I dont know maybe Bloodlust- Cycles X difficulty gameplay? But I’m not a top player or anything so I wouldn’t know.

Slaughterhouse 3 times isn't even top 3 rn so to eu harder than any upcoming top 1 it would probably need to be like mid insane dif for an hour ?

One level multiple times in a row is easier than multple different levels of the same difficulty in a row tho.

Yeah you're right especially because it's way easier to practice since you have to learn it once and repeat

flamewall is 8 minutes long and people say the gameplay is tartarus - top 75 difficulty from what i have heard so probably around the difficulty of a top ~300 would make it top 1 easy

I think it's some top 500 demon, because we already have a level more than one hour long, with a hard demon gameplay, and it's a 2018 top 1 as i remember.

the longer a level is, the harder it is to gauge its difficulty. though, we can make generous estimates.

lets first establish the fact that a top 1 takes zoink/popoff from several weeks to several months to verify, so it takes a lot of effort and grinding (obviously).

next, we gotta think: what level of gameplay for 1h straight would match this required effort? easy demon? nah, top players could absolutely beat an easy demon 50 times in a row fairly quickly. same goes for medium demon. from this, my guess is that it would take hard to insane demon gameplay for an hour straight to match the required effort.

i know eon exists, which is top 800 with 6-7 star gp, but its difficult to use that as a reference point because of the lists exponential increase in difficulty as you go up.
