The Frozen Half's "Maximum power!" ice storm is, without a doubt, the hardest attack to straight up skill dodge without cheesing with Mist form or Opal Circlet. I'd always seen this pathway between the chunks of ice, but didn't think Alucard had the speed to move between them. I figured that's just what Power of Mist or Opal Circlet was for.

But I was determined to bullet hell my way through, and holy hell does it require PRECISE movements. Not a single turn can be wasted. No change in direction can be a few frames too early or late. As soon as you move left, you have to be ready to turn right before it's too late.

What makes this more possible than I first assumed is that, despite the size of the ice chunks, the edge of their sprite doesn't actually have a hitbox, so you can just barely clip them and not get hit.

tl;dr it can be done!
