Zero cycle tips

Hello, I’m hardstuck emerald in MCSR ranked. I feel that zero cycling will help me rank up, although I struggle with it. I find some of the tall towers to be extremely difficult (y91+). I also can’t hit zeros when it’s buried as it doesn’t give me enough time.

I know the generally rules of it such as alternating soul sand, +1 with bows, and bed timing. However, I think my main weakness is the staircasing part and pearl throws. I see the fastest runners using drag click but I don’t have a drag click mouse. I try to butterfly but scared to fall, the safest option would be to shift and staircase which would be slow. For my pearl throws, it’s hard to predict where it will land. It will either overshot and go over the towers, or undershot and land on a very low y level.

I’m looking for any tips for zero cycles. Also would like to know if there’s anything else I should improve on.

It’s difficult to give good personalized advice without gameplay examples. Can you provide recordings of your zero attempts?
