Advanced Strat

These strats are not safe in the slightest and hard the hardest to master or even get good at. Advanced strats skip animations a lot faster by attempting to skip Bowser's animations as soon as possible, if not, instantly. It also includes as many insta-hits on Bowser as possible as well.
