The rest of the times I died at the beginning area. All because of just wrong timing with the jumps and falling between the small pegs or being careless and long-jumping off of the moving blocks and just slightly off or accidentally bouncing on one of those SMG goomba-esque guys and making me fall. Once I get past that, I am golden (until I get towards the end).

Yeah, though the good thing about doing it over and over is that I know now the fastest way through the beginning part, and I can bascially get to the end of the 1st part (up to after the peg jumping and charging chucks) to about 45 seconds.

Um, you know you can just run across the pegs, right?

Wait...
REALLY?!?!?!?
*runs off to play SM3DW*

If I remember, in the video I watched there were enemies on those pegs as well. Don't know whether you can just run past them though or if you have to jump past them.

Yes, and you can jump on them too without a big risk of falling off (it's still there but if yo continue running without stopping, you won't fall off). You can also attempt running past the first Chargin' Chuck.

Woah, woah, woah, waoh, there are Chargin' Chucks in this game?

It's cold news right?

Yes there are. You're apparently a bit slow on this though since we knew this way before it was released.

You can do both. If there's enough space, you can run past them, but jumping on or over them is usually a safe bet. I'm a Mario user, though, so it may be slightly different for you.
 
Relax; I know that you can run over it.

I just hate jumping over the charging chucks and falling right between them as I try to land. That mostly happens when I am being careless or I time it wrong. I rarely do that now.

So After 60 tries, I finally got the speedy area, which is hell for me.

And the rest of the times I got the before speedy stuff done to the point where I just can do it and not fail, and I even got past the piranha jumping without a cat outfit (and not getting hit which I'm so proud of). Just, there was a few attempts at the speedy area where I got the box unlocked, but I would either land on a beam, or I would jump just a millisecond too late and it would say I got hit while being in small Rosalina form.

However, there was one try where I got it, and I was still big, and I was like "FUCK YES!" and I touched the box, and I was almost ready to cry in joy, but I was telling myself "Okay, focus; don't die because you're being stupid" and I was just so happy. It was my 90th time or something like that, and I posted in Miiverse being like "*excitement blah blah excitement* And it took 120 tries", but that was me miscounting by 30. :P

Now I just need to do all levels with all characters.

And btw, I only died like 250 times in this game. :D About 40 of those are me killing myself on purpose when I am too small so that I go back to being bigger form of the characters.

Saw that, made me wonder whether I'm overestimating the difficulty of Champion's Road. I'll have my answer... in two weeks time.
