'''Dark Side Broodal skips''' (colloquially known as '''3DSS''') are tricks that allow the player to skip the Broodal boss fights in [[Dark Side (kingdom)|Dark Side]]. These can save time in any speedrun that is required to beat this kingdom, such as [[Dark Side (category)|Dark Side]], [[All Moons]] and [[100%]]. It can be used to skip Topper, Spewart and Rango, but not Hariet, because the exit loading zone in Hariet's room is completely enclosed with a trigger area.

The '''3 Darker Side Skips''', abbreviated as '''3DSS''' (which is a pun on [[2D Skip Skip|2DSS]]), are three skips all performed in an identical manner that allow the player to bypass the [[Topper]], [[Spewart]], and [[Rango]] boss fights in [[Dark Side (kingdom)|Dark Side]].

The 3 Darker Side Skips, abbreviated as 3DSS (which is a pun on 2DSS), are three skips all performed in an identical manner that allow the player to bypass the Topper, Spewart, and Rango boss fights in Dark Side. This trick saves a large amount of time in speedruns that complete the boss rush, and was discovered jointly by Mars2030, MiiWii, and Sledged_Hammer.

The trick cannot be used on the second floor of the tower to skip the Hariet fight, since unlike the other three floors, there is an additional trigger zone that completely encloses the exit loading zone, making it impossible to leave the room without initiating the fight. However, in two-player mode, there is a faster method to skip the fights by scaling the tower from the outside, known as the 4 Darker Side Skips, that bypasses all four fights.

Explanation

The trick can be performed by vaulting to the right of the arena, falling almost down to the poison, doing a homing cap throw, downthrowing, bouncing off of Cappy, wall jumping, and then diving onto a sloped surface on the wall to cancel the dive, then wall jumping once more, doing another homing cap throw, then diving into the back side of the arena. From there you can jump to the exit door.[1]
