A/V Quality - Now I can hear this awful music in high quality. Good I guess?
No cheating here.
The Hard Knuckle glitch was new to me. Seemed to save a lot of time. The run looked like your typical Mega Man run. This run seems to be much better than the current run on the site given that it's faster by 2 minutes, especially now that the route starts with Metal Man.

My timing would be 0:05 from first input to 18:53 last input = 18:48 (current one is 20:07)
The video and audio quality is much better than the current one.
The most important change is the route: this run starts with Metal Man and abuses some kind of AI glitch on Metal Man I didnt know about, killing him easily.
This enables him to use Metal Blade in some situations that speed up the run overall, the current one couldnt because it started with Air Man.
This run has less lags and overall a better play style and maneuvering. This is especially visible in Metal Mans and Clash Mans stage.
This run also uses some kind of placement glitch similar to other MM runs, like on NES, with the Hard Knuckle weapon. He can skip entire screens and save a lot of time like this, especially in Wilys stage.
Some other points this run does better than the current one:
- Wood Shield for Air Man stage makes for a faster level
- 3 sec Air Man fight (in current one it takes really long with issues)
- on the last enemy before the boss door to Clash Man, the current run takes 2 times damage while the new one only takes 1 times damage
- Metal Blade is used in the beginning of Magnet Mans stage, which reduces lags and looks really good
- the new run does get the E can in Needle Mans stage, while the current one gets it in Hard Mans stage -> Needle Mans stage seems faster and with less lags
- this run uses Quint Item on final boss which is faster
- overall this run uses less E cans
For me, its a clear ACCEPT. Congratulations to the runner for such a fine executed and fast MM GB run. More of it!

Again I am slow to respond, sorry to the runner.
WOW this a good run. To any viewer who is fairly knowledgeable of speedrunning mega man games, this is a good one to watch. You will enjoy.
