'''Broode Skip''' (also called '''Madame Broode Skip''' or by its nickname '''Broodon't''') is a trick used in [[Minimum Captures]] that allows three captures to be saved in the [[Cascade Kingdom]] by skipping the [[Madame Broode]] boss fight. Normally, the only way to gather the five [[Power Moon|Power Moons]] required to leave the kingdom is by collecting the [[Multi Moon]] from the boss, but by utilizing [[two-player mode]] to reach the [[Warp Painting]] island early and collect its Power Moon, it is possible to collect five moons without any captures.

'''Madame Broode Skip''' (often shortened to '''Broode Skip''' or called by its nickname '''Broodon't''') is a trick used in [[Minimum Captures]] that allows three captures to be saved in the [[Cascade Kingdom]] by skipping the [[Madame Broode]] boss fight. Normally, the only way to gather the five [[Power Moon|Power Moons]] required to leave the kingdom is by collecting the [[Multi Moon]] from the boss, but by utilizing [[two-player mode]] to reach the [[Warp Painting]] island early and collect its Power Moon, it is possible to collect five moons without any captures.


Since this trick eliminates the [[Broode's Chain Chomp]] capture entirely, it is also useful in [[Minimum Capture Types]].

The idea of Broode Skip was first theorized back in December 2017 by Adaly Debest,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2xDXmttVbM</ref> who explained that it was possible to collect four moons without defeating the boss, but collecting a fifth would require the [[Warp Painting]] island to be reached somehow. 04dude3 later theorized a way to reach the island by activating the [[Checkpoint Flag]] with Cappy using a difficult [[Two-player mode|two-player]] trickjump, and finally proved the skip possible on May 10, 2019.<ref>https://clips.twitch.tv/OutstandingGiftedSalmonOptimizePrime</ref> The first [[Any% Minimum Captures]] run to utilize the trick, which included 10 total captures, was completed the following day.<ref>https://www.twitch.tv/videos/423218522</ref>

Later, following the discovery of [[Cappy return cancel|Cappy return cancels]], glitch hunter [https://twitter.com/kehzou Syrkl] discovered an easier method to activate the checkpoint using the new exploit.<ref>https://twitter.com/kehzou/status/1240728056416702470</ref> The method involved getting Cappy stuck on the west side of the kingdom, moving Mario to the east end, and performing a single return cancel to teleport Cappy to the island. Two days later, Syrkl discovered that this setup was also possible with Cappy placed at the top of the kingdom,<ref>https://twitter.com/kehzou/status/1241609690313682944</ref> which, being a more convenient location, made the Cappy return cancel method faster than the original trickjump method. Being both faster and less difficult, the Cappy return cancel method is now used almost exclusively over the original method.

=== Cappy return cancel method ===
Madame Broode Skip requires very precise movement, so it is easier to perform it with a second player. However, if no other person is present, one can operate the second controller by setting it on a table and using their fourth and fifth fingers while gripping the first controller, or by placing it on the ground and using their feet. In order to execute the trick:
Broode Skip can be performed with a [[Cappy return cancel]] as seen in [https://twitter.com/kehzou/status/1241609690313682944 this video]. The steps are as follows:


* Navigate to the top of the kingdom and place Cappy behind the rectangular rocks blocking the way to the [[Madame Broode]] arena, so that he becomes stuck on the bridge to the arena.
*Navigate to the triceratops skull at the top of the Cascade Kingdom;
* Walk directly away from the rock blocks as Mario, to the southeast, and fall down to where ''Our First Power Moon'' is located. If Mario strays too far from this direction, Cappy may become unstuck.
*Remove Cappy from Mario's head and stall him on the nearby plateau;
* Locate the log in the ground just to the east of where Mario first arrives in the Cascade Kingdom. Stand on the east side of the log and face the checkpoint, so that Mario is standing on a slope facing upwards toward the [[Warp Painting]] island.
*Triple jump off the farthest horn of the triceratops towards the painting island;
*Adjust Mario's position until Mario's feet are sloped at roughly a 45-degree angle, and Mario's horizontal facing angle is toward the [[Checkpoint Flag]] on the floating island.
* At the peak of the jump, command Cappy to return to Mario as Mario performs a spin;
**Mario's feet will be sloped at the correct angle when Mario's heels are directly against the back of the log. To get into this position, stand about halfway up the log, and repeatedly [[Crouching|crouch]] to slide Mario backwards slightly.
*Dive so that Cappy returns to Mario at the peak of the dive, and perform a cap bounce at the peak;
**To ensure that Mario's horizontal angle is correct, press L or R to center the camera and ensure that this places the floating island in roughly the center of the view, or slightly to the right of the center.
*Upthrow, spin and dive forward as Mario while removing Cappy from Mario's control at the peak of the upthrow;
*Ensure the floating island is within view of the camera. Crouch as Mario, and repeatedly shake Cappy's controller to perform the return cancel and home in on the Checkpoint Flag.
*Continue to fall forward toward the grassy platform with the stump as Cappy flies toward the island;
*Warp up to the checkpoint and collect the [[Power Moon]] on the island.
* Roll or buffer a jump to avoid a fall stun as Mario lands on the platform;


=== Original method ===
*Continue to move forward toward the lower ledge with the purple coins on the other side of the platform;
The trickjump method is much more difficult than the Cappy return cancel method, and so it is easier to perform with a second player. However, if no other person is present, one can operate the second controller by setting it on a table and using their fourth and fifth fingers while gripping the first controller, or by placing it on the ground and using their feet. In order to execute the trick:
*Drop into a ledge grab near the leftmost purple coin and correct Cappy's position on top of the island;
*Release the ledge grab and walk past the purple coins to the other side of the ledge;
*Drop into a ledge grab again, then pull Mario back up onto the ledge;
*Move to the nearby corner that extrudes from the ledge;
*Pause the game and revert back to single-player mode;
*Enter first person mode ''immediately'' after the game unpauses and aim the camera up toward the floating island;
*Exit first person mode to allow Cappy to activate the checkpoint.


*Navigate to the triceratops skull at the top of the kingdom. Remove Cappy from Mario's head and place him on the plateau behind the skull.
If everything was performed correctly, Cappy should activate the checkpoint, allowing Mario to warp up to the island and collect the Power Moon on top.
*Triple jump off the triceratops horn nearest the floating island.
*At the peak of the jump, command Cappy to return to Mario by pressing X/Y on Cappy's controller, and at the same time, perform a spin as Mario by pressing X/Y on the main controller.
*[[Dive]] so that Cappy returns to Mario at the peak of the dive, and perform a [[cap bounce]] at the peak by pressing A/B on Cappy's controller.
*[[Upthrow]], spin (by pressing X/Y) and dive forward as Mario while entering flight as Cappy (pressing X/Y on Cappy's controller) at the peak of the upthrow.
*Continue to fall forward toward the grassy platform with the stump as Cappy flies toward the island, and [[Rolling|roll]] or [[Buffering|buffer]] a [[jump]] to avoid a fall stun as Mario lands on the platform.
*Continue to move forward toward the lower ledge with the purple coins on the other side of the platform, and drop into a ledge grab near the leftmost purple coin.
*Correct Cappy's west-east position on top of the island by using the Cappy icon to track his position.
*Release the ledge grab and walk past the purple coins to the other side of the ledge. Drop into a ledge grab again, and correct Cappy's north-south position by again using the Cappy icon.
*Pull Mario back up onto the ledge and move to the nearby corner that extrudes from the ledge. Pause the game and revert back to single-player mode.
*Enter [[first-person mode]] and [[Snapshot Mode]] ''immediately'' after the game unpauses, and aim the camera up toward the floating island. If the camera is unable to move, quickly exit Snapshot Mode and enter it again.
*Exit first-person mode to allow Cappy to activate the checkpoint.


If everything was performed correctly, Cappy should activate the checkpoint, allowing Mario to warp up to the island and collect the Power Moon on top.

==Alternate methods==
Madame Broode Skip can also be performed using a [[Cappy return cancel]], which is much easier than doing the standard method.


==Behavior==
==Behavior==
If one returns to the Cascade Kingdom after successfully skipping the [[Madame Broode]] fight, the kingdom will behave as though Madame Broode was defeated and she will not appear<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qtokh2i3kU</ref>. Instead, elements of the kingdom that normally do not appear until Madame Broode is defeated will be present, including numerous other [[Power Moon|Power Moons]].

Instead, elements of the kingdom that normally do not appear until Madame Broode is defeated will be present, including numerous other Power Moons. You also get the multi moon when you revisit Cascade Kingdom.
 
On versions [[Version 1.0.1|1.0.1]] and later, if the fight was skipped at any point, the [[Multi Moon]] will automatically be awarded to the player upon returning to the Cascade Kingdom or completing the game. This will not happen on [[version 1.0.0]], meaning that performing the trick will make the Multi Moon permanently unobtainable until the game is updated to version 1.0.1 or later.


Interestingly, the game will register [[World Peace]] as achieved in the Cascade Kingdom as long as Mario collects enough moons to progress to the next kingdom, even if Madame Broode is not defeated. This goes against the normal World Peace requirement that the last Multi Moon in the kingdom is collected.

==Uses==
==Uses==
Broode Skip is applicable to various [[Minimum Captures]] categories, since avoiding the three required captures from the Madame Broode fight allows the player to complete the Cascade Kingdom with zero captures. This includes [[Minimum Captures Any%]] as well as [[Minimum Captures World Peace]], since World Peace is satisfied in the Cascade Kingdom even if Madame Broode is not defeated.
