So... on top of taking off my headphones during gameplay to hear my keystrokes better, I decided to switch my key setup to bottom row. In the 5 years since I have started playing VSRGs, I have not even once used the bottom row until now, and upon doing so the results ended up being simply phenomenal to me, to say the very least...
There's 20 screenshots, but at this point I don't even care. This was all in one session, I'm still mentally shaking as of writing this.
This was all done on stream as well, so I went ahead and decided to highlight the entire session for any inquisitive soul's viewing pleasure.

Also scores are not purely in chronological order since some of them do stand out more than others after all. Anyway, here goes.
Phase 1: Escalation
was right after a rather quick warmup, ez
from failing miserably to break past 93 on this due to poor control... to getting this on 1.1... what
ez, not super good compared to the rest of the session but I'll take it
improvable but probably won't be touching this for a while unless I'm really feeling it
Phase 2: Ascension
what
misread do what rashidon't
pretty glad I can finally do this comfortably, pa's pretty messy but that should do for now
Phase 3: Unadulterated Absurdity
that cbrush at the end ruined an otherwise absolutely godlike run, w/e keeping this for now
lmao this is easily one of the most outstanding of the bunch
botched the 97 due to trill misread, still a very respectable first AA nonetheless
was pretty much smooth sailing aside from a couple transitions
pretty sure that's actually fucking absurd
actually held AA pace until the last set of streams and lost control due to density reasons
I ended up passing it right afterwards, but with a score only very marginally better than what I got upon failing it.
nigro circulation one gay - it's still too fast for me to properly control but I'll take it
This actually happened during my cooldown phase, but I deemed it to be just impressive enough to feature here instead.
To my understanding, my ability to handle polys is actually relatively above-average: as demonstrated by my control until I ended up completely tanking on the second half due to my stamina getting absolutely decimated in no small part because of the stuff I had been pulling off this session.
Definitely going to give this another run someday considering it has been a major goal of mine for a very long time... that is, once I muster up the patience to put up with the awful intro again.
Phase 4: Cooldown
to clarify, I was already pretty drained after my attempts on a reyvateil's curse, makiba (twice), and lhc's op this session - therefore rip my pa
8 misses might be decent though... maybe?
my control tanked due to aforementioned fatigue but this didn't turn out too bad I think
96 is rather respectable for 1.1, was feeling rather relaxed on this run as well
300 sustained streams, handled them quite well considering I chose 1.4 for cooldown purposes
Last song of the session, and as such I decided to make it count.
It's a chart of my own creation. 280 JS, an extended run of 210 jumptrills, a bursty colored jack/trill section to test control... and 140 handjacks that practically last forever, with the only one true stamina break being like 3/4 into the file.
I died on the very last note of the very last set of relentless handjacks, rip. A rather fitting way to end the session considering I probably wasn't going to get any more notable scores anyway.
If anyone wishes to try it, you can get it
here.
at any rate I'm probably going to take a couple days off in case my hands end up getting ebolaids to the point of me becoming unable to pass ageha 1.0
in the event that I end up getting proven wrong much to my surprise, well... that's fine too
