'''Low%''' is a collection of challenge run types in which the player must complete a set task while using certain actions within the game as little as possible, such as jumping ~~the fewest amount of~~ times or capturing the ~~fewest~~ number of objects or enemies. The task in question can be a range of things, including beating the game, achieving World Peace, collecting every moon~~, and more~~. Low% runs can be played as a speedrun or at a casual pace.

'''Low%''' is a collection of challenge run types in which the player must complete a set task while using certain actions within the game as little as possible, such as [[Jump|jumping]] as few times as possible or [[Capture|capturing]] the least number of objects or enemies. The task in question can be a range of things, including [[Any%|beating the game]], achieving [[World Peace]], or [[All Moons|collecting every moon]]. Low% runs can be played as a speedrun or at a casual pace.

The most well-known Low% category is [[Minimum Captures]], popularized in part by streamer [https://www.twitch.tv/SmallAnt SmallAnt].
