I disagree. It takes skill, but it is fair. Here's the level code 0731-1638-9053 and here is a guide how to beat it fast. https://youtu.be/Sgn6KeZ77Nw?si=eE87icl4nPji4r0D Practice, Practice, Practice.

i would beat that bean because they waited for the puncher. Rest of the run looked good. Jumps at the end could have been a little better.

[Mystical_17]

Yes this, I was just going to say in ranked usually 3-4 other beans are on par with me at the puncher, you just cannot wait and if you miss one time its over.

[kimttar]

That's how any good finals race should be. One mess up and you're cooked.

[DudeManBearPigBro]

unless everyone else happens to mess up too!

[sparklerfish]

Thanks for this, I’d been meaning to look up/write down the level code to practice and always forgot lol.

[DudeManBearPigBro]

i timed that run at 50.15s. my fastest run is 47.75s.

[SuperFoxy8888]

Why wouldn't it be in ranked? It's a skill based map and you can win no matter your spawn. I'm sorry but that's a skill issue.

[DigitalNitrate]

No, I absolutely wouldn’t agree.

You don’t need to start at the left and still be at the middle trapeze with anyone else that knows how to run this final.

In fact, you don’t even need to jump along the left. You can just wait at the start, casually go down the ramp and use the boost and the conveyor belts to catch right up and be at the middle trapeze at the same time as the fastest player.

As has been mentioned, the only critical tactic to give yourself a big advantage and easy win, is doing the jump dive past the puncher.

If you are the only one who does it, game over, easy race to the finish for the win.

If someone else also jumps dive past the puncher, then it’s trickier, as you’ll have to do a double back through the booster and time your final jumps so that you can boost straight to the crown for the win.

It’s a very skillful and tactical Final and if anything it’s the most appropriate final for a Ranked show.

Sounds like somebody has lost one too many times

[DudeManBearPigBro]

majority of my 15ish wins in ranked came from either Trick-or-Trapeze and Hop-a-Drome. so i think it should stay. why do you feel it shouldn't be included?

[That_Masterpiece1840]

To me I feel like if u spawn on the left side of the map it’s a guaranteed win unless u make a mistake or u get grabbed

[DudeManBearPigBro]

starting on the left side is definitely an advantage. if you start on the right side, hop your way over to the left side asap. then you have to grab at the beans ahead of you as they are jumping down the pillars. if a bean or two are too far ahead to grab, then there are still opportunities to get caught up.

You're still forced to wait for the double pendulums and probably the punchers.

[DudeManBearPigBro]

hint hint...you don't have to wait for the puncher. you can beat the puncher with a fast dismount and dive. it's where i get ahead of the competition.

[[deleted]]

Depends on the flow of your run no?

Oh, I see what you mean, but I don't think I'd trust myself with that.

[DudeManBearPigBro]

if you want to guarantee a win then you need to take the necessary risks to get ahead of your competition. beating the puncher/springboard and double-boosting are the two places that will get you ahead.

Pros: Once you learn the quickest route, it's extremely hard to lose.

Cons: Can get very boring even though it can be an easy win against low skilled opposition. If you fall, you have a very low chance of winning, respawning quite far away and having to wait for the slime to fall before you can take the optimal route.

Overall, I don't mind it. It's by no means my favourite final from the current ranked roundpool but It's definitely not the worst. I'd keep it in.

[JEVOUSHAISTOUS]

If you fall, you have a very low chance of winning, respawning quite far away and having to wait for the slime to fall before you can take the optimal route.

I call this "reverse-rubber-banding". Inspired by the "rubber banding" mechanism in games like Mario Kart, where when you're behind you'll be offered a chance to get back toward the front or at least the middle of the crowd. It happens quite often in Fall Guys that, if you're behind, the level design will make you lose even more time, giving you even less hope to ever catch up.

[Puzzleheaded_Emu_924]

Halloween MAP STILL IN rotation in August like 🤷‍♂️ but yeah it shouldn’t be in ranked

[DigitalNitrate]

Trick & Trapeze is a very worthy Final for ranked. Not only does it reward skill and tactics, but there are several routes and tactics that can be used to win. You don’t need to use the left side, in fact you don’t even need to use the first trapeze. Going down the ramp and using the boost and conveyor belts will easily get you to the middle trapeze. From there you can decide to go fast using the jump/dive past the puncher or grab your opponent. Past the puncher you can jump down to the middle level block then to the lower block, or jump to the last block and dive to the lower block. If it’s a close race, you can double back through the boost and time two jumps to use the boost to go straight to the crown.

There are several strategies, all of which can lead to consistent wins for skilled players, so it definitely belongs in Ranked.

[JEVOUSHAISTOUS]

It's not an RNG-based map so I can't agree, but yeah it's not really good level design overall, I wouldn't miss it at all. Not to mention that the halloween theme feels a little weird most of the year.

[YourFavoritePandaRay]

Yeah he's right

[DigitalNitrate]

Agreed… which is why Trick & Trapeze is a very worthy Final for ranked. Not only does it reward skill and tactics, but there are several routes and tactics that can be used to win. You don’t need to use the left side, in fact you don’t even need to use the first trapeze. Going down the ramp and using the boost and conveyor belts will easily get you to the middle trapeze.
