Hey, it looks like I've been playing touhou for 2 years now!

I made this gameplay based video to celebrate this awesome hobby!  :toot:
(Harcore Meiling fans should probably avoid this video)

So I went back and tried harder on UFO stage 4 opener, and managed to do it completely no focus and pull of a pretty tight dodge on the last wave, chance would have it that Reimu ended on almost the exact same place that she started out on, which gave me the idea to make it loop. Then I just tried some random stuff. If you watch it feel free to write a comment or send me a message of what you liked/hated the most. I want to make a tribute video to the top 10 best touhou superplayers and I want it to be as good as possible.

I also managed to pull of the first version (without the last wave dodged like that) in 90 fps, oh and does it look like I'm winning the tournaments special - extra challenge!?

I think most people who were remotely capable of beating your run got bored of trying to pacify the entire stage and purposely failing everything in sight if it wasn't for a high score
Current Goals: Clear all games on hard with every shottype (or team, not all solos in IN)

Remaining: EoSD 0, PCB 3, IN 0, MoF 3 (Marisa B doesn't count), SA 4, UFO all B types, TD Youmu, total 14.

I forgot to mention sometime in one of my earlier SA Lunatic Stage 4 practice runs that I perfected MidOrin #2. Y'know, the one with impossible walls of bullet-wall-spawning wisps. Wasn't with full power either. To be fair, I used the ReimuA method (dun dun dun), but it's still damn hard regardless.

So somehow I got a perfect Orin on my first run playing ReimuB (since I have been doing all the different shots on normal) even though I intended to bomb here second nonspell. Fate would have it that my keyboard didn't recognize me pressing the X key and somehow I managed to cap it and her evil 3rd spell in the same run. I think this might have been the first time I've perfected her, which means SA is the first game in which I have perfected all normal bosses? (lolwut). Also in the same run I capture Heaven and Hell Meltdown basically no vert and decided to troll the game's final attack just because I felt like it. Only 7 more to go before I have all the normal shot clears (and 2 of them are TD lol)

Here's the replay if anyone wants to see it

Edit: 3 more clears in the last couple hours: UFO ReimuB, TD Sanae and MoF MarisaC. Only ones left now are SakuyaB, SA MarisaA, UFO MarisaB and TD Youmu.

List the superplayers, please.

I was thinking something like this, but if we all voted on our favorites it might be more fair.

Player and motivation

LYX - when he plays MoF it's like a world champion figure skater shredding the ice
HS参謀 - supreme overlord of PCB and inventor revolutionary scoring techniques
shin - pushing UFO and grazemilking to the limit
YASU - multiple IN world records
UKT - holding all SA Lunatic world records
AM - UFO Lunatic WR and past achievements
OOSAKA - dominating EoSD Extra and holding overall EoSD WR 4ever

LET - held a lot of early IN records
IBUKI - holds all sa extra wrs
wakaba - holds almost all of the gfw wrs

and for the ones on motk:
T - excellent at extra stages
dot_asp - great at most stages, holds the marisaa ufo extra wr
heartbeam - also great at most stages, makes early wrs in newer games, most proficient at pcb

30 something, IIRC. I managed to capture it with Reimu the second try by dropping to the bottom first and not moving, so I wanted something a little more authentic with Marisa.

Play at 1000fps. It might happen eventually, and then you can brag about capturing it at 1000fps. BV

On a side note, I captured it at 90fps back when I was playing TD. I used Youmu of course, but still.

Yes, my first 1CC of Touhou PCB on Normal! (I suck!)
First time I ever made it to Yuyuko's survival card. I had no clue it existed until then; And my response to it was to spam the X key like a mad man  :derp:
But, I made it out alive in the end, and with 2 extra extends left :D
The rest of my Normal achievements:
Touhou 6 1CC'd
Touhou 8 1CC'd
Touhou 10 1CC'd
Touhou 13 1CC'd
Gonna seriously work on SA now, but in my opinion it seems to be the hardest game in the series, no clue how I'll finally beat Orin, let alone Utsuho xD

It's pretty tough to beat SA (or UFO) on normal for the first time. Both of them are really tough from stage 4 boss onward until you get really used to it. I would suggest using stage practice if you have the stages unlocked since it will save you a lot of frustration due to failed 1CC's at Orin/Utsuho or Shou/Byakuren. To be honest, depending on which shot type you use, UFO might be easier (except the final cards) because most of the bombs are way stronger than in SA. Either way, good luck and feel free to go to the rage thread when you start working on it.

Edit: 3 more clears in the last couple hours: UFO ReimuB, TD Sanae and MoF MarisaC. Only ones left now are SakuyaB, SA MarisaA, UFO MarisaB and TD Youmu.

Also, 2 more clears done (SA MarisaA and UFO MarisaB). Just 2 more then I can go back to trying SA and UFO hard, then its time for (dun dun dun) lunatic....

Glad I took a break from trying to up the difficulty to do this sinceI  think it's probably helped me overall.

And if you don't have them unlocked, spam continues until you do. I think this is also where watching others' replays becomes more important.

True, I had a lot of trouble because I could never beat the stages using continues. My first SA normal clear came on my first attempt ever to reach stage 6 in an actual run and I had yet to even unlock it for practice. If I remember right the farthest I had managed to get using continues was Heaven and Hell Meltdown. I think I at least managed to get UFO's stage 6 unlocked because I seem to remember practicing it some before finally clearing the game.

The biggest problem for clearing SA's stage 6 using continues is probably the fact that Utsuho's first cards are extremely difficult to do without practicing them (still hard even after a lot of practice), so a lot of continues are wasted trying to get through them. Couple that with her second last spell which is tricky until you learn how to do it and the awkwardness of the last one and you get something that is quite tough to clear with room for only 2 or 3 deaths depending on how many life pieces you get.

At least most of Byakuren can be bombed (through her fourth spell) and you can get 2-3 bombs easy within the stage using green UFOs so it's not too tough to reach St. Nikou's Air Scroll with two lives in stock, probably die, then bomb and have at least a life (maybe with 1 or 2 bombs) to do the final card and unlock the stage for practice. I compare that to the relative weakness of bombs in SA which it takes probably 4-5 bombs to clear Utsuho's first 2 spells depending on the character, and since using bombs reduces power, that makes everything else last a lot longer, whereas most of the attacks in UFO will likely be cleared by 1 bomb at most from ReimuA, MarisaA, or either Sanae.

You should be able to bomb through Utsuho with continues and reach Sub Sun with a good supply of stuff. You've got four lives, none of the nonspells should a threat (especially if you cheat on two of them), and Blazing Star's a cakewalk if you stay in the middle. Four lives with bombs should be more than enough to spam through three spells. Stage 5 is harder to continue past in my opinion.

Of course, you can also practice the stages you already have so that you can get to the tough stages with enough lives to get 1cc past them. You'd want to practice the early stages anyway, right?

I suppose something like that would make sense, but then there's the whole "clipped three times by Stage 4 lasers" and the subsequent "making it to Orin with 5 spare lives and getting utterly destroyed anyway" thing.

Practice... does... nothing!
I'll Stage Practice until my fingers go numb and I'll still die three times to Orin's nonspells :fail:

God yes. I think one of the first times I played UFO Normal, I did in fact have enough continues to get through Byakuren as well. Was totally a different story for SA Normal, for that very reason - bombing reduces power. Same deal with MoF. But hey, if you're able to get through the first five stages flawlessly, you start the last stage with a pretty solid collection of resources.

Practice... does... nothing!

Isn't Orin ... notoriously difficult? Stage 5 in general is just brutal to me.

Eh, at least the bombs in MoF can kill off attacks pretty easily (most spells gone with one) and at max power, bombing doesn't hurt your attack power at all in MoF since 4.00 and 5.00 are the same. MoF was a much easier 1cc for me than SA, but probably just because Sanae is (to me at least) a much easier stage 5 boss with a relatively tame stage portion, since most of her attacks can be easily done: 1st one - 2 alternating positions, 2nd one streaming, 3rd one static, last a joke.

Isn't Orin ... notoriously difficult? Stage 5 in general is just brutal to me.

Orin is a pain, until just recently I had to bomb most of her attacks since the only ones I could do consistently were the first nonspell and spellcard. It's gotten a lot better, not through practice specifically on the stage, but just due to my overall skill improvement than anything else.

As far as UFO in this case Shou is just more awkward than anything else and if you want to 1cc UFO you should probably be getting a lot of green UFOs (though I tend to go for reds since I hate bombing) and just bombing the attacks you can't do. I would assume it's fairly easy to get like 25-30 bombs over the whole game if you only summon greens and that should more than take care of the boss/midboss attacks. Even if you summon no reds you will still get at least one extra life by stage 6 so with no deaths (due to using bombs liberally) you can have 4 lives in stock so even if you run out of bombs, you have 8 more in stock with the extra lives.

I know I just said it, but I think what I just said reinforces that UFO might actually be easier to 1cc than SA, though SA will give more lives due to life pieces dropping on each attack rather than after the boss like in UFO. I still found SA much tougher (I think it was the last one I cleared and it and UFO are the only ones I've yet to do on hard)
