Firstly, I'd like to say thanks to some people, I couldn't have done this run without their help. They are: GodModeGod, who bring the high jump and regenerating magic into the speedrun and gave me many good suggestions to save time; MistryMan, who have tried his own speedrun and I learned a lot from his, especially the combat strategy; RJWaters2 and kevbew63, who provided me some useful skips here and there; And ballofsnow, who guided me through submitting the run.

Before watching the run, I'd like to explain some time saving skills:

• Quick roll: Use square attack to cancel the roll and use the roll to cancel the square. You can simply do it with holding the right analog and press square repeatly.
• Regenerating magic: Created by GMG. At Typhon's Cave, after Typhon says,"Get out of my sight!". Turn back to the place you start crossing the brige, jump towards the grapple and swing back, then you will acquire the regen magic.(end after acquiring CR)
• High jump: The revolutionary method in GoW2 speedrun, also created by GMG. Launch(hold triangle) or Icarus Ascension, switch sub weapon, then you can use Icarus Lift to add height.
• Upgrade high jump: The same as high jump, you can get the effect by upgrading CR or hammer instead of switching sub weapon.
• Infinite high jump: Based on high jump, use hammer's air L1 to add height, then switch sub weapon to use it again, and so on.

You can see more details about these skills in SDA forum.

• Segment 1

  Use grab and PR(Poseidon's Rage) to kill the soldiers, remain 1 PR for Colossus1. Colossus1, very easy, PR*3.

• Segment 2

  Colossus2, Spirit of Hercules + double PR, be careful of the right timing of double PR.

• Segment 3

  Spirit + PR to kill all the soldiers in the hall, ignoring the archers. The jumps on the beam is a bit risky, need some practice.

• Segment 4

  Colossus3, could have been better if I launch his hand early in the small cutscene. Also get some trouble in Hades, disturbing by the hands.

• Segment 5

  The first Pegasus section, use shoulder collision to kill the enemies. Restart at 2:09 to avoid killing by the dark rider.

• Segment 6

  1:06 use X to throw the archer. 1:10 climb to the left corner, stand and side roll across the ledge.

• Segment 7

  Typhon's breath will not affect you if you get the right timing to cross the bridge. And I got the regenerating magic after this segment.

• Segment 8

  Use the regen magic to kill the gorgons and the harpies. And use RotT to kill the Minotaurs after aquiring RotT.

• Segment 9

  The second Pegasus section, basically the same as the first. Just use X to rush in the combat agaist the dark rider, you don't need to do any damage on him.

• Segment 10

  Get the body, kick the hounds away and leave. Cerberus = skip.

• Segment 11

  0:59 killing all the sentries by just one archer throw is a bit lucky. Siren widow = skip(by RJWaters2).

• Segment 12

  With the regenerating magic, Theseus became a fool. Just shoot the silly old man to dead. I lost the regen magic after this segment.

• Segment 13

  Nothing special, a tedious segment.

• Segment 14

  CR(Cronus Range) for the guardians and RotT for the Minotaurs.

• Segment 15

  The combat agaist Cyclops + boars. Basically, OH(hold O when the enemy is in air) the boars and throw them to the Cyclops. Hold your position, don't let the Cyclops grab the boars. The boars are your main weapon in this combat.

• Segment 16

  B.King, Stage 1: RotT rape + CR. Stage 2: grab. Stage 3: Spirit + CR/roll tricking, don't care about the health too much. Stage 4: RotT. I got the hammer in this segment, the most powerful weapon!

• Segment 17

  Beast Lords and Cyclops: OH collision. Hades Fiends: CR*5(by MistryMan). Body room: move the body into the water and kill the Hades Fiends to gain some EXP.

• Segment 18

  TM1(Titan Minotaur 1) was raped by RotT hammer + bow cancel. Carry the soldier to the Conveyor Belt, ignoring that silly gorgon. Cerberus: hammer time.

• Segment 19

  The first upgrade jump is used here at 0:58, you need to get the right timing to jump across the barrier.

• Segment 20

  Standard strategy agaist Euryale, show time for hammer. Stage1: RotT hammer. Stage2: hammer stun loop. Stage2: RotT hammer again.

• Segment 21

  Another tedious segment. Use half swings in the 5 pillars puzzle can save a little time. TM2: rape it with RotT hammer again.

• Segment 22

  Nothing special. The amount of red orbs you get from the red orb gift is quite random, load the game if you are not content. Upgrade EH to lv2 for the next segment.

• Segment 23

  The second upgrade jump is used here to skip getting the block.

• Segment 24

  Guardians before the secret message can be skipped if you can jump far enougth. Perseus, stage 1&2: hammer. Stage 3: Hammer + Bow pushing + CR trick. Stage 4: CR + hammer.

• Segment 25

  Get to the upper platform with chain. BE CAREFUL here, BE QUICK! Or the game will FREEZE after you reflect the light, the only way to continue is to reset your PS2. I can use normal high jump after getting SoD in this segment. Use high jump to cross the lowland without moving the statue(by kevbew63).

• Segment 26

  Just skip all the combats with high jump.

• Segment 27

  Long jump with SoD + glide to cross the "river"(by MistryMan). Nymph nest = skipp. The little challenge after AQ: flash + AQ(gorgon's rage is better, but my red orbs are not enough to upgrade lv3 EH).

• Segment 28

  Upgrade EH to lv3 and use it to crush all the beast lords. There is a mistake in this part. I should have jumped into the Boreas Chamber at 3:53 to skip the cut scene. That will save about 5 sceonds. I knew that but I just fogot to do so.

• Segment 29

  Stone the enemies in wave 2 and carry the silly translator to leave. Wave 3: MP is important, you can stone all the enemies if you use EH efficiently.

• Segment 30

  Grabs in the spike trap. Use glide to pass the ledge.

• Segment 31

  Sirens: hammer + bow cancel. Nymph nest: CR to avoid being disturbed by the Nymphs. 1:26 - that cutscene can be skipped if you jump and CR the ice from the doorway(by kevbew63), but I didn't know this at that moment, pity.

• Segment 32

  0:43, pull the switch in the cutscene(by MistryMan). 4:10, skip the Cyclops(by RJWaters2).

• Segment 33

  High jump and skip the spike elevator(by MistryMan). Cross the ceilling with RotT, be sure that you have enough health, or you will be killed by those crazy archers.

• Segment 34

  High jump to skip raising the phoenix. Infinite jump to pass the elevator before the Spartan without the block. Spartan: hammer rape. Kraken: bow shoot for stage 1 and air hammer triangle*2 for stage 2.

• Segment 35

  Bell puzzle = skip(by RJWaters2). Sisters: hammer, and I recommend AQ in stage 3.

• Segment 36

  Infinite jump strikes! Note that it's faster to fight than to "skip" in the small waves like waves 2, 4 and 6. I skipped wave 4 because the barrier there will not disappear if you skip wave 3(you can see just 3 enemies spawned there, not 7 as usual, and sometimes no enemy will spawn).

• Segment 37

  Multi-breasted sista...... Use high jump to skip floor 2.

• Segment 38

  The final combat agaist Zeus. Stage 1: CR + Divine Retribution. Stage 2 phase 1&3: RotT + triangle. Stage 2 phase 2: CR + Spirit, things may go better if Zeus did not block my attacks.

So that's all of my run, hope that you enjoyed watching, thank you!
