Streamer Achieves Full Combo on Guitar Hero's Toughest Song at Double Speed

Clone Hero streamer and content creator CarnyJared has achieved an extraordinary milestone by successfully full comboing (FC) DragonForce's iconic Guitar Hero 3 song, Through the Fire and Flames, at an astounding 200% speed. This remarkable feat, described by CarnyJared as "IT. IS. OVER," was accomplished and documented on February 27, following a rigorous nine-month practice regimen.

In his video's description, CarnyJared expressed immense gratitude towards his supporters on Twitch and YouTube, acknowledging their crucial role in his success. "I am rightfully thankful for everybody that has supported me throughout this ridiculous grind. I have the best supporters on the entire platform of Twitch and YouTube," he stated. He further emphasized the collective effort spent analyzing the song's 3,722 notes to find the most efficient way to hit them all.

The complexity of Through the Fire and Flames at regular speed is already a challenge, but watching CarnyJared navigate it at double speed is truly mind-boggling. Completing this seven-and-a-half-minute song in just over three minutes is a testament to his skill and dedication.

Achieving a full combo in Clone Hero means playing a song from start to finish without missing a single note. CarnyJared's video stats show his progress, with nearly 2,000 FC runs past the first bridge, 662 past the second, and 227 to the solo section. His successful 200% speed FC of Through the Fire and Flames marks only his fourth time passing the solo.

Reflecting on his achievement, CarnyJared said, "This is a moment that will live with me forever." He expressed deep appreciation for his family's support and the community that has enabled him to make a living from playing Clone Hero. He described the FC as the "hardest thing" he's ever done, a sentiment echoed in the celebration that followed his successful run.

For fans eager to delve deeper into this achievement, CarnyJared announced plans for a "1 hour+" documentary to be released in the coming months, offering insights into how such a feat is possible in the world of Guitar Hero and Clone Hero.
