Shooting the frog and bouncing off it in the last room saves a bit of time since you spend less time jumping up the stairs.  
Even if you're not going for 5-shot, some runners like to do a few of these 45-degree shots and then stay in the middle for the last couple, once the acid drops become harder to avoid. This makes killing Froggy in 6 shots much easier than if you stay in the middle for the whole fight.

== Warps ==
The submarine can be skipped by doing the tongue glitch in this level. To perform the trick, you first need either a pow block, or a big egg. Big eggs are recommended as there is no known way to consistently get a POW block. See below for setups on keeping big eggs from 2-7 into 3-3.

In the 2nd screen of 3-3 with a big egg, grab an enemy, throw the big egg into the air, and spit out the enemy right before the big egg lands. This will activate the tongue glitch.

Fluttering over the water pit about breaks even with carefully timed jumps out of the water. [1] You can also swim through the whole pit and not lose very much time. The sheep crab blocking the tunnel can either be damage boosted through, or killed with 3 egg shots. For the boss, you generally won't be hit while standing in the middle. However, the boss dies in 6-7 egg shots if you ricochet them up into the side of the uvula. Do this rather than throwing eggs straight up at the bottom of the uvula, which takes many more egg shots to kill the boss.

It is possible to kill Froggy in 5 shots with very precise egg angles (see IL record). The distance that the egg is from the uvula and its velocity on the frame of impact determines how much damage is done. The 5 shot strat uses a 45 degree angle and specific Yoshi positioning to get the greatest possible distance between the egg and the uvula while also ensuring that the egg has the highest possible X & Y velocity.

Even if you're not going for 5-shot, some runners like to do a few of these 45-degree shots and then stay in the middle for the last couple, once the acid drops become harder to avoid. This makes killing Froggy in 6 shots much easier than if you stay in the middle for the whole fight.
