Touhou 06 - Embodiment of Scarlet Devil Normal 1cc Guide

[@banjogyro]

Wow after years of playing Touhou as a kid I only now realize I should have looked at strategies for each spell card instead of improvising them

[@dimagridxxx]

But you had a path of a true warrior

[@toribirb]

in a month and a half I got all 4 good endings and now I am practicing the extra stage. Thank you for the guide. edit: I cleared the extra stage!

[@dzargamer]

me after watching this guide: omg this guide is so good, I can 1cc EoSD now me after an hour: noooo, how tf can I dodge Cirno's Icicle fall

[@Glatier]

just move horizontally through the ice shards while dodging the yellow orbs and you're good to go

[@dzargamer]

@@Glatier thanks, that should help me a lots

[@geeseispluralforgoose]

true that thing always be blunderingh me

[@sonicdml4175]

Just Spellcard through it, it isn't worth dodging

[@jvnz1]

I'd like to add some notes of mine: - On Cirno, the third wave of her first non-spell is aimed in a way can be dodged by tapping to the side. - On Patchouli, both her non-spells are a mix of static and aimed. Her lasers are static, if she shoots the lasers left to right then right to left, the next time she shoots is right to left then left to right, and vice versa. Stream the bullets and watch for her movement. - On Sakuya, the blue and red knives she threw on the previous wave can also be turned green, so you should look for those too just to be sure you're not sniped from behind. - On Remilia in her last spell, count the waves to 5. Her fifth wave is always the fast bubble bullets. This will remember you when trying to dodge the bubbles. If you die or bomb, reset the count until she shoots a new wave.

[@kochiyasanae1604]

Cool tips, thanks for the support!

[@epicduckyman]

This is going to be a life saver for me. Sakuya's misdirection freaked me out every single time haha

[@RhythicManRhythm]

I've got 3/4 of the good endings but I think it's about time I watched this video. It can really help. (Edit: 17 minutes later that makes 4/4. Thank you for your service!)

[@kochiyasanae1604]

Stage 1: 0:00 Midboss Rumia: 0:34 Rumia: 1:29 Stage 2: 2:10 Midboss Daiyousei: 2:53 Cirno: 3:50 Stage 3: 5:10 Midboss Meiling: 6:14 Meiling: 7:17 Stage 4: 8:46 Green Books: 9:44 Midboss Koakuma: 9:55 Patchouli: 11:45 Stage 5: 13:45 Midboss Sakuya: 14:45 Sakuya 15:59 Stage 6: 17:48 Midboss Sakuya: 18:35 Remilia: 19:05

[@Alucard-mj6yj]

This vid got me my first 1cc in like a week of practice thank you so much

[@Hambs23]

It seems I was completely screwing myself on Sakuya's first mini boss. Bombing second phase and getting washed away by the rain of bullets.

[@akiraigarashi2874]

Managed to finish stage 6 on normal after continues thanks to this guide. I definitely need to practice the stages more before I can 1cc. Wonder how hard Flan is going to be considering Remilia is already so tough.

[@akiraigarashi2874]

Can't believe I managed to do a 1cc this fast. Guess I'll do the other 3 endings before going for the extra stage.

[@lunaticluna0]

Surprised this was requested over UFO, I'd say the latter is more difficult considering Stage 4-6's bosses. Can't wait for UFO though, it still somehow manages to destroy me, even with 6 lives going into Stage 5.

[@kochiyasanae1604]

Yeah and there are guides for EoSD. My advice for UFO is: Collect as many resources as possible for first 3 stages and use them on Murasa's last 2 spells, midboss Nazrin, most of Shou and Byakuren. Greens are better for survival if you use all of them before dying. Use SanaeB if you aren't using her. If you are using her, power loss is really harsh for SanaeB. She is really bad below 3.00 power.

[@lunaticluna0]

Thank you. Never tried Sanae B but it can't be too different from Marisa B, what I already use. Power loss will be rough on Shou and Byakuren, but it's worth a shot.

[@kochiyasanae1604]

I haven't heard good things about MarisaB. And I never used her. But SanaeB should be easier to 1CC with.

[@aruhe6650]

This is really helpful, thanks

[@wawan7282]

Man, you Made it look easy

[@InkkuStudio]

My main problem with EoSD so far is precisely the RNG and Sakuya bs, like, for the most part (while playing on normal of course) I do fine, mostly pattern recognition after playing a few times, but then either Cirno or Meiling sometimes force me to bomb in their RNG spell cards, then Patchouli stage usually takes from me another bomb, Patchouli herself with her own bs sometimes makes me bomb (I swear to god, there are times where I can't see where to dodge AT ALL), and then there's Sakuya, who is somehow the hardest boss at least on normal despite not being, you know, the final boss. At least Remi has like only one bs spell card, the rest of spell and non spell are surprisingly easy to dodge for me, so once I get to her, it usually becomes an already won run. Still... I just did my first 1cc today, so don't take too seriously that last part lol. And f Sakuya, I love her but I hate her but I love her.

[@thisrandomdude_]

for other aspiring touhou clearers like me, know that you can 'focus' with the Shift key and skip dialogue with Ctrl!! spamming Z for dialogue is too slow and alternating Z and X can make you waste a bomb if you're not careful. unfortunately it was a while before I learned about these, kept wondering what the deal was and how to shotgun properly like in the vid haha. hope this helps!!?

[@SergioGamer75]

thanks

[@Merciless_Marbles]

Omg this is so helpful, but I always use reimu a and I think it's better than reimu b but I'm not sure if it's ok to use reimu a for a better 1cc...

[@sleeper6548]

Man I was able to do no hit till sakuya fairly consistently yesterday and now I am losing all lives in rumia fight the hell

[@sankalchi]

OMG i just beat this thank you

[@Norve17]

Damn it I reach remilia with 5 live and six bomb, I thought I will guaranteed to 1cc but unfortunately I underestimate her

[@ZaphireDespacio]

[@fool4343]

i always died even on easy like 9 years ago, so i wanted to try and at least beat normal, but found myself dying to stupid things. hope this will help me

[@geeseispluralforgoose]

One question: Does getting closer to the boss make your attacks more potent? I was wondering if the bosses would lose more hp by going closer to them than camping at the bottom, because the further down you go the more your shots sort of diverge. (but if youre closer its shown in more concentrated amounts where they overlap) errr couldnt find results for this weird query on the web

[@geeseispluralforgoose]

that aside, thanks so much for this guide though!

[@LeivenFrestea]

Though I haven't researched, I'm sure they do

[@geeseispluralforgoose]

@@LeivenFrestea im gonna go experiment on touhou 6 probably cirno and see how it goes both ways

[@geeseispluralforgoose]

Actually yeah its more potent when you get closer but not by a too significant margin, just some extra seconds saved. Honestly its not worth it to change your playing style deliberately for it unless youre aiming for some really good runs or a specific goal Edit: or maybe its because i play with reimu A with the homing bullets

[@thewagnershow999]

No se como hacer que las bolitas al costado de reimu puedan moverse de forma vertical ñ, alguien podría ayudarme???

[@despoming2478]

Presiona shift

[@thewagnershow999]

@despoming2478 Gracias eso lo cambia todo

[@pootispotato6143]

just started touhou today, how do u attract powers and points? like that magnet thingy where it just comes to you?

[@trgtheredghost6528]

Simply go near the top of the screen. In eosd you need max power before the point of collection works though

[@IEatHats]

Thanks to this video, I was finally able to 1cc Eosd. Onto the extra stage now.

[@sh1gd]

Hello, is extra stage required to consider a run a 1cc?

[@lilithbiggay]

Nope

[@spelzarfurawa4769]

sorry but the theme of stage 4 has not been sung by yuyoyuppe

[@imagaylol]

what's the key to focus?

[@drillguy17]

left shift.
