Fury of the Storm - Dragonforce

hoooooooo boy do I have a lot to say about this one...

So if you read my description of my Chemical Warfare video, my experience with this song is very similar. My first FC of this took agonizingly long, 15+ hours, had many dumb misses, messed up the star power, and was done around the same time. I got my first FC on August 14, 2018, and had a score of 855,761 (I missed the select button on the post-chorus 2 activation and I missed 600 because of it). Since then, I have reFC'd it twice (so 3 FCs in total). This is the best score I was able to get, and it's still almost 1,200 points below UKOGmonkey, who has legit one of the best scores in this game. He hit just about every squeeze possible on this song, and I will never even come close to beating it. GG

I had many problematic sections throughout my grind on this song:
-2:21 I was able to hit these about 80% of the time, but there were a few times where I would just miss here constantly.
-4:14 had a couple dumb misses at the transition to the YB chord. This spot seems broken at times, this seems like this was a problem spot for many people in old vids of this song.
-4:22 sometimes I would oversqueeze at the start of the fast strumming, which really sucked
-4:23 of course I would miss somewhere in the OMGWTFBBQ part every once in a while. Even though I hit it like 95% of the time, the 5% of the time was pretty tilting
-5:02 the transition out of the tapping part into the strums gave me troubles sometimes. If I missed there, I either played the HOPOs too early, or I tapped an extra note when I should've fretted it normally.
-5:06 missed a YB chord once. yikes
-5:21 - 5:26 the double strums in the sweeps would randomly miss sometimes, and the strumming section afterword is super easy to miss for me. If I tried to use the R G hammer ons between the strums I would miss, so I strummed through them most times.
-5:36 - 5:38 same story as above. The hopos between strums can be tough
-5:40 - 5:45 THIS ONE RIGHT HERE. THIS IS WHERE MOST MY RUNS WOULD DIE. FCing up to this point, especially with good squeezes, put my nerves through the roof. My hands would get tangled and just refuse to hit the notes properly, whether I fretted the whole thing or tapped it. My semi-consistent way to hit it was to fret the first half without ever using my pinky, then tap the second half and transition into the quick trills afterword (which surprisingly I hardly ever missed)
-6:12 - 6:14 ALSO THIS ONE RIGHT HERE. Obviously. If I put this section into practice, I could hit it a majority of the time, but never in a real run with an FC up to that point. That's not to say that I couldn't hit it if I had missed prior; If I had missed prior to this section, it was almost guaranteed that I would hit it. infuriating. No exaggeration, I had more than 25 FC runs that died in this section. The nerves were just too damn high. I honestly think the only reason I was able to FC this song for the first time was because I messed up star power earlier, which gave me less nerves because I had already mentally written off that run. Now that I have FC'd this song multiple times, this section isn't nearly as much of a problem.

So there you have it, Fury of the Storm FC. 4/6 GH Dragonforce FCs, just missing both TTFAFs. Very happy to have this song out of the way. This was definitely the song that I feared the most when I started recording this game, and I think it ended up being the song that took me the longest- yes, even longer than Chemical Warfare. And yes, shorter than Black Widow (which is tomorrow baby, get hyped!)

ALSO- I have a 57.2 GB folder of chokes on this song. I'm gonna make choke montages for this and Chemical and upload them as filler videos before I start my next project. You won't wanna miss those, trust me
