WR of the year 2019!
01/06/20 at 05:06:27

I'm a bit late this year, but here we are... Smiley

The question as always, which 2019 WR impressed you the most? Can be for various reasons. Feel free to pick one for both systems, they're different games after all. Also tune in for a little extra at the bottom of this post. Wink

For full disclosure the winners in previous years:
2015: KB1 45"76 by Sportsguy001
2016: DP2 1'24"97 (incl. 16"77 WR flap) by KVD
2017: MC2 12"02 PAL by ScouB & VL2 45"99 NTSC by KVD
2018: KB2 10"25 PAL & MC3 1'22"75 NTSC by ScouB

Eventhough there was no official poll or anything it seems that ScouB's KB2 flap on PAL and his MC3 5-lap on NTSC got mentioned the most in last year's topic.

Onto the candidates for 2019 (as in previous years ties are not considered for a new WR of the year). There are actually quite a few very strong contenders and I found it hard to pick. Especially for PAL where very long standing WRs were broken (MC1 and DP3), a new face appeared on the WR charts (hi Lafungo) and Chris Wild surprised us all with his destruction of DP2 flap...not to mention ScouB getting new barriers on MC3 with the pipeboost strats...

PAL
MC1 11"22 KVD
CI1 53"55 Lafungo
DP2 16"71 Wild
MC3 1'25"70 ScouB
MC3 16"74 ScouB
DP3 1'15"36 Aron

NTSC
GV1 11"63 KVD
BC1 1'25"25 KVD
MC4 1'29"14 KVD
MC4 17"45 KVD
DP3 1'12"97 ScouB
DP3 14"19 KVD
KB2 9"97 ScouB

If you have an opinion here, please state why you thought that particular WR was worthy of special praise. It's always fun to read that back years later. Smiley

Ps: I thought it could also be cool to nominate a WR of the decade (2010s). It turns out 79 out of the 80 WRs are eligible for that prize! Shocked

The only WR that wasn't improved in the previous decade was my BC3 5-lap on NTSC. And ScouB already scored two new WRs within this new decade. But essentially it's still as if you're choosing what you think is the best WR out of all of them, ever.

Yorkshire SMK, who does not appear to have a forum account here, posted this in the 'not so secret WhatsApp group'. Cheesy

Quote:

"11"22 MC1 is sick but is a stepping stone to the final WRs

11"63 is the only WR that combines a decade of Lore, magnanimous torment, a set of Loch Ness monster memes, and a final resolution that feels complete which only the bravest and maddest would wish to challenge it again

For this reason I nominate 11"63 GV1 NTSC from February 2019 👍"

Maybe best records of the side charts including GV no platforms etc. Also a well done to Tttmario-san in that case for the 0'59"49 WR tie on the NTSC side too.

NTSC is an easy pick indeed, that 11"63 was just TASesque and would also be a good candidate to WR of the decade.

On PAL I would also pick MC1 11"22 especially because it has been driven by a non-Sami Karter Cheesy

but also because it contains super hard strats to perform.
Nonetheless the other WRs performed are great, lafungo making his appearance on the charts and with style as he managed to quickly regain his lost WR and by a significant margin. Chris Wild destroyed DP2 flap by 0"06 which is to be highlighted for sure, etc.

It is perhaps a bit safe or boring to lean so heavily towards the flaps as I do, but after having watched and rewatched all candidates, it will have to be flaps all around.
Not only that, it will also all be the same blokey bloke I'm afraid.

NTSC: GV1 11'63 - KVD
PAL: MC1 11'22 - KVD

And if there is a nomination for the decade, it would also have to be GV1 11'63. That flap is just simply done. The very epitome of squeezing blood out of a rock, or ghosts out of a valley, or whatever applies, this flap in terms of the chrono, could be perfection.

Is it time to put out a bounty for a 11'59 TAS? Roll Eyes

Could've done honorable mentions to so many, but as the Norwegians say: Nobody mentioned, nobody forgotten Cool

Oh yeah, on the PAL side, I'll also go with a Karel flap, the MC1 one of course. For me any low 11"2x was Sami-esque and nobody else would have been able to even tie his WR.

I am still a bit surprised that ScouB hasn't tried the Wall Ride Boost on MC1 because my supervision told me that the TT MC1 Trick/Glitch WRs will be 56"9x - 10"9x PAL & 54"9x - 10"6x NTSC.

Flat boost last turn then jump in sand and wall ride boost (end of lap 1, 2, 3 and 4)-- practice?!!

PAL
MC1 11"22 KVD

PJ+FB-HB, need I say more? If I do then beating Sami on MC1, need I say more still?

NTSC
KB2 9"97 ScouB

I remember how happy Billy was with his 9"99, so this must be something special (tbh they all look the same to me, top level KB2 laps that is, not French people).

I would have given the NTSC one to Karel's 11"63 GV1 but since that time is impossible and there is no vid of it then I can't. But a 0"04 wr on that lap would be amazing if it were actually possible.

I actually already tried for flap and it didn't seem to win any.
For middle lap you lose speed so it's not viable
