Xul'Horac Mythic 11/13M
DPS requirements: high
Overall difficulty: 8/10
Attempts: 129
World rank: 2094
Either we were so unskilled, or this boss was very hard, but we wasted so much time here. It was actually so easy - put green on one side, purple on another, if different patches are close come and explode it, while others have to move away. But no, people were totally blind to see Shadowfel Annihilation. The fight itself is very short - less than 4 minutes in our gear, but we couldn't make it for so long.
To be honest, I see many guilds are struggling to kill this boss, even after first kill, I don't know why. Seems we are skilled enough, just the boss is hard :)

Isaac: Best game so far, but ...
That was my best game so far in terms of luck with items. My first item was Lucky Foot, that's why I believed this game should be really lucky :) So it was! In the first Treasure Room I got piercing shots ability, after 2nd boss I had a chance to step into Devil's Room. I had 4 hearth containers, so I decided to exchange two for The Pact - damage and tears bonus. In The Catacombs I had a chance to step into another Devil's Room, and you know who awaited me there? That flying guy, who drops Lump of Coal :)
Now my damage was superb, knights was not a problem at all, everything died so fast. And right before Mom I found My Reflection. Now imagine this: maximum damage multiplied by piercing shots + Lump of Coal damage bonus + boomerang shots, that scales with Lump so well + Hard Knuckle multiplier. I never had so huge damage! I killed Lokii (that's right, double "i") in about ummm ... 5 seconds!
Now the most funny part - I had like 6 hearth containers, 2 of them was empty at the moment I encountered It's Alive. I had one of those Telepills with me. I didn't plan to use it, but clicked on it by mistake, and ...
... it teleported me to "I'm Error" room! O_o Can you imagine this? :D Now, that's not all. The room was full of pills, 5 of them was the pills with +1 hearth container effect! Have you ever seen so much luck in one run? :D
I came to Satan with 11 hearth containers, 4 of them was empty though. Eh, if only I didn't get hit by those damn eye right before Satan :( You see this screen? I died right in the moment Satan's leg had HP to be one-shotted - I needed only 1-2 seconds, yet ... yeah, this game is really hard, and depends on luck :)

SC II: Day 7
Ugh, short break due to exams, but here we go!
Mission 09 - The Temple of Unification
Difficulty: 2,5/5
Tries: 2
Savegames: 18
I'm not going to comment on the mission since its average difficulty, but I want to say a few words about cinematic before the next mission. It was freaking awesome! Really! I may sound naïve, but I like it very much when forces unite. In any game, movie, or book, I like when enemies finally make piece and starting to work together. Also, I missed Kerrigan :) Really, don't tell me, that you didn't :)
Mission 10 - The Infinite Cycle
Difficulty: 2/5
Tries: 1
Savegames: 10
I don't want to say that the mission is easy. Even if you have only two units, if you don't use all your abilities right enemies overwhelm you. The hardest moment was in the end when you must defeat huge army of protoss and hybrids while being chased by big ray. I used "Load" button about 50 times here.

Tyrant Velhari 10/13M
Tactical requirements: high
DPS requirements: very high
Overall difficulty: 9/10
Attempts: 147
World rank: 1073
Funny thing - we killed Velhari right after 6.2.3 was released. Though we could finish this encounter weeks ago, we were clearly lacking DPS, and DPS requiremends for this fight are VERY high. This boss is difficult, really it is, each phase is a challenge, but this is all due to "kill it fast before it kills you" mechanics. I believe this is the first boss to be trivialized right after people will get enough Valor for their upgrades.

SC II: Day 6
Mission 08 - Forbidden Weapon
Difficulty: 4,5/5
Tries: 4
Savegames: 45
Another very hard mission. Your time is very short, enemies are numerous. When you are far away you cannot defend your base, since enemies attacks you from the gates you cannot breach. I cannot even say how many times I used "Load" button here - probably about a hundred times - even this didn't save me from starting it over and over again. The key to the success in this mission is combination of Stalkers shield regeneration ability via Blink and ship's Freeze ability (very useful btw, you can stop and destroy entire army - 20 seconds of freeze). Though as you see on the screenshot I BARELY made it in time even with savegames.
