This room contains our first real speedrun trick. I've included this because it is what most players prefer to do, but keep in mind that it only saves about 5-10 frames (about .1 seconds) so it's worth it to do the easier movement which I demonstrate later if you struggle with this.

Start by holding '''Right''' as you enter the room and begin holding '''B''' as soon as Link moves out of the doorway. Move down below the chest, staying as high up as possible and eventually you will poke the Blue Sword Soldier. Continue holding '''Right''' and '''B''' until Link has fully past the second statue as shown in the third image then release the B button to spin and kill the guard.

Normally when you poke an enemy with the sword, Link will drop the sword after a short amount of time. We get around this by releasing the spin quickly enough and we are able to do the required 3 damage in one quick move.
