In the Kirby speedrunning community, KSS is notorious for being a difficult speedrun compared to the rest of the Kirby series. The game has a high skill ceiling and has a lot of fast-paced gameplay. In addition, KSS is very RNG-heavy. [[KSS/Battle Windows]] and [[KSS/Marx]] have the potential for ending runs late in the game, and [[Great Cave Offensive (Any%)|Great Cave Offensive Any%]] is a high reset area due to a string of potential RNG-related time losses. Getting a top time in Kirby Super Star requires immense dedication and is not for the fainthearted. | In the Kirby speedrunning community, KSS is notorious for being a difficult speedrun compared to the rest of the Kirby series.

For those who want a casual speedrunning experience and aren't aiming for top times, Kirby Super Star is a great speedrun to try. Despite the seemingly overwhelming amount of tricks there are to learn, they are only optional and are not necessary to get enjoyment from KSS speedruns. There are many beginner-friendly routes that co-exist with the difficult ones, and there is no shame in taking routes that are easier to digest for those who are just looking for more replay value out of KSS. | For those who want a casual speedrunning experience and aren't aiming for top times, Kirby Super Star is a great speedrun to try.
