Since optimizing A and B presses is a minimal challenge in many places in the game, most players who route this category also choose to minimize the number of times [[Cappy]] is thrown. This alternate category is known as '''Minimum ABC'''. (It should be noted that the cap throw count listed in [[Archivist Toadette|Archivist Toadette's]] counters may not be accurate, since it does not register cap throws within point-blank range of a [[capture]] or other target.) | Since optimizing A and B presses is a minimal challenge in many places in the game, most players who route this category also choose to minimize the number of times [[Cappy]] is thrown.

In this variant of the category, saving A/B presses takes priority over saving cap throws, although both are kept as low as possible. In other words, it would be favorable to add 100 extra cap throws to save one A/B press, but not the other way around. The most common notation for press counts is as follows: __xA/B __xC, where C represents cap throws.
