Grandspell by Hylen (Future 10, EX sightread) - arcaea v6.11

Описание: Recorded on november 26th, 2025

HYLEN IS IN ARCAEA THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!!! Same person who made that bizarre remix of "dream away" by dj genki and then they come out of nowhere for arcaea. It's gotta be connected, this update added a REDALiCE song too, I think hylen remixing a tano*c song has to do with this. maybe.

This song is SO unique from a lot of the current arcaea song roster, it almost feels experimental... while trying not to be? Like a semi full-flavor song, using genres that all intertwine with one similar theme/intensity, stuff like "trap" & "dubstep" & "rawstyle" & "color bass" elements gosh you name it. The bridges feel oddly atmospheric too. Also the rhythm changing at the start and end even though the BPM is marked as constant? Weird but lowiro's done that before anyway.

As for the chart... exschwasion... oh exschwasion you never fail to fluster me. Always making some of the most innovative gameplay, time and time again, that arcaea ever sees. For more than half the song I could not believe what I was playing and how I even managed to gain a grasp on most of it. And then I got up to the rawstyle at 2:12? OH god that felt so good to play. Easily my most favorite part. It's like you know what's up my alley, exschwasion. But it should've been a few measures longer.
2:27 is the hardest part in the entire chart. I had to learn how to cheese it whatever.
Speaking of learning, I did that an hour ago and i learned nothing else as a result. Had the phenomenon where I missed in the hardest part, then learned it, then missed everywhere but the hardest part. I hate it so much.
Don't get me wrong, this is one of the best charts I think I've played but I'm just inconsistent at it. Really doesn't help that it's not cold enough inside despite it being almost winter weather right now, so I was getting really hot over the course of learning that one same "hardest" pattern AND THEN made the mistake of playing the song in full more; my entire torso was sweating at that point. I think it just needs a rest cause I couldn't even trace the swirlies correctly anymore, nor the arc tails to save my life. Like the tables turned on me once I learned the "hardest" part. The goddamn mindblocks dude.

In my current mental state I'm believing this is a borderline ftr 10/10+ (10.6/.7). I'm being serious. don't act like I ain't seen you smirking. nothing's funny about that. what are you doing with your hands. no. stop. oh my god i dont understand you people.
Okay but like who CAN rate exschwasion songs correctly in this day and age? Yeah. That's what i thought.
UPDATE: APPARENTLY ITS A 10.2????? WE CANNOT BE SERIOUS BRO WE JUST BE CALLING DIBS ON A RANDOM 10.X CC FOR EXSCH'S CHARTS AND CALLING IT A DAY

So no clue if heavily aim-based charts are my weakness or if I'm being held back by my frail stamina. Or time pressure stress. It's probably all three. Gosh i love this to death but i'm getting mad at it. Dont think youve won me over yet exschwasion
