From the 2+2 entry, it's best to put in effort and mash, thinking the late spike has started. For the stairs, find all possible mash paths to minimize misses. For the half, based on mashing while looking at the 4-note side, alternate between 12-beat 3 times and 16-beat 2 times; if you're lucky, you can even get a full combo. After that, it's important to fill your gauge before the bracket and stair runs, which are basically prayer-meta.

Cleared by following the pro tip from Shin-ko about "stretching out" to get through the second half. The run section is manageable if you use 13231 for the stairs, and for the reverse stairs, I recommend practicing the specific 13231 pattern to preserve gauge. For the half-notes, if you mash them in groups of 4, you waste leg strength, so it might actually be better to stand still and drag-step them one by one. The key seems to be how much gauge you can preserve from the bracket jack to the half-notes. (If your gauge is still near full after the half-notes, it's worth attempting the final part).

If you take it easy in the beginning and start stepping properly from the 2+2 bracket section, you can fill your hidden gauge to the max before the run starts. You have to be careful with the 210 BPM stairs and reverse stairs, as it's easy to miss 1 or 2 notes. Your gauge shouldn't be seen dropping during the 4-half twist. For the final bracket, you have to stretch your feet as far as possible to barely hit the notes.
