It feels so easy now, but I struggled so much with this level when I was beating it the first time. I think the fast gamemode switches at the drop caused me a lot of trouble.

Deco could use a little more variation. The buildup is done very well, though; absolutely the most memorable part of the level.

Yeah, the nerfdate didn't make it any better than it already was. Making the speed portals visible was a good move, but the UFO part in the predrop flowed much better without the magenta orbs, and the robot part in the drop doesn't feel the same without the speed portal spam.

It's a little learny, and the portal spam may be especially frustrating for less experienced players, but I'd say it's definitely good enough to be featured in the gauntlets.

Pretty fun level. The coins are fun to look for as well.

I had a really unlucky experience with this one. I feel like I died to almost everything imaginable — even the wall at 98. Despite this, I still had an overall enjoyable experience, which is better than I can say about some map pack levels.

I remember dropping this one multiple times because I wasn't that great at ship. Pretty fun level once you are, though.

I like arrows. They're a cool shape. I believe I've had generally positive opinions on arrows for a good chunk of my life, but it's possible that this level may have contributed to how much I like arrows now. It's got those great big concentric circles of arrows in the beginning, and it's got all sorts of arrows in the drop. And I originally beat it as part of my Easy Demon Alphabet I did back when easy demons still felt more challenging to me, which gave the level plenty more time to leave an impression on me. Can't say for certain, of course, but the smallest things can have a big influence sometimes.

If you're bad at ship control like I am, this is the level to beat.

Pretty good gameplay and deco, especially for its time. Definitely deserving of its spot among the legends.
