    The greek keyboard speedrun strat. The delta looks like an “up” arrow so he can shave off 0.02 seconds and he doesn’t need to write the whole word

      Honestly, that strat went out the window once we got the ^. No need to waste time using the Greek keyboard exploit, expecially since the top runner was found to be using macros to emulate anyway.

        ^ needs 2 keypresses, shift+6. You might as well just type “up.” Also note that the speedrunner here used a capital i, also an excess keypress, except for the fact that you’re allowed to be holding a key down before you start. Just a bit of showing off, I guess.
