Yamada beat the Circle Slider easily in 17. And he has shown that he can move fast enough to beat stage 1. I really don't see him having a problem in stage 1 except for the Warped Wall. If he can clear that on his first or second try, he can beat the stage. I don't think the Circle Slider from 17 is the same one in 25. I think the ring in 25 is higher and further out, but I'm sure someone out there can confirm that.

I hope someone does pass the UCH be pretty boring to see the tournament end on that again especially if they all fail first two ledges again lol. Or if it ends on it at least have someone come close to almost doing it.

I think that when someone beats the huge tranfer to ledge three then that very small ledge will get the first one to get there.

My hope: The ratings will be at least 10%.

Stage 3...make it harder after the UL-CLI. The obstacles after it seem - no, I'm not going to say easy.They would kick my a** anyway- to need to be improved. Sure, the obstacles before drain you, but once people master the UL-CLI we're going to see people coming really close to the end, if not beating it. Yeah I'm sure they'll add some harder stuff in there. They knew nobody was getting past the UCH so they didn't need to bother thinking about what to put after it. Next time they'll show what they really wanted there.

Next time they'll show what they really wanted there. I dunno about that. Now I agree that they seriously didn't think anyone was going to beat it, but it seems they put a *lot* of effort into the end of stage 3, which is why they were willing to show it off in clips at the end of the show. I'm thinking stage 3 will remain the same, with the exception of *maybe* the beginning of the stage, just so people have something new to try before the UCH, as well as if they want to have mercy on their contestants, which allows a *bit* more strength remaining before they attempt the UCH. Nonetheless, I doubt the UCH and anything after it will change, and I still don't see anyone beating Stage 3 for Sasuke 26.

well, we were talking about Stage 3 so I don't know if it counts as a 19&20-like suicide.. I personally would like to see one or two competitors making it one or two obstacles after the UL-CLI but struggling and fighting with all their energies to get through the obstacles.

The jumping pipe would be much easier to jump onto the platform from because it doesn't move.

They might change the ascending ropes after the jumping rings for something much harder but other than that the stage will remain the same.

For some reason I want the No Function obstacle to stay. Perhaps make it harder, or add one or two obstacles.
Btw guys...for those who still had doubts, Sasuke 26 is pretty much confirmed. Check the Taiwan Trials thread.

How is that any more viable than ANW2?

Of course, what I meant was just for stage 3, they won't make stage 1 or 2 super harder or anything, I was just saying in later tournaments stage 3 after the UCH there will be new obstacles I'm sure of it!

I wouldn't be so sure -- Sasuke's Third Stage has only had one obstacle that was changed before it was attempted, the Sending Climber/Ascending Climb -- and even then all that happened was the artifacts were made to be bigger and the name change to Hang Climbing.

Wanna see Kongu win it all. People underestimate his ability. As far as progressing through stages in limited competitions hes almost surpassed Bunpei Shiratori's credentials which gave him the "All-Star" status
