add manip and soulverlap ending info
= 5-backdash version =
{{#ev:youtube|rKIvUEXK8wY|||||start=60}}
''Timestamped video with input display''
This version has fewer inputs, but can fail if the player takes too long to perform the first backdash, as looking at the Axe Armor for a while will cause its AI to call RNG more often.
= 4-backdash version =
{{#ev:youtube|Ouj6GGswDpY|||||start=231}}
''Timestamped video with input display''
This version avoids the risk of failure from taking too long to do the first backdash, but requires an extra whiffed slash in each room.
= Soulverlap ending =
{{#ev:youtube|k4se8XCojW0|||||start=75}}
''Timestamped video for 5-backdash version''
Both versions of the manip can optionally finish with a [[AoS/Glitches#Soulverlap | soulverlap]] to save roughly 1 second, at the cost of 59 HP. Before the killing blow, walk to the right far enough to that when you are knocked to the right when you jump. The instant you land after the knockback, jump and slash to the left. The final slash must connect before Creaking Skull's bone slam attack hits the floor and creates stone particles, which advance RNG.
