Hardest Stage 1 ever

[SuperTiger]

Ok in your opinion, what is the hardest stage 1 you've ever seen, like I said, try not to base your choice off the amount of people that cleared, try to base it off the difficulty of the obstacle, however it's your choice. Please post a reply instead of just voting, were trying to spark discussion with these topics not just vote and thats it.

7 because of the log jam and flying pillar.

1 and 7 are obviously the top 2...

6 MAY be harder than 1, but that's debatable, and it's sure as hell not harder than 7.

But a lot of people think the triple windmill corss and tornado run were incredibly hard obstacles and once down-graded or taken out made stage 1 a lot easier.

From Konuichi 1-2 it became a LOT easier, and from 6-7 it became a LOT harder.

So those are defiantely the top 2, which is harder? That's definately a topic to debate about... but I'd say 7... the log jam was pure evil.

Definitly 7, I mean they make you press the button before the Log Jam so if you take your time you miss the pillar, if you move to quick you can lose your balance, if you jump wrong you can go off the course (And despite what the one girl thought, you can't keep going after that).
Not to mention the Yellow Post obstacle with that trampoline that threw everyone off making them think you have to jump for it when that just makes you have to hold on and grab tightly with a drop making it about like the Log Grip in a way.

How is 6 almost as hard as 1/ may be harder than 1(just wondering), ummm six had no hop rocket, no dancing stones, the float run and falling pole were a joke(6 was tough, but we are refering to stage 1, not 3 or time trial 2), while every obstacle in Kunoichi 1 was a landmine, they could all defeat you so easily. But I do agree with y'all in saying that 7 is the toughest, if you made it past the log jam and flying pillar you still had 3 obstacles ahead that were killers not to mention the lilypads took out a good number of people, If they put in 1 tough obstacle after the yellow post they've got themself a pretty tough stage 1 and change the ladder to where the competitors don't use the side of the ladder, like how tanaka climbs up it. It's obvious that the format goes as so.
1-2(easier)2-3(easier)3-4(harder)4-5(slightly harder)5-6(easier)6-7(really harder)

I'd have to say Kunoichi 7 was the hardest stage 1. IMO, Kunoichi 1 and 7 had the toughest first stages. But, I'm trying to think if the competitors of Kunoichi 1 faced Kunoichi 7's first stage how would they do or vice versa. I feel that if Kunoichi 1's competitors faced Kunoichi 7's first stage, then possibly no one would've cleared. But, if Kunoichi 7's competitors faced Kunoichi 1's first stage, then there may have been better results than the original.

I'll be the black sheep and say Kunoichi 1.

Kunoichi 1 was the only tournament where the first stage time limit was a large factor. Also, every single obstacle was waiting to be failed:

The Dancing Stones are good at knocking out people and slowing them down.
The triple Windmill Cross ate a ton a time (and was hard).
The Barrel Roll is and was always hard.
The Tornado Run was insane.
The Triple Hurdle was the tallest out of all versions (even when it was in Stage 2)
The Escape Ladder is also a time waster.

Kunoichi 7's first stage is definitely the second hardest. Although the Log Jam might be the overall hardest obstacle, the combination of the triple Windmill Cross, Tornado Run, and very tall Triple Hurdle make Kunoichi 1 the hardest in my opinion.

I din't even look at the date, I just saw that it was a few threads down. Sorry

[SuperTiger]

theres no problem bringing up a dead topic, besides Kunoichi could use discussion right now.

7 due to log jam

[BLM]

kunoichi 7 had the new hop rocket and the log jam the hardest obstacles ever created for the course

[intelligentinfer]

Really sorry for reviving , but in K1, like in Sasuke 1, the obstacles are easy, but unknown to most, and that made it hard, although it was hard enough. Basically I still say it was K7.

Didn't need a revived thread...

But to keep it alive.. Kunoichi 7 was hardest because of the Log Jam and that evil yellow posted Hop Rocket.

lfrt's statement still stands.


As for on-topic discussion - I would have to say K7 as well.

Two obstacles that directly correlate with one another for the completion of a stage, that just blows K1's "new" and "unknown" factor out of the water.

1, 2 people passed, were crushed in seconds on stage 2 and the time limit made it impossible anyways.

Please don't revive threads that are a year old.

I think it is Kunoichi 7 because very many obstacles like the Log Jam and Hop Rocket that were hard. But the 2nd - 4th stages were very hard too
