When you said inclined I thought you meant the kudari ranpu grasper, but this is actually nice.
Also, contrary to all the no function jokes, I like the rope junction being here, it never was a bad obstacle, it was just a bad stage 3 obstacle (and even then not bad, just badly placed), On a timed course is perfect

Contrary to what TCM said, it doesn't seem to look inclined either. I think it's just the camera angle which makes it look that way.
So essentially it seems to be the same as 9-12's Lamp Grasper except with an extra pair or two of lamps.

It ascends. It gets closer to the blue frame as it goes.

Judging from that picture's angle though it must be pretty gradually ascending. In any case, that change is bound to make it tougher to get through the Lamp Grasper than a straight version of it (especially after doing the Salmon Ladder).

Use a dictionary man www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/inclineIt never says anything about which way it goes... It could have been a downwards incline, like the kudari ranpu grasper

^ But wouldn't that be a decline?

Somewhere in Maryland, Rider is having an aneurysm.
Meanwhile, I wasn't even 100% sure if ascending globe grasping was possible, I guess we're going to find out...
EDIT: Awesome location.

wow the location is pretty sweet!!! Also I think the only obstacle they will change between the MW SC regions is the one before the Warped Wall,
and I really love the amount of changes they've made, thank you for the pictures!! gosh I'm So excited!!!!!
oh and do we know the MW will go first?

I'm assuming Midwest because you can see the small "Midwest Region" sign in the Quad Steps picture.

Besides, if it has a gradual incline (like the one here), it should be able to be completed in the same fashion as the straight and descending versions, albeit more draining. I'm pretty sure it could even be done if it had a steeper incline by climbing it backwards (think Hang Climbing).

Midwest goes first. The rope junction might be a half curtain slider half rope junction combo. The globe grasp does have an incline. For some reason they also have that wheel obstacle from stage 3 that everyone tbought was easy but I saw it on the floor.

They're definitely going to make the globe grasp a decline. I bet they'll raise the part closest to the salmon ladder -- otherwise you'd only have to do 2/3 rungs of the ladder. It wouldn't make sense. They may even lower the end part, otherwise it looks like a 10 foot drop down to the platform.

Maybe that's what we think is the Rope Junction, At first glance it looked like Cycling Road to me. Also Bada, you glad the Spinning Log isn't there?

Oh god let's record this occasion since we'll never see it again... RC is right... It's a christmas miracle... although damn they're starting the christmas season earlier and earlier each year...

They're on going. If Bada doesnt have anything by tonight, there's a chance I may have something by then. Will find out eventually.
