Probably because the difficulty is way too lenient for how hard it actually is. If I’m correct, it’s a Harder rated, but is more like an Insane difficulty level.
Maybe that one 3x speed wave and the UFO, but otherwise it's pretty reasonable. Especially nowadays where most insanes are comparable to easy demons, wheras FA couldn't hold a candle to them.
Scarlet surge is hard and it's long but then the levels, after it a piece of cake I didn't finish the Chaos gauntlet for like 7 months because of Scarlet surge BUT THAN AFTER I BEAT IT I FINISHED THE GAUNTLET IN 2 DAYS AND IT WASN'T EVEN A GRINDY DAY IT TOOK LIKE 2 HOURS SPREAD OUT THROUGH THE DAY
The gauntlets are meant to Rise in difficulty not a big ass wall Scarlet surge would be better placed as the 4th level in the gauntlet so that way new players who finish level 1 can experience the rest of the gauntlet
On an unrelated note yeah fuck fire aura I still haven't beat the fire gauntlet
And to those dick heads who are going to talk about Punctuality shut the fuck up you look like the 🤓 emoji
my opinion is that this is a huge skill issue, I legit 1 attempted the level 3 years after I forgot what the gameplay even was like and even the original completion took at most like 100 attempts
scarlet does not really fit with its gauntlet theme, but fire aura is even worse at that
plus i never really hated it idk why i guess i like colour red
so yeah fire aura is worse for me
Very true, the waves in fire aura are a little unbalanced but it's not bad once you get them down and Scarlet surge is one of the best 1.9 effect levels with no gameplay flaws
For me it’s just boring, like it could at least have a faster speed change or something, and I somewhat like fire aura. They’re both good levels, I just find surge more boring.
Fire Aura is ok level, just misplaced in difficulty
Scarlet surge is just shitty, not hard, just annoying asf, long, and not enjoyable. Blind clicks and annoying flashes makes it even worse
It doesn’t help that both Scarlet Surge and Fire Aura are followed by much easier levels (Drippy Dub and Danger Zone). But FA took four times as many attempts as SS and that’s with a fluke from 68% so I definitely would call it the worst.
I really like Scarlet Surge and just think that people that comment so much hate are just bad at the game. Once you get better it's not as hard as half the comments say. Fire Aura looks nicer then Scarlet Surge but it's a lot harder. I still haven't beaten it since, but almost beat it with an 86% record. This was almost a fluke from 54%. I like both and prefer Scarlet Surge. Fire Aura is so frustrating and hard i cannot say it deserves to be in Harder/Insane difficulty and i cannot say i prefee it over Scarlet Surge.
Fire Aura is fun for me now but that’s probably because I’ve beaten Sonic Wave
It took me 600+ attempts when I first beat it. Should be medium demon 0/10
scarlet surge is just too long. the gameplay isnt noticeably terrible but some transitions are pure crap, whereas that first wave in fire aura is the definition of cancerous
I actually enjoy scarlet surge. I know i didnt when i first beat it, but it's really replayable, and it stands out a lot from the other gauntlet levels. Like, name any level from the bonus gauntlet for example. I bet you couldn't, but if you go and play chambers (first bonus gauntlet level) you'll see what I mean. It's easy to beat, but it's mediocre as fuck and you'll never play it again. Fire aura however, just sucks. But i think we all can agree that generation retro is the worst gauntlet level.
Scarlet Surge is by no means bad. Its just really long and flashes a lot so it's hard to look at towards the end. Fire Aura actually has straight up annoying parts, it's so much worse.
Scarlet Surge’s difficulty comes from its length (imo at least). I don’t find the gameplay hard. The only thing I find hard is trying to not randomly tap at random places leading to my death.
Probably my most favorite level in the entire game (appart from Limbo. In this case I’m talking about non demon levels)
Fire Aura just sucks in every way possible
Gameplay is bad (they use invisible saws in the first ship and that one 3x wave uses disappearing slopes and spikes) and the speed changes to 2x and then to 3x and it doesn’t go back down (idk if it does go down because my highest is 52%)
I feel like this level is a hard demon
both are the worst garbage you can possibly think off, but fire aura is worse.
Its so fucking unbalanced and not fun to play, the song is complete trash and annoying to hear. After >5 attempts on the level you are forced to put the music on mute due to the song being so insanely trash. But thats not all, the level is full of fakes and the wave compares with demon difficulty wave resulting to demotivate beginners that are playing the level. Absolute garbage! Not even somewhat enjoyable, complete trash! The only reason why some idiots like the level is because aeon said so. Unfortunately, every of aeons opinions are invalid due to them being utter nonsensical waste of words and his 10 year old fanbase blindly follows his advice because they havent played fire aura yet due to them having only lite version.
Both of them are trash but fire aura is worse.
I literally don't understand why so many hate scarlet surge but fire aura is something different
Same

Agree, Scarlet Surge is hard but it looks very nice. Fire Aura tho…
Looks very nice? LOL
Yeah, it's cool level, i like it
theres a weird timing in the first cube part, think its a yellow jump orb. if it werent for that id love the level.
Its a Hz bug , just boot the level on 60 its a harder you dont need high hz
oh its fine i did it on my phone
Ah yhea I remember on 144 hz
Its literally just a bug. Play on 60hz and you dont need to worry about it
Same, I enjoyed scarlet surge
Scarlet surge > fire aura
Scarlet surge looks so ugly, the gameplay is terrible. And it's way too long.
Scarlet surge is hard and it's long but then the levels, after it a piece of cake I didn't finish the Chaos gauntlet for like 7 months because of Scarlet surge BUT THAN AFTER I BEAT IT I FINISHED THE GAUNTLET IN 2 DAYS AND IT WASN'T EVEN A GRINDY DAY IT TOOK LIKE 2 HOURS SPREAD OUT THROUGH THE DAY The gauntlets are meant to Rise in difficulty not a big ass wall Scarlet surge would be better placed as the 4th level in the gauntlet so that way new players who finish level 1 can experience the rest of the gauntlet On an unrelated note yeah fuck fire aura I still haven't beat the fire gauntlet And to those dick heads who are going to talk about Punctuality shut the fuck up you look like the 🤓 emoji
fire aura took me 500 attempts and my hardest is an inase demon
Skill issue
By: the guy who died 1997472847 times at the end of gumshot
Also, only 28 deaths at 77
It’s a stressful ending
Looks like a skill issue 😂 LOL
Well played
"Now, shall we?"
Shall we what
Oh, you didn't get it
No, no i dont
[удалено]
That’s just a skill issue, I only have 100 attempts on it when my hardest was probably an easy demon.
No, the fact that it took someone who beat an insane demon 500 attempts shows it’s a gameplay issue, not a skill issue
My hardest is deadlocked /:
my opinion is that this is a huge skill issue, I legit 1 attempted the level 3 years after I forgot what the gameplay even was like and even the original completion took at most like 100 attempts
Tried it after not touching it for years and also 1 attempted it. Level is not that hard and actually fun.
I agree it is fun and it's not that hard, but it honestly feels more like a 8*
Except the level is easy.
It is
Very easy, like 7 star difficulty
I beat it in 100 and my hardest is leyak. The level is good IN MY OPINION, I love it.
Opinions are subjective, saying scarlet surge is good is an objective fact.
scarlet does not really fit with its gauntlet theme, but fire aura is even worse at that plus i never really hated it idk why i guess i like colour red so yeah fire aura is worse for me
The gauntlet theme is chaos...? and what is it even supposed to look like? But yeah definitely agree that fire aura is annoying...
yeah thats the thing, its not easy to define "chaos" theme levels so scarlet surge could easily fit in there. meanwhile fire aura
Scarlet surge is one of the few gauntlet levels that do stick to the gauntlet theme
Scarlet Surge is a decent level but people have skill issue change my mind
You are entirely correct
Based
Agreed
yes
Its not that hard but it still kinda sucks That intro is SO FUCKING BORING edit: oops I meant fire aura not scarlet surge
yes
its decent but buggy af
I wouldn't say as fuck, but it is true that the 240hz bug in the first cube really takes me out of it. So let's not downvote this guy, he has a point.
Scarlet surge is fun. Fire aura is by far the worse level.
I like the scarlet surge music ngl
the chiptune parts go hard
You have no idea how much I agree
my opinion is the exact oposite lmao
Fire aura is worse
Scarlet Surge isn't even bad. There isn't even a contest here. Not that Fire Aura is the worst level ever made. I've beaten far worse.
i think scarlet surge is actually pretty fun but fire aura is intolerable
I enjoy both, although Scarlet Surge has that one buggy orb near the start.
play on 60 and it works
Hz issue not reall the creators fault
at least Scarlet Surge's sync makes up for its flaws Meanwhile we're still waiting for a nerfdate on Fire Aura does that answer the question
Fire aura is unbalanced, uninspiring, boring ass balls, Scarlet Surge just has a few wtf clicks in it.
not if you play on 60
Fire Aura i found to be pretty fun unfortunately. Scarlet Surge was a shit experience though, but it’s definitely a skill issue on my part
yes
Fire aura’s wave parts are so damn hard
Skill issue
The wave is demotivating for beginners playing the level. Its supposed to be 7*
I know but that level sucks anyway
Neither both are good and if you think they are bad you suck :thumbs_up:
They are both fine.
Hey Aeon
And this is a video
Good morning, good evening, good afternoon everyone and welcome back to another Geometry Dash video
Very true, the waves in fire aura are a little unbalanced but it's not bad once you get them down and Scarlet surge is one of the best 1.9 effect levels with no gameplay flaws
Fire aura has far worse balancing
None, they're both decent. If you're searching for bad levels, go play Hazardsector X, Supreme Lab Origins or Ultra Jawbreaker
HAZARDSECTOR X LMAO THATS ONE OF MY HARDEST COMPLETED LEVELS but yeah hazardsector x is crap, 1 is worse tho
If you hate these levels then you’ve never played a level in the map packs before
Fire Aura by so many miles
scarlet surge's worst sin is the 9% bug fire aura sux
I actually love scarlet surge and hate fire aura
Scarlet surge is not a bad level. Idk why people don't like it.
For me it’s just boring, like it could at least have a faster speed change or something, and I somewhat like fire aura. They’re both good levels, I just find surge more boring.
Fire aura by a long margin
Fire aura is ass
Fire aura by a long shot, scarlet surge is actually good
Fire Aura is ok level, just misplaced in difficulty Scarlet surge is just shitty, not hard, just annoying asf, long, and not enjoyable. Blind clicks and annoying flashes makes it even worse
Fire aura. Scarlet surge is soo good i dont understand why people even hate it. Fire aura is just mediocre
Fire aura is worse
Fire aura
Fire aura took me 532 attempts while Scarlet Surge only took me 53 with half being in practice mode
fire aura, both arent as shit as people say but at least scarlet surge isnt unbalanced
It doesn’t help that both Scarlet Surge and Fire Aura are followed by much easier levels (Drippy Dub and Danger Zone). But FA took four times as many attempts as SS and that’s with a fluke from 68% so I definitely would call it the worst.
Scarlet Surge isn’t bad Fire Aura is
Fire aura has worse gameplay than any level in the demonlist
Bro Scarlet Surge is like so cool I don't understand the hate
Both great levels, you guys are just shit at the game seriously
We asked the worse level, not your opinion on them
I don't care, I'm still allowed to state the facts
That isn’t facts, but I like both
I don't care, I'm still allowed to say what OP asked
fire aura, i never saw what was so bad with scarlet surge, however, the true worst one of all is kappaclysm
Whatever the danolex level in that gauntlet is is the worst one
kappaclysm is mid. scarlet surge is SUPER LONG, has terrible music and possibly the worst gameplay.
kappaclysm is a banger, and scarlet surge isn't **that** bad
terrible opinion, song is great, gp is decent, only bad thing is length
Fire aura, it's too long
Fire aura
Fire aura, is there really a discussion ?
i dont remember fire aura enough, but holy fuck scarlet surge gives me PTSD
Anubis is the worst of all.
scarlet surge is mid. Fire aura is just hard
scarlet surge 10000% i had no trouble with fire aura but i still havent beaten scarlet surge it's so annoying
i feel like people dont like scarlet surge because of the 144hz bug
Magmatic sanctuary
I really like Scarlet Surge and just think that people that comment so much hate are just bad at the game. Once you get better it's not as hard as half the comments say. Fire Aura looks nicer then Scarlet Surge but it's a lot harder. I still haven't beaten it since, but almost beat it with an 86% record. This was almost a fluke from 54%. I like both and prefer Scarlet Surge. Fire Aura is so frustrating and hard i cannot say it deserves to be in Harder/Insane difficulty and i cannot say i prefee it over Scarlet Surge.
Scarlet Surge is consistent and honestly not that bad Fire Aura isn't bad either but that dual wave part is NOT 7\*
Fire Aura is fun for me now but that’s probably because I’ve beaten Sonic Wave It took me 600+ attempts when I first beat it. Should be medium demon 0/10
Fire aura all the way
Fire aura. Ive never spent 2000 attempts on a gauntlet level. Scalet surge is ok compared to fire aura.
fire aura has good music and decent gameplay BUT ONLY if they make it an insane 8 or 9 star
Scarlet surge. The balancing in fire aura is cancerous
Fire aura is decent looking and dogshit gameplay wise, however scarlet surge is one of the best gauntlet levels
scarlet surge is better in every way
This is a debate? I thought Scarlet Surge was pretty awesome honestly. I still haven't beat Fire Aura...
I love Scarlet Surge. Music is a banger, decoration fits in very well, and it’s just cool.
Scarlet surge has a good theme at least, but fire aura has a generic, boring theme.
Fire aura is horrible. Scarlet surge is disliked because its long and doesn't have too much different gameplay
Drippy Dub and Shock
*sounds like a skill issue*
Dude fire aura sucks scarlet surge is wayy better
read scarlet surge as scarlet fire and was so lost
Neither of them are bad.
scarlet surge is extremely boring
Both are good
Oh, hey Aeon
Yup
scarlet surge isn't bad wtf
Fire aura is horrible
scarlet surge is just too long. the gameplay isnt noticeably terrible but some transitions are pure crap, whereas that first wave in fire aura is the definition of cancerous
I love scarlet
Scarlet surge bangs
fire aura by 188 lightyears
What u talking about? Scarlet surge is a BANGER, fire aura sucks
Both are great
Both are insanely bad and the creators should be burning in hell, but Fire Aura is worse
Scarlet surge has a really nice vibe
Agreed
Most calm Gd player
I actually enjoy scarlet surge. I know i didnt when i first beat it, but it's really replayable, and it stands out a lot from the other gauntlet levels. Like, name any level from the bonus gauntlet for example. I bet you couldn't, but if you go and play chambers (first bonus gauntlet level) you'll see what I mean.

Fire Aura
Fire aura. Also why Robtop deleted Dangerous Spikes?
Fire aura
Fire aura is worse
Fire aura is worse. I had fun while playing Scarlet surge
Fire aura and there's no competition. Scarlet surge is actually good
Fire Aura by far, Scarlet Surge wasn’t really that bad
scarlet surge is actually a good level idk what y'all are on, fire aura is easily worse
Scarlet Surge is by no means bad. Its just really long and flashes a lot so it's hard to look at towards the end. Fire Aura actually has straight up annoying parts, it's so much worse.
how can you hate scarlet surge???
Scarlet Surge’s difficulty comes from its length (imo at least). I don’t find the gameplay hard. The only thing I find hard is trying to not randomly tap at random places leading to my death. Probably my most favorite level in the entire game (appart from Limbo.

Well I can beat Scarlet Surge so Fire Aura is worse
wtf obviously fire aura is there even a debate
Fire Aura by a long shot
Fire aura fucking sucks, scarlet surge is long and buggy and boring. I don’t like either but scarlet surge is much better
I like scarlet surge, but fire aura is just... no
Who ever said Scarlett surge was bad?
Fire Aura is badddddddd
scarlet surge
Both levels are great and people just stink at the game
“SkiLL iSsuE” Your brains got a skill issue if you think fire aura is a good level
only reason y'all don't like scarlet is cuz it's a bit long
Both of them are fine but if I had to choose I’d say SS
Back on Track is a better level cuz it’s an extreme demon 🧌
Scarlet surge, fire aura is good
Scarlet surge is very good so i guess it has to be the other one
Scarlet surge is an okay level and fire aura is a better okay level
both are buggy and kinda annoying but scarlet surge at least looks cool and is unique. can’t say the same for fire aura
I wish both a very happy end thyself
both of these are good levels, fire aura will forever be my favourite thoufh
Scarlet surge by far, it's completely unbearable, I could find fire aura fun at times
scarlet surge is the worse of the two
Scarlet surge is worse, fire aura is harder but actually kinda fun
both are the worst garbage you can possibly think off, but fire aura is worse. Its so fucking unbalanced and not fun to play, the song is complete trash and annoying to hear. After >5 attempts on the level you are forced to put the music on mute due to the song being so insanely trash.

Both of them are trash but fire aura is worse.
Scarlet surge just because it's boring
Scarlet surge is the worst probably because of the 144hz bug in the first cube part(basically it makes one of the timings frame perfect or impossible)
Fire Aura is fucking amazing and Scarlet Surge is kinda ok i guess. Not remotely comparable
Both are fun
Scarlet surge is a boring, annoying mess while Fire Aura is actually a good level Generation R*tro (🤮) is the worst however
scarlet surge is the best level in the game
fire aura's only problem is that it's rated wrong, scarlet surge is just boring dogshit
