Cape Categories
In All Castles, stay Fire Mario at the end to fast swap to cape in Forest of Illusion 1.
There isn't a huge difference in time between these two strats, it generally comes down to runner preference.
Room 2 Fire
This strat makes it easier to get through the second room safely, but is slightly slower than flying through the room optimally.

Room 3 Fire
This strat is faster when done properly, however it is easier to lose time or cape cancel into a lava pit.

Fast Room 1
The trick may be tight, but with practice it can be somewhat consistent. If Mario scrapes the wall or floor, wait out the bony beetle instead.

Forward Scroll Strat backup - If you don't succeed in keeping the beetle awake it's easy to see and you can just wait it out.
