Bleed 2 - SSS Rank on Very Hard at every Story level with every character
0That's 126 S'es in total.
Big shout-out to daniele.ramose on Bleed Discord for figuring out how to get S at style with Valentine on level 1, which seemed completely impossible at first, and to Jakuts for maintaining a friendly and active community over the years in general.
Some of these are significantly harder with the extra characters than with Wryn/Rival. The time limit of 5m45s on level 5 in particular makes it absolutely brutal for Plucky and The Clawed Girl: not only you have to do no damage, you have to do no damage while playing aggressive with the bosses and moving fast through those tricky bubble-filled corridors.
In the end, though, all of it turned out to be possible after enough practice. With all those different movesets, difficulties, modes and mutators, Bleed 2 has a ton of permutations, and it seems that the developer gave enough thought to practically every single one of them. An extremely well-done game, and I'm glad I got to explore its hidden depths with this challenge.
