Scarlet Surge is one of the most over-hated levels in GD history , it's the second level of the Chaos gauntlet , located between Anubis and Drippy Dub .

The level has gotten an INSANE amount of hate over the years but i think this is only a skill issue because although it's not the best thing in the world , it's light years away from being THIS bad !

The gameplay is fine and uses all the gamemodes available at the time ( 1.9 ) . It's also important to note that Scarlet Surge is one of the few levels i know that uses mirror portals , yet are still fun ! An insane achievement by Insendium ! But , the gameplay is not perfect : it's not the most entertaining thing in the world which would have been fine if the level was a normal length however it's XL so it gets quite boring fairly quickly . Also , some transitions are buggy and the first ufo part is almost impossible to die to .

In terms of deco , there aren't that many ways for the level to fit its theme better in 1.9 but it's not the best even at the time , it's also non epileptic friendly which brings the note further down ( it's also why NC levels can't get 10/10 in deco unless we find a why to fix this somehow ) . It also brings the question of what was RobTop thinking when picked a non epileptic friendly level for the most important gauntlet in the game ?!

In conclusion : Although not the best , Scarlet Surge is an ok level that doesn't deserve the amount of hate it got ! Let's show it some love !
