| − | This page explains alternative strategies for [[Aztec]]. This covers strategies that are no longer used, theoretical strategies that are not commonly used, and "negative result" or "debunked" strategies which were theorized to be possible but further investigation has deemed impossible. | + | This page explains unworkable strategies for [[Aztec]] from [[GoldenEye 007]]. This includes strategies that are not technically possible, strategies that the community has deemed infeasible or impossible with current knowledge, and TAS ideas that did not work out. |

| − | The glass door strategies make use of [[Guards]] opening the glass door, the "[[Guards#Ghost Doors|Ghost Door]]" mechanic.

| − | | |
| − | Legacy strategies have been replaced with easier or more consistent strategies.

| − | === Bryan B. Glass ===
| |
| − | Obsolete because it is slower than [[Aztec#Strategies|modern strategies]]. Still has a place in modern RTA runs as a backup for failed mainframe attempts. It is also used in LTK runs.

| − | Very viable for good PBs but newer strats are likely easier and more consistent.

| − | === Fast Glass ===
| |
| − | Still viable for UWR on all difficulties. Just really hard and unreliable even on agent.

| − | === Crouch Glass ===
| |
| − | Very viable for UWR, but relies heavily on guard animations which makes it terrible to play for. There are several variations of it and Henrik needs to write this section. Crouch glass is the main strat on the XBLA version of Goldeneye which some might find interesting. It's possible we can learn some from the way they do it. There is also a trick where if you pause buffer the moment the guard finishes running, the guard will run further which might help with consistency.
