'''World Record Strat - 0:46 Written by David Clemens'''
   −
Begin in either strafe and go straight through the pool room. Turn right once you're out and take as direct of a path as you can to the stair hallway. Open the door going into the Golden Gun room and run against the door in left strafe until it opens, so as to keep full speed. Take the correct tile path (2L, 1U, 3R, 2U, 1L, 1U, 1R, up to the case) as quickly as you can, cutting corners and stuff. I trip the drone guns every once in awhile.

Begin in left strafe, looking at a nomral plane (lookdown doesnt help on this level). Strafe towards the GG room, and make sure not to lag on the pilalr behind you as you do. Also, dont strafe into the wall so much by the GG room door, and try to open it far away. Strafe into the center of the door (so you dont get stuck on it when it opens), and take the correct path through the GG room as tightly as possible, also don't look down here since it lags more I think. I will assume anybody playing for this record knows the right path. When you pick up the Ammo, you can either switch to right strafe or stay in left, it doesn't make a difference really although some players have an easier time switching to right since it gives you a nice angle to open the next door and then switch to left strafe to pick the GG up. If you stayed in left, open the door, switch to right strafe (you probably want to lsoe full speed here, since turning back around is very hard if you kept full speed), then turn around and open the next door.

Strafe around the right side of the case, grabbing the bullets. Open the exit door, strafe back and get the gun, then go through the open door. Open the next door while switching to the Golden Gun. Now fall in left strafe, and fire the gun right after you hit the ground, trying to hit Samedi. I hit him with my first shot around 4% of the time. Continue firing from far away if you miss; just know you lost any chance at 0:46. Once he's dead, strafe to the pool room so you can see where he appears, then get as far away as you can while still being able to see him.

Fr the first Baron, align the center of the screen with around the left side of the pillar, and veer downwards just a little bit. The idea here is to shoot the first Baron as early as you possibly can, though it does not have to be frame perfect. If you miss him, quit out. Now strafe towards the left and , as quickly as possible, face towards where the 2nd baron appears. Stand between the two pillars closest to the wall, and if you dont see the explosion right after you arrive that means the first baron died a bad death, and you more than likely wont have any chance at 46 (thugh can easily get 47). If it doesn't appear within a second of arriving or so, just quit out unless you want a time around 48 (kneeling death first baron). Now wait till the explosion fades, and just as it is about to fade run forward. Right as you are about to go between the two pillars on the opposite side of the room, shoot the 2nd Baron. Do not wait untill you are actually between them. Try to aim just to the right of the far pillar that covers part of the explosion. Now strafe to the right and towards the secret door to the last baron. As the screen darkens if you killed the 2nd baron successfully, you will see it. Open it up as far away as you can, and strafe past it, turn around and nicely enter the hole. If you strafe into the hole right away, theres a good chance you will get stuck on it and lose any chance at 46.

Once he laughs again, you can shoot. It's actually a little before he laughs; play the level a lot to get the timing down. Try to hit him in the body, then immediately start strafing for the secret door. By the time you get there, the level should've darkened and Baron should've laughed again. Go through the secret door and down the drone hallway in left strafe. If you strafe past them, the drones will never hit you. Turn left in left strafe and fire a shot into the middle of the smoke, hoping to hit Samedi. I hit him first try around 20% of the time. If you missed, get closer to see where he is, then fire again. If you hit, make sure he's dying (if not, shoot him again), then wait a few seconds for him to die?

On Agent, Baron doesn't have too much health. A limb shot can kill him the first time, a body shot the second time, and a body shot the third time (usually). You will be waiting for the second Baron to become susceptible to damage, as well as for the third one to die. Usually he dies pretty fast, but every once in awhile he'll die really slowly, ruining the run.

Now for the last baron, aim at or just below the normal plane of view. As you approach the corner, try to switch to left strafe and huge the wall as much as possible when you turn, as you want to take a very tight turn for 46. Just as the center of the screen is aiming at the center of the cloud of smoke, shoot your GG and hope it hits the last Baron. At first the last Baron will seem like mostly luck, but you will learn later there is indeed a lot of skill to it and you can have 40% or so consistency. Agent is a lot easier, since all you need is a body shot. If you hit him (or even if you didnt, actually), strafe to the left and towards the stairway. If the screen fades around the middle of the stairs, you got a good death and have a good shot at 46. If it fades at the bottom, you won't have any chance. Best deaths dont happen very often, so for that reason 46 may take a while, but keep at it even if you keep getting bad deaths right at the end. Good luck!
