Mega Man 4 is known for extremely long meter filling. However, damaging a boss while it's life meter is filling will cause the animation to instantly complete. There are two points in the run where this can be done. Tako Trash (Wily 2 boss) Wily Machine ph...

Double Hits You can hit an enemy with the charged orb over Mega Man's head, despawning the orb, and then still fire a full charged shot. Technically, you fire the same charge level the orb was when it despawned, so be aware of this against bosses (mainly Brig...

For the two routes (Pharoah First or Bright First), there are two strategies for this screen. For either one, note that Mega Man might sink slightly between slides if your timing is not perfect. Expect to have a small hop every 3 to 5 slides. Bright First T...

While Dr. Wily's pattern is RNG, randomness in Mega Man 9 and 10 is determined by number of frames since beam-in. As such, if you always move to Wily in EXACTLY the same way, you will always get the same pattern. This often seems like weird unnecessary movemen...

Hold A on Beam In At stage start (or other beam ins, like the teleporter room), hold A to immediately jump right (or left). Holding the direction creates a few frames of "start up" walking animation. "Buffering" the jump saves a few seconds across the run. J...

Rain Screen Manip As mentioned in RNG Manipulation - moving the same way through a screen to the frame, and killing the same number of enemies, results in the same RNG value. Movement through the rain screen (holding A to jump at beam in) and not stopping res...
