A strategy for a quick kill on Arrghus where you use a sword-out itemdash with the hookshot to quickly kill all the puffs before Arrghus does a hurricane cycle. Saves ~6-7 seconds. More info: https://alttp-wiki.net/index.php/Arrghus ~ https://pastebin.com/upKVW3Xw |
1.0 jpjp1.0japanese |
Japanese 1.0 is the version of ALttP most commonly used for speedrunning since the Japanese version contains less text (saves ~1 minute in NMG), and a few minor glitches like fake flippers, item dash, superspeed, and block-erase only exist in version 1.0 (saves ~30-40s in NMG). |

airpumping airpump |
A technique to optimize Link's walking patterns. When walking diagonally to the north or west and at an angle of less than 45 degrees, you can mash diagonals into the air to boost pixels. Like wallpumping, this is merely a frame-saving technique in most instances, due to human limitations on mashing. |

antipumping antipump |
When walking east or south, Link's movement begins on the 1 pixel per frame speed of his animation. This means you do not want to reset his walking speed by wallpumping, airpumping, or stairpumping. You always want to avoid altering your input while moving south or east, as any change can slow Link down by resetting the movement sequence. Generally speaking, if you're moving south or east, you want to minimize the number of inputs you use to do so. |

Blue balls (bb) refers to an attack Agahnim makes. This attack is undesired since it can't be repelled back at him, unlike the yellow ball (yb) attack. The first Agahnim fight consists of repeating cycles of the following five attacks: 1.[yb] 2.[yb or bb] 3.[yb or bb] 4.[yb or bb] 5.[lightning]. Agahnim is defeated after being hit by 6 yellow balls. See bb% for probabilities. |

Buane's gentle voice resonated in the serene mediation temple he was streaming in. Far off, the harmonious thrum of a prayer-bowl and a Buddhist temple bell could be heard. "Triumph through gentleness, not strength" he murmured, his pleasant chocolate baritone soothing the nerves of his audience. "True victory is kindness. Wrath and desire are paths towards defeat" he explained. He breathed deeply, aligning his chakras before entering the Agahnim fight. |

If you die in a Dark World dungeon without beating Aga 1, your world variable will be switched to Light World. This creates a conflict that we call "Fake Dark World" which can result in some undesirable effects like boss crystals not dropping (if their corresponding LW dungeon has been completed) or putting you in LW after a screen transition. These can be resolved by mirroring in the overworld. |

Low%: Beat the game using the minimal items required to finish the game. There are 2 main NMG variations: 3-Heart and Legacy. 3-Heart uses a minor glitch to "delete" heart containers from bosses such that you finish the run with 3 hearts. Legacy does not skip these hearts. See !3heartlow and !legacylow for more info. |

A Mirror Jump involves hopping a ledge and using the Magic Mirror at the same time. The usual intended effect (on the overworld) is to shift Link's position by 1px where it would not otherwise be possible. This is most commonly applied in the Any% No EG category to rescue the frog/dwarf without the Titan's Mitts. More info here: https://alttp-wiki.net/index.php/Mirror_Jumps |

pumping pump |
Pumping is a small movement optimization technique which saves ~10s over an Any% NMG run. There are several types (see: airpumping, stairpumping, wallpumping), but all involve attempting to reset Link's normal movement pattern such that more pixels are gained per frame. The most beneficial types of pumping are double pumping (in one-tile wide spots where Link has walls on either side) and pumping in shallow water. |

The following set of glitches are NOT allowed in this ruleset: Exploration Glitch, Door Glitches, Wrong Warps, and Misslotting. This ruleset exists as a friendly bridge between No Major Glitches and Unrestricted (All Major Glitches). |

By releasing a sword spin and pressing the A-button the first frame after release, Link will be put into a glitched state and cannot use his sword. If you touch manual stairs and exit without Stair Drag canceling, Link will move at dashing speed with the ability to change directions. Just as with hookdash, pressing A, changing screens, or jumping off a ledge will end the glitched state. JP v1.0 only. |

stairdrag |
While moving on manual staircases, Link moves slower than normal. At the end of these stairs, you can restore Link's normal speed earlier than usual by tapping LEFT for at least 1 frame, tapping A (with boots) for at least 1 frame or by tapping RIGHT for at least 2 frames. Optimally, this can save 9 or 10 frames per manual staircase exit. (Note: You won't be able to get superspeed if you cancel stair drag) |
stairlag |
When exiting a staircase, Link will walk slowly for a short period of time. To prevent this, you can tap LEFT for at least 1 frame, tap A (with boots) for at least 1 frame or tap RIGHT for at least 2 frames before continuing with regular movement. |
stairpumping stairpump |
While walking on a staircase or ladder in which you still retain control of Link's movement, you can pump diagonals when walking north on them. The normal animation for climbing stairs/ladders contains a lot of 0 pixel per frame movement, so pumping these ladders to avoid such frames is very important. Even if you do no other pumping, you should incorporate stairpumping into your movement, since it saves more than just a handful of frames. |

superspeed |
By having a medallion or hookshot equipped and hitting the Y-button and the A-button at the same frame (or using a spindash), you activate a glitched walking state. By climbing stairs that you can manually move up and down and exiting them without canceling Stair Drag, you will gain dash speed while walking. This activated state is called superspeed. The effect is active until canceled by pressing the A-button, taking damage, changing screen, or jumping off a ledge. JP v1.0 only. Tutorial by SuperSKUJ: https://youtu.be/Pvmi5DuR9rA |

Sword Buffering is performed by pressing a direction and pressing B the next frame. Since using your sword will interrupt all D-Pad inputs it allows you to hold the dpad for longer than 1 frame but you move for only 1 frame if executed properly. |

By holding out the sword first then performing a hookdash (itemdash with hookshot) on stairs you will be able to climb the stairs with the same speed as walking whilst holding out the sword on flat ground. If the sword spin is released before exiting the stairs, you will also have superspeed afterwards. JP v1.0 only. |

wallpumping wallpump |
A technique that optimizes Link's walking pattern. When walking cardinally to the west or north, Link's movement begins on the 2 pixel speed, and changes to the directional input will reset his movement speed back to the beginning of the sequence. Therefore, if walking north or west along a wall, you can mash diagonals into the wall to repeatedly reset Link's movement to the 2 pixel speed and avoid the slower 1 pixel speed in the sequence. |
