Its arguably the hardest 5* in GHI. It took me forever to 5* it.

Let me explain this song in a nutshell.

1. to get it you need to enter a 33 line code on either a action replay or gameshark.

2. the first time I played it I actually failed.

3. The song has some of the most confusing chord changes ever.

4. This solo is harder to pass then BatM, not harder to FC but harder to pass.

5. The SP path is pretty awkward as well

6. HARDEST GH1 5* EVAR!!!! IMO

still awesome song though

It's easy to do on GH2, but I doubt I'd be able to pass it easily on GH1.

Optimal FC path:

C3 - Next note, only whammy 5,5 beats, ends on YO of meas. 22 (S1)
2 - Measure 28, 3rd R, ends on YO of meas. 34 (S1)
2 - Next note, TRY to squeeze 3rd R of meas. 43
2 - Measure 50, RY, ends on YO of measure 55 (S1)
2 - Next note, ends on GB of meas. 65, squeeze some ticks

Wanted to officially update the record for where this song stands. aWiseMoose and I have runs that include all of the "free" squeezes and there are only two difficult 200 point squeezes remaining.

I have gotten the 200 extra points on the 2nd act once and it's pretty hard to do. I've never gotten 200 extra on the 2nd to last act, however I believe it's possible with correct whammy. This squeeze is merely a conjecture since there's no proof for it yet. I would guess that the execution for this is pretty close to a real double - so pretty damn hard lol. Realistically, I expect 249.4k via 200 extra on the 2nd act to be the highest anyone would get. As for remaining ticks, this all hinges on how many points you drop on the whammy at the end of the solo and ticks on the final act.

Optimal score calculation: Using aWiseMoose's video I have come up with an estimate for a theoretically optimal score. He finished the run with a score of 249212 (baseline for this calculation). He is missing two 200 point squeezes. After the solo he had 175392, no dropped ticks would be 175448, missing 56 points (can calc this with measure values from the note chart). Finally for the last act, he got +20 on back end ticks, and I am estimating that something like +56 is UB execution (a lot possible on 206bpm), missing 36 points here.

249212 + 200 + 200 + 56 + 36 = 249704 (plus or minus 8)
