Where have I been? Well, school actually. But also this. This level was rated on the 1.9 GDPS, but then was subsequently unrated for how unbalanced it is. I started playing it while it was rated, but it got unrated before I finished it.

So how unbalanced is HEAT C0MPLEX? Well, for one, everything that isn't a wave is pretty much medium/hard demon. The pre-drop wave is pretty easy, but you can mess it up sometimes. However, the first and second drop waves are exceedingly difficult. It took thousands of attempts to figure out how to get consistent at them, and it didn't help that wave is not my strongest gamemode.

The icing on the cake, however, is the last wave. This last wave is stupidly difficult compared to everything else in the level. The up and down mini-wave movements are extremely precise with a very vague pattern and the big waves are inconsistent in every way. In addition to all of that, the inner slope designs in the mini-wave have square hitboxes on the outside, allowing you to die to invisible hitboxes at times in the section.

In total, I died 162 times on the final wave.

For any very skilled wave player I believe this wouldn't be that hard to complete, but for anyone else, this is ridiculously hard. I'd say - for me - its on par with old Athanatos, or possibly harder.
