Among the table-filling levels I've played, this is certainly my favourite map. The level is an exciting mixture of well positioned enemies and traps all over. There are quite some similarity with plutonia12 "Speed" by the way. There's a possibility to cut most of the level with an AV jump from the first secret area, which allows to pick up very early the BFG, but I couldnt really figure out a route time-wise leading to a big improvement. Problems in doing so are tricky fights where you got to "wait", or where enemies actually damages each other pretty well, and wiping other rooms in the meanwhile is the best. The BFG area and the final ones may be the most dangerous ones by the way. It's common to be blasted by the 2archviles before killing them due to the random teleporting, and being surrounded in the ending is easy. To avoid this to happen, I stepped till the end of the passage to allow the monster to pop in and regroup close, while I cleared the last mancubus. This also meant safer and faster clearing of the MM and the rest before going to the exit line. Previous valid DSDA record was Qaatar's 03:4x recorded in the beta version of the wad. Too bad the 3min barrier wasn't broken here, but all my best attempts after this time, failed at the BFG area. Probably among the best demos of mine in 2011.
