Well, there's some evidence of planning here. Looks like the notes mention the spread between Singe fights having been 28 seconds, but I take it that's part your execution and not a direct result of theoretical best play resulting in different times.

Yup, it's a ktwo run, and it should be given an

You can only attack when Singe blows a low puff. Whether a puff is high or low is RNG that's not possible to manipulate (at least with the current knowledge). It seems like it's slightly more likely to get a high puff than a low puff, but it's close to a coin toss.

The few things you can do to impact fight are:
- Launch a volley at the start of the fight. This adds a bit of risk, because you can end up in an unwinnable situation. The time save is worth it though, so I always do it.
- Try to take out the baby dragons as early as possible. They can otherwise block your shots when you have the chance to attack.
- End the fight with a forward-jump. This is risky and there are some requirements for getting it to work. I was lucky and got it in this run.
Ah, I missed that part.
