Given a simplicial complex $K$ and an injective function $f$ from the vertices of $K$ to $\mathbb{R}$, we consider algorithms that extend $f$ to a discrete Morse function on $K$. We show that an algorithm of King, Knudson and Mramor can be described on the directed Hasse diagram of $K$. Our description has a faster runtime for high dimensional data with no increase in space.
