Thanks Alec! When I saw that my leave sucked ass I did hale mary strat (priming nade inside hut), and went for the 3rd nade boost, the only way it would make up time (fortunately it worked in this run

)
About the nade strat, if I ever use it it'll be for 34 or 35. My current goal is to get 22 and 38 to clean up the leaderboards, and only play 00 again if I go for WR or untied, which I don't think it's currently a good idea for my skill level, so it didn't seem like the right choice to go for some scrubbed off nade strat for 38 (plus I think tank is fun!!).
This amount of grind from literally zero to a 88 pointer doesnt seem bad at all

especially considering that the grind was, indeed, longer than expected. (not that I thought I would 100% cake it, but total 8h from NA I could've acheived it with my standard paces/completions, and at 4h on my B-complete 38 fail, could've fluked it)
Might as well post the vid here too!
