About Me
第6回 FINAL FANTASY RTA 駅伝
I submitted to the 6th Nico Ekiden! If selected, I will race in a relay through FF4, 5, 6, 9, 12, and 15 with fellow Final Fantasy runners in the Nico community!
Hey, I'm Roosta, a graduate student from the USA. I love watching speedruns of Final Fantasy games while working. I began my speedrunning career with FFX (because it's easy) but couldn't maintain doing runs (because of how long and boring it is). I have since moved on to running FFX-2, FFXII, and FFXIII. Of these, I found FFXII to be the most interesting because of the difficulty and flexibility of the route. With a variety of route adjustments and optimizations, I was able to push the best time of FFXII Any% from 6:3x to sub 6:00.
I also enjoy playing CSGO and Go (Igo/Baduk/Weiqi), and may occasionally stream these.

Pastebins
I maintain a few pastebins to keep track of things that are important to me:

This record shows important ideas in the FFXII speedrun and who discovered/invented them.

This is a record of who has lost runs to which random enemies throughout the run.
