Everypony knows this game is godawful easy.
But there is a reason that Chop Chop is so awful and weak.
In the old days, Chop Chop was the king of damage and chaos, and rules without the iron fist, yet decided and succeeded in defeating it in a pure mortal state... But alas, this is a story for another time, and I put forth a proposition of true difficulty today, to fix our problems of gods and kings and (insert fancy-sounding thing here).
Please give feedback on what could be changed if you attempt this challenge.
PROPOSITION CHOP CHOP
A single stone rule applies to all modes: use Chop Chop at all times to finish the game. Easy. Eeyup.
If you wish to you can change any other rule but your record will not count on our WINNER! list and only the R.I.G.S. list.
REMEMBER- The only solid rule is that you MUST use CHOP CHOP or LEGENDARY CHOP CHOP only(and not allowed to use the other as a substitute).
Difficulty 1: Clouberry Kingdom
Searching up and seeing Cloudberry Kingdom should tell you how hard I intend this to be.
Not allowed to buy Upgrades.
Not allowed to finish Heroics.
Can only visit each level once. (No HP grinding!)
If Chop Chop needs to rest, it's game over and you need to start a new file.
Magic Items and Location Pieces in levels are banned.
Visiting Adventure Pack levels is fine, though. One visit rule still applies.
Game over and start a new file if you hit an enemy with a Bomb or Rockets. (Exlcuding obstacles requiring it and Chainsaws in Falling Forests Wii)
Difficulty 2: Dark Souls
Should make it fair for beginners.
Allowed to buy Basic Upgrades.
Allowed to finish Speed Heroics.
Allowed to visit each level twice.
If Chop Chop needs to rest, restart the chapter. If he needs to rest again throughout any point of the game, however, it's game over and you need to start a new file.
Magic Items and Location Pieces are banned.
Visiting Adventure Pack levels is fine, though. Two visits rule still applies.
Game over and start a new file if you KO an enemy with a Bomb or Rockets. (Exlcuding obstacles requiring it and Chainsaws in Falling Forests Wii)
Difficulty 3: Mutant Mudds
By no standard is the eShop game easy... Other than this challenge.
Allowed to buy Basic Upgrades and one Path Upgrade.
Allowed to finish Speed Heroics.
If Chop Chop needs to rest, restart the chapter. If he needs to rest again within the same chapter, it's game over and you need to start a new file.
Magic Items are banned. Location Pieces are not banned but can only be used once each in the game.
Visiting Adventure Pack levels is fine.
Restart the chapter as if Chop Chop needs to rest if you defeat an enemy with a Bomb or Rockets. (Exlcuding obastacles requiring it and Chainsaws in Falling Forests Wii)

I'm re-opening this topic for any of the many challengers to finish, or for more people to restart. I give all credit to Nibelit for creating this awesome challenge, good luck to all competitors.
Well, you can now use other Skylanders, but if you do, run it by me and I'll see if it's ok.
