The Iron Door Speedruns

General

Iron door speedruns are both massively luck-based and fast-paced, making it difficult to get a placing in the top 3. There are multiple tips, however, to get a faster time in the map.

Tip 1: Level Progression

One of the main drawbacks about speedrunning Iron Door is that levels 1-5 are controlled by random teleports, which means 2 people doing the map at the same time won't have the same levels. Listed here are the first 5 levels and what level types they have.

Level 1 - Amazing Insight - Bench Press A - Bench Press B - Rock Solid -

Level 2 - Bench Press - Flamingle - Roll With It - Su Door Ku -

Level 3 - Amazing Insight - Bench Press - Elementary -

Level 4 - Bench Press - Rock Solid - Roll With It -

Level 5 - Amazing Insight - Elementary - Flamingle

Amazing Insight, Su Door Ku, and Flamingle Level 5 are automatic run-killers, as any encounter with these levels takes far more time than the others to speedrun. /kill whenever you see these. Mostly any order of the rest will get you under 2 minutes if fast enough, although to get the fastest progression through Iron Door requires fast clicking. The level speed is (with fast clicks/perfect execution) Bench Press -> Roll With It -> Elementary -> Rock Solid -> Elementary. Bench Press is good to settle on if fast-clicking is difficult for levels 2-4, though. Level 5 is a must with Elementary.

Tip 2: Faster Cart-ing

Level 6 is the unavoidable Cartesian Coordination, which requires you to use a Minecart to speed through the level. Once you get the minecart click lower on the downward rails and ride in it to get a slightly faster head-start. Holding forward in the direction you want to go makes it faster likewise. Whenever you reach an intersection, press the correct button before you reach the powered rails to go faster down the track.
