malictus SATD strat

My current best with this path is 115,147, which is currently #1. Activation 2 and 3 require perfect whammying and squeezing; my current high missed a squeeze note on activation 3, but I'm pretty sure it's possible.

Thanks for the path. Without any squeezes and with sub-optimal play, I got 22nd on my first try, less than 2000 off the leader.

Used your chart malictus, managed just over 114k, which got me a very respectable 78th in the rankings. Thanks for the help dude.

(Oh yeah, that first tilt, the 3 SP'er...I activated it a little later, got a bit more juice out of the sustained red and a little from the sustained green afterwards and the Star Power JUST ran out before the 4th SP. Got me 400 more points, I think.)
