Title: So I 1cc'd SA on Normal
Post by: The Greatest Dog on September 02, 2009, 06:16:55 AM
It's me again, that one dude who was hoping to move into Hard but wanted to 1cc something other than Imperishable Night and Mokou using a Sakuya solo.

And somehow, by a stroke of luck, I 1cc'd SA on Normal with ReimuC.

... I found Orin more difficult than Utsuho.

Anyway, what should I attempt next? SA Extra? UFO 1cc? Mountain of Faith on Hard?

That's normal.

And you should attempt PCB Normal next.

PCB Normal, and then Extra and Phantasm.

I've gotten closer to 1ccing UFO than SA Normal, so try 1cc UFO normal? The ufo system lets you stock a lot of bombs and lives and is way more forgiving than SAs.

UFO Normal is pretty easy. I'm assuming you have done MoF and IN Normal cause' those are incredibly easy. SA is probably the hardest Normal there is so yeah, just go for anyone you like.

After that i'd recommend UFO Extra. That's pretty fun.

Nue is. Stage isn't.
Still, it's better than Koishi...>.>

I find Nue to be pretty dissapointing as an extra boss personally. Not just because she was pretty easy. But only 1 of her spell cards looked cool. The others are all pretty much square/uniform/stripe/circle/whatever patterns that don't really have the "oooh pretty!" reaction that most spellcards give.

Hmmm. I found the stage excellent and Nue boring.

Stage = mostly fast-paced with well-timed breaks, no memorization required, some raw dodging required here and there, awesome music, two fun cards in Kogasa's 1st and 2nd, easier to play around with the UFOs than during the game itself

Nue = underwhelming and mostly cacophonous song, stupid easy until more than halfway through, bullshit green UFOs and rainbow UFOs, only Undefined Darkness*, Nightmare of Heiankyou** and Bow of Yorimasa Genzanmi are both challenging and fun. Danmaku Chimera was a nasty (and clever) surprise the first time but after you know what's coming it's just a poor (wo)man's Hell's Tokamak.

* I also like Genetics, hit me
** more fun than challenging actually once you learn to stick to a movement pattern instead of trusting your eyes

So, you've 1cc'd SA Normal, IN Normal and IN Extra?

That's quite strange, to me anyways.
I absolutely can not 1cc SA or UFO on Normal (I've been trying UFO the entire day, No Sleep Until Clear-style)

But I've 1cc'd EoSD, PCB, IN and MoF, and beaten EoSD on Hard.
But UFO and SA... In UFO and SA, everything kills me after Stage 2-3.
Hell, I haven't even seen Utsuho on Normal yet.

I'm not really sure what you have done, though, and neither am I sure what I'm talking about. (first post)
But I'd say EoSD and PCB are great. But somehow I think you much want to go for UFO because you were able to beat SA. Them being somewhat similar in the way it kills me atleast.

That's how it usually is in my opinion. The stage portion can almost always make me RAGE in extra. EoSD Extra for example, it took me forever to get it done because i had to restart the stage because of Patchy. Or getting hit by a bullet i didn't see from the books later in the stage.

In PCB its not so bad. I can usually get through it perfectly rather quickly. Or satisfactory at least (not dying.)

IN's extra stage portion is a breeze with border team though. Easy to perfect. That's good because i come for the boss and not the stage.

MoF's extra stage portion is pretty easy.
SA's extra stage portion is easy to clip because of those fairies that shoots rings. Well, its a long time i tried so i don't know.

Finally UFO Extra. Yeah, its pretty easy to screw up. But Nue is neat. Socks and all.

Nue=most fun Extra boss imo. Especially thanks to the fact that she isn't loaded with streaming attacks like Yukari is.

Guess what?

I beat 1cc UFO Normal with MarisaB. But I don't want to touch Extra with MarisaB.

Anyway, I've 1cc IN with Youmu/Yuyuko (I refuse to use Border Team at all, even in Extra), cleared IN Extra with a Sakuya and Yuyuko solo, SA with ReimuC, and now UFO.

There's not too much that's more difficult than SA, is there?

I wouldn't touch anything else than Border Team myself:p is it cheap or something?

And yeah, SA is probably still the hardest. Atleast for me.

I see everybody else using Border Team.

Personally I prefer Youmu and Yuyuko far more.

Anyhoo, there's MoF, PCB, and EoSD left that I haven't 1cc'd.

PCB next?

Can't get much cheaper in IN than MAlice Cannon, I use the Magic team all the time.
