Finally captured Nue's stupid, stupid survival card. Still lost the game (Green UFO smashed me earlier), but I'm now back to the status quo of capturing every extra card in the series except the insanity that is Suwa War.

Finally captured Red Frog, which leaves Suwa War as the only MoF card I have yet to capture. :V

Oh God lol. So, I finally got past stage 4 of IN no-bombs, making it to stage 5.

I really should have made it to stage 6 though, but I died to Invisible Full Moon in the most hilarious way ever. In fact, all of stage 5 is a hideous failure, and everybody should download the replay just so they can laugh at it.

It should also be noted that I no-bomb/no-deathed Mystia in this run. It's okay though, I made up for it by dying to the streaming fuzzies in the beginning of the stage. It wouldn't be a real run if I didn't die on stage 2 now would it?

One more screenshot. To show the ~~pain and suffering~~ hardships I endured.

Yeah, slowdown's a bit higher than "usual", probably because I was continually swapping between IRC and the game itself. Which also caused a bug to occur, though it doesn't affect the replay whatsoever.

...A-anyway, I just captured Magic Butterfly! Twice in a row! That last dodge is tough, but I think I've got it. And also...

*stares at Baity*

Also...also I think I just figured out how to make Byakuren's first spell card as easy as possible! The smaller bullets travel in streams, and if you visualize it like that, it's much easier to dodge everything!

And I beat LFO without...=_=...dying again. I got WTF walled, and until I figure that out, I'm not capturing this card, but one bomb will take that out and I can kill it without dying from there.

So good for me! Good...for...me...

I figured this out 3-4 days ago. Adding to this, the Seizure Bullets^TM also travel in a similar manner, but in "reverse direction". I would still bomb it because it's so easy to clipdeath against. In an average run, you need to be able to quickly read the oncoming bullets, and position yourself precisely in a short time frame. And use some vertical dodging if you're unlucky :V

I'm actually capping video (for no good reason) of my first "real" (i.e. default lives for a change, lol) 1cc that I managed this evening right now. Mine's only IN Easy though. ... guess I've got to start somewhere?

I'm...a bit disappointed actually. I was too amazed by the tactics (and how many of these are impossible for Reimu A D:) and stuff to count the total deaths, but it seems that UFO lunatic forces you to be a slave to the UFO system.

It's a "rough" 1cc. There's a reason why the Japanese do think that SanaeB was the most powerful overall.

I also used my bombs in spots where I believe I would clipdeath, hence giving me the largest return (of lives, and the large number of successful deathbombs). Hell, if you don't count stupid deaths / bombs, I can reach 5 spare lives easily (Tablet Theory* says that this will never happen though). I'll probably go around all the shot types and 1cc those in time as well. Probably in this order.

ReimuA, ReimuB, SanaeA, MarisaB, MarisaA.

Quickly adding as well, I believe that I did a demostration run for S5 and 6 and how to UFO chain properly with minimal bomb usage. Only 1-2 bombs for S6 is needed to be able to chain as good as SanaeB. S5 is the same thing; 1-2 bombs is enough if you exclude bombing Nazrin away for additional UFOs.

Some form of EDIT: Yeah, 1 bomb is all you need against the waves of fairies for maximum bomb gathering.
And...

Sounds about right. Though, UFO is technically "easier" since you can bomb your way through parts you have trouble on with most shot types (4 of 6).

*NOT what you think it is; it's an insider.

One question Baity.

At 2/2 going into LFO, were you not even *slightly* tempted at going for the capture?

Both of your bombs seemed to be timed to get yourself into a better shotgunning position rather than to keep you alive.

I'd probably have given in and tried it.

Sapz · « **Reply #979 on:** September 02, 2009, 08:25:18 PM »

ABOUT FREAKING TIME

Suwa War captured, and by extension every spell card in Mountain of Faith capped. Hell yes.

The reason I post the replay, though, is not so much the Suwa War capture and more the hilarious fail that went on during most of the rest of the run. It was bad to the point that I managed to get killed by Suwako during the point between Red Frog and Suwa War (which had me worried it wouldn't count the Suwa War cap <_<).

Incidentally, over the course of the Suwa War attempts, Moriya's Iron Ring has become one of my favourite cards in the series, but only when you do it wrong. :V

Survival comes before capture for a first 1cc. If you look at Stage 5, you'll see that I don't even want to attempt to go for a capture of any SC unless I had no bombs (because Lunatic is that much more overwhelming than Hard). I believe ~~all~~ most of the 1cc's so far shown on royalflare bomb Syou's 1st, 3rd and 4th SCs. And they usually bomb Mid-Boss Nazrin away. For extra UFOs._{Oh God that SC is BS.}

Also, both bombs were at points where I felt I was "cornered". I believe the first bomb wasn't necessary (i.e. everything would've missed), but the second one is looking like I would've been hit otherwise.

Greatest Treasure almost equals Catwalk in difficulty on lunatic. =_= The fact that you benefit from bombing it only makes it worse. I captured it once out of sheer luck.

On that note: LFO LUNATIC CAPTURE! :D~

http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=4654

The deaths in this run were retarded (especially on Devil's Recitation, I thought the bomb would end it and moved up to the PoC), but the fact that even then there were only three deaths shows that I've come a fair ways. And before you ask, no I don't have any idea how I made those dodges at the end. That one wave at the end is the one that always kills me, and it was sheer luck that I avoided it this time.

Also, Baity. Any good tips on how to consistently beat midboss Nues? I'm pretty sure the attacks are static and aimed at your position, but the third and fourth waves for both just seem to kill me or let me live at the whims of fate.

My History is sitting on something like 5/50? More? Less? Not as BS as "Catwalk"_{SA S5 SC1}, but still.

A better comparison would be "CoK"[?]_{PCB S5 SC5} without slowdown, larger bullets, and a bullets being spawned from the side.

Ehh... no. Personally, I would use 1-2 bombs during the "Red" waves for max power. I think it's static and / or aimed. I try to follow a middle, middle -> left, middle, middle -> right scheme (normally... you probably won't ever see me follow this in a 1cc for some reason; probably irrationality).
