Great video, one additional thing to include, that i havent updated that doc with yet, is that there is a decently-consistent way to Sawcon a Hideous mass, try aiming on the lower belly and fire saws from a close but not too up close distance. I prefer this on the (new) Double Hideous Mass / balconies pattern than that one where it's placed on the balcony itself. It seems pretty consistent now that i've learned where to place the magnets on the HiM and from what distance to fire the saws at. It's crucial to do it before it goes into the clap/tail attack phases.

[@gLud3]

ty mr big ledraps for yet another sawcon proverb :pray:

[@forgetfullplatinum]

You can kill 1 hm by just using the saws to hit its tail 1 put saws infront of hm 2 go around behind him this will make the hm to face you letting the saws to do their job very fast hm can't even enrage when you do this or just y'know do rail coining to do it faster ut a little less reliable if you suck at rail coining

Great vid glud! I’ve been using a mix of the regular magnet nail gun plus the saw overheat, and this is really helpful for positioning. Thanks for compiling this info in an easy to watch place!

[@jaedii7287]

Thank you for telling us the best locations for my Sawcons! 🙏🙏🔥

[@fumoaddict3526]

imo you dont need blue sawgun at all, blue nailgun still instantly cooks the pizza and just shooting some nails + magnet + overheat saw is half the total damage of the sawcon but takes less time (meaning you can use other weapons in the meantime) and lets you keep the blue nailgun

I'm actually pretty happy to see someone cover how surprisingly decent the sawblade launcher can be as I tried it a while ago since I was curious how good it'd be since it's kinda ass in normal play (not counting bosses) and I ended up breaking round 30 which while not impressive in a grandscheme sort of way, breaking my previous pb without really intending to surpassed my expectations and now I don't play cybergrind without it lol

yea sawblade launcher is WAY stronger in cybergrind than in normal game

[@JasonBrose-gv6po]

According to the wiki, Sawcon stands for "sawblade controversy" due to its first unpatched form having a glitch that let you instakill guys (kinda like the Sharpshooter). As such, many people are unsure of its status as a valid tech in speedruns. Does it stand for Sawblade Controversy or Sawblade Convention?

[@ProfessionalEepyHead]

I think i came to the conclusion that the overheat saw is better as they could hit enemies while your doing everything else or being off stage and no matter what you’re doing, it will keep out putting damage even when not deployed which is prob why it only has one charge

[@gLud3]

we love overheat saw in this household

[@ProfessionalEepyHead]

@@gLud3 i still wont use the blue saws since the silver nails have their own properties and having 2 saw launchers could be lacking in defensive situations where you just go back and spam nails and the silver saws just disapear to fast and does to little damage

You may wonder why it’s called sawcon, well, it’s because sawcon was a real thing! But it was on the saw movies, not actual saws. It was founded by 2 people named Candice and Joe who were big fans of the saw series. The magnum opus of the convention was when they recreated the updog trap from the movies! Sadly, sawcon was closed shortly after its creation due to a ligma outbreak.
