The Forgotten Top 1s

[@AeonAir]

Wcropolix and Angelic Blood still deserve to be rated to this day. Great video :)

[@thegreatestcheese]

oh wow aeon is here i didnt expect that

[@therealgustagd]

i agree

[@robloxgamer5656]

Looks like I’m actually kind of early to an Aeon comment

[@sameeknowsitall]

I think athanasia deserves a rate.

[@ShockwaveDash777]

Yea i agree, aeon

[@TYATYAPKA]

Diabolic Clubstep is so forgotten that it's not even in this video...

[@brachiozaur6745]

Hipo as the first victor has stated the level to be easier than Tartarus while being more reliable so it's not missing. It never was a top 1.

[@Niteowl11611]

It wasn't a top 1 though

[@SavutGD]

Wasnt rated

[@ЯйцоОлеговна]

Hipo is not very sure of his opinion because his skill increased very much by the time he completed Diabolic Clubstep in comparison with the time he completed Tartarus. Diabolic Clubstep does not have a very large gap in difficulty from Tartarus, so with different skill sets and experience the level may be for someone - Tartarus is easier, but for some it is more difficult; the same situation is with Sonic Wave Infinity, Oblivion, Arcturus​@@brachiozaur6745

[@vhypo]

i was so surprised to see you beat angelic blood when i was in the middle of researching this

[@Skyymon]

in a lot of cases, id assume its either rob simply not liking the level, as was the case with wcropolix, or the level not getting enough attention somehow, like diabolic clubstep

[@lekhanh20100]

ok crimson planet

[@squidsalotl]

Poor Virus, he made two really cool levels but they never saw the light of day. Imagine someone makes a really hard remake of one of them and it lands in the top 10.

[@shiver8082]

Don’t think they need a remake. They’re still really cool levels especially for their time

[@squidsalotl]

@@shiver8082 Definitely, but I feel like they could be brought up to today's standards and possibly even rated.

[@shiver8082]

@@squidsalotl I think it’s fine as it is. Remakes are unnecessary and it takes away the charm of the level. Just let it be

[@Sweepingly123]

There is a level named Solarion that could be considered a remake/sequel of Angelic Blood (Same color scheme, same part of that song and pretty similar gameplay) that was rated in 2021.

[@mantra-hf6ej]

I don't think levels with the gameplay standards of 2016-2018 levels should be superbuffed to 2024 top 10 difficulty. They'd be insanely unfun and inaccessible (APT seems like a relevant example).

[@Kyass]

This reminds me of 2018 gd content like "Levels that should be rated" Kind of nostalgic. Good video!

[@CairoGaming]

To add to the wcropolix story I went and remade the level only for it to get lost in the demon voting system and a few mods said they didn't like the original lvl so they wouldn't send it. It was verified by hipo and I think it's the closest it got to a rating. Also LN was sort of robbed of a top 1 cuz it was verified after crimson planet so if it got rated sooner it could've placed for a short time until zodiac got rated. Anyways rant over have a nice day :)

[@staringcorgi6475]

I wish demon rating wasn’t this bias because why give demons special treatment why not expand this treatment to all levels or not at all

[@Crazey]

The fact that I actually know Athanasia from way back in 2018 is insane, I was like "what is this impossible level" back then cause I was really bad at the game, it's also funny cause I found it randomly. Great video btw!!

[@Vision-ky7ew]

Not the video talking about the forgotten Top 1s being forgotten by the YT algorithm 😭😭😭 Nice video, tho, and a good list of levels to beat. It's actually amazing to see what people have achieved over time. Sad they were forgotten. Edit: I was sooo wrong. I'm glad to see you being noticed. Definitely deserves it 👏

[@pearl3scent]

Really good video, thank you for helping shine light on some of the forgotten history of the game. I feel like a lot of the Unrated List was referenced for this, and I deeply appreciate that.

[@superkobster]

moral of the story: the demons list should place unrated levels

[@charmmosu]

Global list moment, definitely

[@superkobster]

@@charmmosu they don't place all unrated levels though

[@charmmosu]

@@superkobster they dont have to💀 They place levels that can potentially be rated or rate-worthy

[@あなたは本当に敗北した]

The already is an Unrated Demons list

[@ArqadeGD]

they probably will when grief is verified cuz of cbf rating stuff

[@literallyeveryytbereverpar9629]

you should do a part 2 with robbed rated top 1's like Gamma, SWI, Arcturus, The Hell Zone, and Spacial Rend. Love the video though (I already knew about all of these because I have a ranking of all top 1's plus all possible top 1's), but I did learn a few things from it. You're mad underrated. Edit: Hard machine and Oblivion have been placed below what they were thought to be harder than, and everybody and their mother in the gd community knows about silent clubstep.

Really good video, I learned a lot of stuff I didn't know and I've been around in this community for a long time.

[@fusionberry7332]

your REALLY close to 1k subs! Hope you get more popular cuz this is hella underated! :)

[@plasmakitten4261]

Bro put Crimson Planet in the intro but then didnt actually talk about it. I know its a well known, but its in the same category as some of these levels and Wooshi remains to this day extremely underrated for just how far ahead of everyone else he was when verifying CP

[@staringcorgi6475]

Wooshi isn’t really underrated because he was the best player at the time along with diamondsplash in his day

[@pandemonium7456]

Banger vid man and it's very unfortunate for all the players but that's how it goes i guess

This video was really well-made! Glad to see you blowing up.

Sorry for asking, but... If I remember correctly, WcropoliX's music was supposed to be The Big Black - The Quick Brown Fox right?

Dude if WcropoliX ever got rated BlassCFB would be renowned as one of the greatest players of all time. Any veteran will already tell you Blass is one of the greatest players to ever touch this game because of how little he struggled with levels but since he quit rather early almost no one remembers him

[@MXGaming01_gd]

you are crazy... You uploaded your first video 7 days ago and you have 7k views on it already. This just proofed that you are making REALLY good content and you should keep it up. I didnt even had to watch the entire Video before you earned a sub more :D

[@exiled_shadegd]

Learning about Sakupen Realm was interesting, the only one i didnt know about Also Wooshi got Lucid Nightmares AND Crimson Planet robbed from him, because both were rated long after their verifications, both would have been consecutive top 1s

[@JoinMolten]

great video, i do have some issues with the editing. most being song choice, transitions being very sudden, and unsteady volume. but other than that, its a well-written script with good narration. my only issue with the script was that you neglected to mention some key details involving the levels and their verifiers.

[@vhypo]

i edited the entire thing in one sitting so perhaps i should spend more time on the audio next time

[@Amisora]

Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing their editing improve. Some of the song choices were a bit off

[@jakemileham]

levels that people take forever to verify only for them to not be rated, is geometry dash's equivalent of a tragedy. some people put all their mental health on the line for it.

Still hoping to this day WcropoliX gets rated man. RobTop has rated year old levels before and rated levels due to community pressure. I don’t know why Rob is so against rating it. He’s never even acknowledged it.

[@jmstudios457]

being someone who basically ate, slept and breathed gd for basically the entirety of 2.0, the level I followed and looked upon most fondly was Yatagarasu. I mean most people consider it mid and nothing important, but like BoJ it was four years ahead of it's time. I don't blame Trusta for the nerfs. That was a completely reasonable decision. This might be rose tinted glasses, but the level that released was neutered to a point of insignificance. A shadow of what it promised to be. Like, imagine what would have happen if cyclic's part made it into the final version and the unnerfed version got verified. That beautiful, unbalanced, terrible mess. It took eight months for quasar to beat BB, two days for surv to beat yata.
