Edit: What is that 12 hours referring to?
I guess 12 hrs of continuous attempts?
What is crazy is that it's now *visibly* confirmed that sub-hour is still "humanly possibly" possible with 5 minutes of mistakes.

Congratulations! Can't wait to see how it was pulled off compared to your :56 and :55 and Miles' runs. Cooperating bosses (lol shegoth)? Better execution? New strats (LSJF)? This will be a delight!
^This :)

New strats (LSJF)?
That's the last 2 seconds that you would want to save in a SS speedrun. oh wait, 2 pool Omega Pirate is still harder on console than leftwards SJF.
So, when's the video up? I hope you recorded it??
Watched this last night. Woooooo!
Compared to the :55 this is much smoother/faster and the bosses go much better in general. The frigate escape being only ~1s slower than your PB (WR?) shows that this is fast all around. There are a couple of mistakes/silly bad luck - but they give the run character! Preshooting the Control Tower door is a nice addition. How often does one get lucky and get a PB refill?
Watch this run people.
Hehehe. Well T3 (who discovered it) just 2 weeks ago posted a video where it was done repeatedly and consistantly. But runners should not be pressured into using riskier strats (especially in a SS run) except by other runners with lower times, or themselves.
Edit: Sorry for bringing this up. Please let the focus be on the :54 !!!

MP2 also a bit MP1 speedrunning
Oh god, i cant imagine someone doing LSJF in a ss run, it only saves like 1,5 seconds or even less, i think if you want to save some time there then you should go for perfecting the normal SJF strat, i dont think ive ever seen anyone do it optimally before, but that applies for several places, lwsj isnt the thing to improve on, theres always some movement stuff.

Are you talking about this video? He posted that three years ago.
Amazing job, T3! Haven't yet watched most of this run but I will soon.
