Touhou 14: Double Dealing Character - Lunatic SakuyaB No Deaths No Bombs

[@kerok2420]

truly the Brazil of touhou shot types

[@Guilherme_Sena]

so that's what B stands for

[@incerabbit]

honestly insane

[@pokemonkarma]

Holy fuck that midboss Seija in Stage 6, still have nightmares about it

[@CreepyNinja]

Pog, congratulations fam!

[@ВладиславДимов-ю5х]

Quality thumbnail, also congrats you!

[@xtquakex1596]

I actually in disbelief you grinded this out so quickly, absolutely incredible!

[@brendansage6876]

Sakuya: "The missions, the... nightmares.... They're over. I'm finally... free...."

[@niklasstg6957]

Wow, congrats that you did it

[@--Lucy--]

Congrats Yatsu, very well played, super very well played!!

[@Clownplease]

Amazing job. You are the first to LNN DCC with sakuya b no? If you're going to continue these worst shot type runs, I suggest solo Alice in IN. With no coverage stage 3 is almost undoable.

[@chaosomega623]

Oh hey its the one and only Clownplease

[@xQQxAspyx]

SOC is the first. First in the west then.

[@Yatsuzume]

but it scores tho

That's a crazy achievement to get, congrats

[@hinanawi_tenshi]

Congrats for making the thing with Sakuya B, that was truly a fantastic run. Btw, according to the ISCORE calculator, I found that LNNN with Marisa A would give player a lot of points than Sakuya B. Does that make beating this game with Marisa A much more harder than with Sakuya B?

[@Yatsuzume]

I'm not completely sure myself, but they're both very difficult runs. MarisaA is generally a better shot than SakuyaB, but her performance against Benben (stage 4) is really bad. Benben as a whole is a really messy boss, but the other A shots have broken DPS so they can speedkill most of her patterns before they become a problem. MarisaA doesn't have that privilege, and this makes the whole fight really stupid. Yatsuhashi takes a lot of practice to get somewhat consistent on (mainly because of Requiem), but for Benben's 3rd non it's still up to debate if some consistency is even possible in the first place 😶. That being said, I remember when people thought the same of Requiem, so maybe someone will develop Benben more in the future and get really good at her. If we're just talking about beating the game, rather than LNN, SakuyaB is certainly the worst shot because at least MarisaA's bomb is powerful.

[@hinanawi_tenshi]

Yeah, Marisa A in this game definitely was given one of the worst shot types ever and honestly, I always feel inconvenient when using her in this game. Short-range attack, which means that you have to go up high on the screen to force a strong damage against the boss, leading to the risk of getting hit by those bullets flying around. Anyway, thanks a lot for spending your time answering my concern with such a detailed analysis. I hope you will get a good result in next TWC match 👍

[@Mugenri]

Okay, but how many attempts did it take you to sync up your menu navigation with the title theme?

[@Yatsuzume]

1 didn't even do a particularly good job lol

[@Mugenri]

@@Yatsuzume first try tho

Bullet hell, indeed. And you played on the highest difficulty level? Well, it certainly lives up to its name of "lunatic". D:

Wow! Now that’s impressive

[@tplayer23424]

this feat looks more impressive than mushi futari ultra normal palm

[@xEchoAlertx]

Could I ask for some of your thoughts about reading/routing Requiem? (Don’t know if this is a good place to inquire, but I watched your recent video, in which you mentioned that you have a bunch of strats floating around that you like to share, so I thought I might as well ask!) I’m starting to think I might want to make DDC (with MariB) my next LNN project, but this spell is definitely a major red flag! Anyway, it was awesome to watch this vid when it came out, and it’s a lot of fun to rewatch it now!

[@Yatsuzume]

With MarisaB, you can do Requiem in 2½ waves, right before you need to pass the big geyser a 3rd time. With SakuyaB this becomes 3½. Getting a feeling for this speedkill is the most important. As for reading the bullets, what worked best for me is to keep a large "omnidirectional" reading window on my sprite, but peeking at the bottom of the big geyser right after it starts moving again, to identify a sweetspot for the scary dodge in the middle. On the sides, if you stay at about middle height, you usually get a breather in terms of bullet density, so use that to deal good damage to Yatsuhashi and fix your reading window if you need to.

[@xEchoAlertx]

@@Yatsuzume thanks for the reply! I’m excited to throw a bunch more practice attempts into this, and these suggestions will be cool to think about and use

[@dma-oc1wm]

congrats that you did it Question, I start playing on Lunatic and I have only beat touhou 7 on Lunatic. What other game should I go for? edit: I have beat touhou 14 and 8 , thanks for your suggestion :) . in general, touhou 14 is the hardest game I have beat on Lunatic, it is a RNG nightmare, you must finish the spell very Quickly otherwise you have to bomb or die though it is still fun. Now, I can really appreciate this run :)

[@OrdinaryDemon]

Probably 8 or 13, because they are on the easier side?

[@nicolasvignolo7601]

Yeah, I'd say go for 8, I got that one before 7

[@ari7rin]

i never got a lunatic 1cc but i'd say IN, it gives a lot of resources too

[@ВладиславДимов-ю5х]

8, 13, maybe 10

[@iTheBeep]

10 is very doable on Lunatic, especially with the shitton of bombs you get

[@ASE-PRL]

you won

[@baoq.b2287]

SakuyaB is the only shot type I haven't able to 1cc normal so congrats lol. Between this and LoLK LNN Marisa, which one do you think is harder?

[@Yatsuzume]

DDC SakuyaB

[@dio_fumo]

[@tplayer23424]

what are the top 2 hardest nons of ddc lnn sakuyab?

[@Chipbeams]

No "Lunatic PERFECT", run invalid

[@OneSaltyBruh]

Yatsuzume scoring run when?

[@yargroco.5882]

Now do it with Marisa

[@ВладиславДимов-ю5х]

Why, did you use only japanese translation, not english?

[@Yatsuzume]

thats a good question

[@32th]

We enthusiasts like to enthusiasm over the brilliant way ZUN translated his game into his mother tounge

[@DoubleRainbows667]

Good question.

[@lib6194]

nice finally you've achieved this thing now go LNN LoLK with Marisa or HSiFS with CirnoSummer

[@abarette_]

isn't CirnoSummer one of the best shottypes for HSiFS Lunatic? lol

[@lib6194]

@@abarette_ only SakuyaB could match her level of DPS and HSiFS's bosses are prettyvharrd

[@abarette_]

@@lib6194 oh yeah obviously Cirno is shit in DPS. But the thing is that in HSiFS you just use releases the same way you could use Vampire Fang to speedkill the bosses lol So unless you do a LNN,N of HSiFS, HSiFS is still one of the easiest to LNN

[@lib6194]

@@abarette_ oh yeah I forgot 1 N. HSiFS LNN would be trivial with an Autumn shot that way
