Sanae is the worst Ex midboss, simply because of Bumper Crop.

Her first two spells are easy though

that's false because it can be bombskipped with no trouble
it's not even that hard to capture

[Magical Glace]

All Ex midboss spells can be bombskipped, so not really a valid argument as to why she's not the hardest due to the spell

And yes it is :v. The approach is hard as hell to pull off.

[ZemZem]

You make it sound like Bumper Crop is impossible. :V

Regardless, you're overrating Sanae's difficulty. If you keep complaining about it, then maybe you're not ready for SA Extra, silly.

[Magical Glace]

That's not what I'm saying.

I know it can be done, but I also firmly believe it is among the hardest, as far as I'm concerned, THE hardest, Ex midboss attack. Only real competition it has is Ex Kogasa # 2.

[Emeraldfox]

pwnt

[ZemZem]

Alright, then I understand what you're saying.

Just go unfocused for Kogasa's second spell. No horizontal, too. Helps a lot.

[Kriemhild]

Agreed on Sanae being the worst EX midboss ever. I still can't capture Bumper Crop, and Miracle Fruit causes me to screw up more often than I'd expect for a spell that looks so simple.

I can still clear SA Ex though, at least with Yukari.

[Magical Glace]

Right

[ZemZem]

I think I should just do a green UFO route for Lunatic. I can easily get max bombs by Kogasa.

B-but I desire Konngara art.

Deliver, thread.

[Julius Nepos]

I love green Konngara~

Also, help me find the picture in this vid please.

[Julius Nepos]

Thank you, Shezzy, my friend.

Congratulations, Annie!

You should rank them from best to worst

[ZemZem]

Go show me up already ZM.

All I need to do is beat your highest score. Regardless, congrats.

> 1.5B

Yeah, you can do it. Probably not in your first clear but it should be easy to beat after that.

NOW GO DO IT ALREADY

[ZemZem]

XD I'm sure that I have the potential to reach even 2bil. I learn fast.

Putting this here, too. Damn, LoLK is hard.

[ZemZem]

You should try the demo, Shezzy.

All four difficulties are tougher than they usually are. ZUN rushed the demo for Reitaisai 12.

Also Pointdevice is a thing.

[ZemZem]

No no, Pointdevice grants infinite lives.

It's alright. It's just a demo.

[Magical Glace]

Congratulations, Annie!

You should rank them from best to worst

Best tier

Remilia Solo

Border Team

Scarlet Team

Pretty good Tier

Netherworld Team

Yukari Solo

Yuyuko Solo

Magic team

Okay tier

Alice Solo

Marisa Solo

Youmu Solo

Bad tier

Reimu Solo

Sakuya Solo

REasoning: Youkai solos are always better than human solos for the Ex. Immunity to familiars is a huge boon for stuff like Xu Fu and Woo. Remilia melts everything, and can autocollect fast, so she takes the top spot. Border comes after, due to being able to safespot things easier (but not by much). Then Scarlet, which has painfully slow unfocus speed (a major drawback for stage segments) but still has Remilia.

Magic is the lowest of the teams, because they have the second hardest time capping FoFS with the safespot (after Alice Solo) and they lack an effective approach to Kedama spam. Alice > Marisa because youkai and she can actually do damage in this stage, alongside being better at oval spam.
