Main purpose I'm putting this up is mostly because I haven't gotten a run where I actually managed to get past Elm Order until now. I don't really know how this thing fights. Focused on keeping things at rank 0 just to keep things manageable past area 4. Not that difficult to do with Type-S since I think the requirements to qualify is based on score if I remember correctly. Just need to make sure I don't get hit too much or else Elm Order wouldn't show up.
This game is also one I kind of wanted to learn on controller. Hard to say which is easier between controller and keyboard, but I think my arm isn't as tired during a run compared to when I used keyboard.
I kind of want to focus on the other difficulties at rank 0.
