Colosseum

World record runs require "passable" video quality. This will be judged on a case by case basis as it is hard to set hardline rules for all variables in video, but good rules to keep in mind to ensure verification are:

• Full, unedited video; combining switch clips is not acceptable. Combining clips makes runs difficult to verify since the In-Game-Timer is hidden during the final fight.
• In-game audio is required/preferred, and other audio elements are fine
• Full capture of the game's screen, without cropping mistakes
• Overlays such as webcam are allowed, but please avoid covering the in-game timer or HUD elements
• Excessive frame drops may cause the run to be invalidated
• Recording using a phone or webcam is acceptable; here's an example of acceptable webcam proof: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1447745216

All other runs require at least image proof; here's an example of image proof:

Amiibo are banned

Using Out of Bounds for a glitched Meta Knight Cup Time is banned

Buffs means you're using items bought from Item-Shop Waddle Dee such as Life Up, Attack Boost, and Speed Boost, or using Deep Sleep to acquire these buffs. If a run begins without buffs and then uses Deep Sleep's full duration, it will be counted as a run with buffs.

No Buffs means you're using none of these at any point in the run.

Co-op

The rules for the Co-op categories are identical to their 1P counterpart with the exception that 2P(2 Players 2 Controllers) Is allowed.

Main Page Glitches

Kirby And The Forgotten Land is a really well-built game, but under the surface it's a game filled to the brim with glitches. A fair amount of glitches are used in speedruns for this game(primarily Hammer Super Jumps) and there is also a lot of smaller, but still interesting glitches for you to look at.
