Description:
My first episode speedrun for Sigil.

Quite slow obviously, a few mistakes, but a lot of time can be saved by improving the route and being a bit more familiar with enemy placement and so on.

E3M1: I go and get the soulsphere secret at the start, it's not too important but it also lets you skip some part which is nice.

E3M2: 200 health right at the beginning means the start here is pretty comfortable as long as you don't die to the initial shotgunners.

E3M3: It's difficult to get around the monsters on this level, some luck is needed. I also fell off the at some point, woops. Got lucky with the baron getting out of my way though at the exit.

E3M4: There are some crushers where their pattern is a little bit difficult to get the hang of, and you're probably dead if you end up under them. So I do 2 linedef skips to avoid them completely. It's also possible to skip over the keybars by only going the crusher section.. perhaps worth looking into, does require a rocket jump though.

E3M5: Tough map, there's not much health and I wonder how difficult this one will be on nightmare. Thankfully there is 1 berserk pack, lucky enough to reach it considering the damage rolls I took before it.

E3M6: The start of this map can be difficult, but the middle part of it should be simple enough. I am not too sure about the ending, I have a feeling that cyberdemon can hit you from the ground if you are unlucky, hasn't happened so far. For nightmare it might be better to delay the invulnerability even further.

E3M7: Plenty of resources at the start, but then gets really difficult towards the end. I think managing my ammo better could improve this a lot.

E3M8: Thankfully a straightforward and simple map to finish it off, I don't like failing on the last level :)

Overall I really enjoyed this WAD, the speedrun on UV and especially on nightmare will be interesting. I will try to improve this and do a nightmare run.
