Super Monkey Ball - Expert-Master [Deathless/Warpless]

Did this as a reward for myself for getting the perfect on E40.
This is the 2nd time I have achieved 9999 playpoints on this file so the text at the end is a little different.
I did a run like this on Super Monkey Ball 2: • Super Monkey Ball 2 - ...

It seems for children but it ain't!😉

[@ShiningSilvally]

Physics manipulation is much more difficult than Dark Souls, but that's mainly due to the fact that in DS, you're put at a disadvantage from the beginning, but with SMB, it's just you, your wit, your thumbs at the primary focus(to keep yourself on track), and your hopefully well enough understanding of physics & momentum. In summation, DS is purposely unfair, when SMB is entirely skill-based.

Quick tip for stamina master (master 3) on the thin bridge, you can line yourself up perfectly if you look at the floor tiles. The line between the third and fourth squares should be what you are aiming for.

[@ciaociaociaociaociaociao246]

u gotta be a master to do master duh

[@PokeTube]

Fun fact: Master 3 was originally going to be Exam-C, and Expert 7 was going to be stamina master. *GLAD THEY CHANGED THAT.*

[@DE23]

Actually, it was only shown that Exam C was Master 3. It doesn't necessarily mean they were swapped, Expert 7 could have been something new and Stamina Master would have not existed.

[@papij8834]

It’s true that Exam-C was set to be master 3, but that didn’t particularly mean that stamina master would be expert 7. They would’ve probably used or have created another easy stage for expert 7.

[@macaronifanatic7287]

Still doesn't take away the fact that level 7 made me want to throw my remote out the window.

[@GabeLane612]

For the Expert levels, you just have to beat all 50 without using a continue if you want to progress to the extras. Same going into the the master levels. It's only for the beginner and advance levels where you can't die once. ProTip for anyone reading this.

[@FriendKevo]

Gabriel Lane the moment I learned that was the moment I realized I actually had a chance, and that’s what got me back into playing. It took several failures but I did eventually get to and beat Master. Might’ve died like 100+ times, but I beat it. 😂

[@GabeLane612]

@@FriendKevo I just saw this comment 9 months later, but I am so happy for you that you got to the Master floors! They are seriously challenging, but there is something fun and satisfying about being able to clear them. Especially Master 3 - spiraling down the slide at the end is my favorite part of the entire game!

[@FriendKevo]

@@GabeLane612 oh I never made it to the slide on Master 3, I used the “fling yourself off before the moving grid pieces and pray” strategy 😂

[@GabeLane612]

@@FriendKevo That also works, though a little too inconsistent for my taste ;) then again, beating Master 3 the long way is about as difficult of a task as the game provides. That, Master 9, and trying to cross the narrowest bridge in Expert 9 are all different forms of insanity.

[@tedviscobbins]

Nostalgic asf i used to be a master at this.. some shortcuts i didn’t know about

Unlike Jcool114's all-bananas speedrun, I can totally accept and/or tolerate bonus-skips in this one, since not losing a single life-count seems like a viable reason and/or excuse to me.

[@Infinite_Omniverse]

Mad skills! Wow! I cannot do a Deathless Master myself, I always die on either Master 3 or 9...

[@Allanapolis83232]

But Ultra Heaven 5 is the hardest stage of all Super Monkey Ball games.

[@Infinite_Omniverse]

Allan Bao That one is also hard, yes.

[@peytonreed937]

+Yanna what is the fifth stage of ultra heaven?

[@Allanapolis83232]

A common strategy in completing this level is to avoid landing on the colored pointy tiles as much as possible. This is best done with YanYan, the character with the highest jump rating in the game. In the first half of the stage, the colored tiles can be avoided completely with YanYan by jumping from platform to platform of regular flooring that contain banana bunches, building speed and slowing down when necessary. The next part of the stage is difficult, as you are faced with separate little platforms of colored pointy tiles with no other way around them. Here, you will have to hope for the best while jumping from platform to platform, trying to control your bouncing as much as possible (YanYan is best with this, again making her the best character with this level). After passing these platforms, try to land and keep your balance in the middle of a long strip of colored pointy tiled floor so you can walk between two of the pointy tiles without having to worry about bouncing around. Do this until you meet regular flooring that precedes the final part of the level. The final part of the level involves an uphill slope with booster panels and pointy tiles on the surface of the slope. Here you will have to try your best to land on the booster panels and use it to jump up the slope in a way so your next landing will be on another, higher booster panel, otherwise you will be testing your luck with the pointy tiles. The goal will await at the top of this slope.

[@Infinite_Omniverse]

Peyton Reed Just search on YOutube for "Ultra Heaven 5". It is an unpredictable stage. You have to jump on these orange tiles at one point and they can launch you anywhere they want. It is very hard to predict exactly where to land.

[@Tina67496]

Probably because if you fail them, there's no consequence other than losing the chance for extra bananas to get more lives, and getting lives is pretty much pointless in a no-death run.

[@BubbaPirahnaPlant2009]

[@Allanapolis83232]

Why did you fall off the course in ALL the bonus stages without a goal?

[@scrap651]

Because falling off bonus stages also counts as beating them, and getting the bananas doesn't help in a deathless run so I'd rather not waste the time.

[@Armedvulcanstorm48]

right Scrap, that's always what I do, even when I'm just doing a regular run. I immediately jump off the bonus levels cause I don't really care to collect bananas and its a waste of time. But man, I love this game. Amazing run!!

[@Allanapolis83232]

ZerostrikeX, so does falling off the course on a bonus stage count as passing (if you think collecting bananas wastes time)?

[@Armedvulcanstorm48]

Allan the Hero You just asked that question before and the uploader answered it. but yes to repeat what he said above it does count as passing. See, The bonus stages are just an easy way to rack up extra bananas which in turn gives you more lives for the harder levels. you don’t really need them if you’re good enough. or if you find the bonus stages to be fun you can do them anyway, I just don’t really care for them

[@Allanapolis83232]

But in Banana Blitz and beyond, falling out on a Bonus Stage resets the Clear Score (the number of normal stages consecutively completed without losing on a bonus stage in that streak).
