Oh boy we are finally here, finally after exactly 2 months of rebeating subsonic and starting nhelv, I got a new hardest. I was searching for some levels that would improve my wave skills (sparkling hope was my previous wave hardest before completion of this), and my friend cinasek told me to try some runs from startpos on this level. I decided, I will give it a shot and I learned second half pretty fast. I was struggling on the first part of drop, but it got pretty consistent at some time. I thought I have no chance on this level when I did 58% x3 and 60%, because I barely passed 0-39% from 0. When I was on 62%+ for the first time, I did 77% as a fluke from 60%. Then I thought I can beat it fast from that point, but I was wrong. I fluked somehow 82% mini wave but died on bug on 84%. Second and third ending attempt, was 89% x2 really stupid death. One day later I did my worst fail on extreme demon being 97% (last click because next one is just buffer). I mindblocked and for next few days I kept dying past 62% and I have like 50 deaths past 62%, and 70-80 past 60% which is crazy. I did 3 days ago another ending attempt being 84% bug again and that demotivated me that I dropped level for 2 days. I didn't planned to beat it right now, I just played for fun, because I had a feeling that I have to play this level today. I did 56-100 pretty fast, and 16-67, I decided to go from 0 and my first drop attempt was 81%, which motivated me to push this. I did 64% on another drop attempt, and then some stupid deaths before 62%. I knew I lost consistency so I went to startpos and did 56-100, and then I knew I can come back to the level, and I got this winning attempt.
Level overall is very good to play and consistent, but my mentality to this game is very bad so I had bad experience. I really recommend this level to anyone who wants to beat first wave extreme, because I did it as my first and jump from sparkling hope (hard demon).

About the level:

0-16: Easiest part of the level which gets very consistent at time but when you play this for the first time, cube maze might be pretty hard

16-28: When I started playing from zero, this part was impossible for me, because of first clicks on drop (first click and portal click), but this part is very consistent after time.

28-40: This part is one of my least enjoyed parts because of 3 spam sections in a row, and then weird wave after spam and later pretty big chokepoint for me being 35% portal clicks, and after this, you have easy cube section where if you click in the middle of orbs, you will be good.

40-50: Definitely this is a part that killed me most of time, I really hate this part because of tight gaps, especially 46% like wtf is that gap? and earlier wave is awkward to play. After 46% you have a weird click on 48% which after you have to hold and release to get through one gap, and after it you have pretty hard 2 mini wave clicks which are very consistent, but rest of this part is a huge chokepoint.

50-62: This part looks really hard at first, but luckily it's very fun and consistent. There are duals which you have to click two times, and later one time to pass, and then you have some wave gaps, nothing special, except the portal click that is really hard at first but also very consistent. But after that you have one of the most weird and hard wave clicks on 60% which killed me so many times, it is just very awkward and pretty hard which is not 100% consistent.

62-73: This part starts with pretty hard wave release which killed me a few times, but it's not that hard, later you have two wave clicks, tight gap, portal click, and this sounds pretty hard, but after portal click you have 2 wave clicks, which I've died more than on earlier parts. Then you have some weird holds, which can kill you from 0 but it's pretty easy, then you have spam which is not that bad, and after that spam, next wave section is like impossible to get consistent from startpos. This moment contains at first some little clicks, then holds, and again micro click, wtf is that? But it's very fun from 0 and from every other startpos earlier than 62%.

73-83: Very scary part from 0, but it starts with easy dual, which you have to focus only on wave, then some wave gaps, and then huge chokepoint incoming. 77% dual wave never gets consistent, because you always have to be as close to the structure as possible, because upper wave will fail. After this you have some spam and then you have 82% wave which is hard af

84-100: no comments, shit part
