This star was the one I expected the least to happen. I was stuck on this star for multiple weeks on and off trying. The blj is pure insanity. You need a nearly perfect angle and just the right amount of speed, because if you have too much you will bounce off the OOB wall. I wasn't able to get it even once for the longest time and when I got it once it was just luck and I couldn't replicate it from another savestate. I spent soooo much time practicing and trying to find better strats and at some point I got it at least from time to time. The remaining part of the star also took me quite a while to figure out and I even wanted to give up again because getting all those other reds after the blj seemed not possible. After a lot more practice I decided to start attempts and I had 9 super painful chokes past the blj, especially the ones to the arches hurt a lot. Also at the end I take an intended lavabounce, because I found an invis on the second stone, which softlocks you. I am so glad I hit that in practice, imagine losing an actual attempt to that... ~katze789
