Note: Here I got one cycle mummy. I do have a bad Slogra and Dracula fight later to compensate if you have a bad spawn.

Note: For the trick, hold left for a couple of frames as Simon lands after the medusa boost. On the gear or below the spikes both works.

Note: This reduces lag and saves almost a second.
== Boss: Akmodan II (Mummy) ==
*The biggest time loss/save comes from the Mummy whose spawns are random. The best outcome is a 1 cycle in which he would spawn from either the far left or far right of the screen.
*Each full cycle costs 1400 frames (~23.3 sec)*Half a cycle or if you are one hit of are off is still is a 700 (~11.6 sec) frame time loseloss. So a good boss it is worth to practice nailing the 1 cycle or any subsequent cycles to invest some lessen the timeloss.
=== 1 Cycle Mummy Strats ===
'''Notes:'''
*For both of these videos, these are best scenarios. Mummy can give fireballs as an attack instead of bandage and positioning will have to change.
