|pyro = A very, very meh level. A lot of the enemies placed here can be easily avoided, and there's large chunks of level where every challenge is just laughably skippable. There's this long vertical drop with a bunch of enemies that you can just find a hole in near the top and fall down the entire shaft and never get hit. There's a room with like 3 crystal joes that you can just get out of before they can fire. There's a Metall gumball machine miniboss that you can just snipe from a ladder with no danger whatsoever. The only real parts of the level that are threatening are the parts that are really obnoxious - the beginning part with Apache Joes and the part with the guts lifts. Apache Joe part speaks for itself, and the Guts Lift part just has annoying jumps due to Lyrics and weirdly placed drop lines. The fan part at the end is okay. Then there's a Quint fight and then the level's over. Uhh...yeah.

Make a Good Mega Man Level 2

Overview

Airflow Hubble is the 73rd place entry in Make A Good Mega Man Level 2. It contains Guts Man lifts, numerous spikes, and only a single checkpoint halfway through the stage (not even in the boss hallway). It is notorious for its usage of respawning enemies (mostly Apache Joes), Guts Lifts that attempt to hide their holes for dropping the player, and either very punishing situations or very questionable enemy placement.


Strategy

The stage is will typically be too difficult for the average player, as well as most seasoned players. Thus, it is advised to skip it. Those that attempt it will NEED to use weapons to bypass certain sections. Two big offenders being the wall near the beginning, and the sections with Guts Lifts over spikes. The former requires either Super Arrow or Wheel Cutter to reach the top, and the latter needing Sakugarne for safety measures. Surprisingly, the stage gets easier once the checkpoint is actually reached. The stage gives up on the Guts Lifts for a fan section in the second half (not without one last one that's very tough though), and having an unmodified fight with Quint at the end.

A very, very meh level. A lot of the enemies placed here can be easily avoided, and there's large chunks of level where every challenge is just laughably skippable. There's this long vertical drop with a bunch of enemies that you can just find a hole in near the top and fall down the entire shaft and never get hit.

This level was badly designed all the way through. At the beginning, you put like 3 Copter Joes, one of those missile guys, a line of Mets, and 2 of those laser-shooting space walkers...it's all too much and basically requires weapons, which isn't good.
