DMC3SE Vergil New Game DMD 100% M18 SS

Rules: 1. Fresh save file, DMD mode, SS rank clear. 2. All life upgrades must be obtained. (Harder than it sounds! ^^) 3. No Devil Trigger or DT explosion. (Unless absolutely required) About this mission: I love full-clear mission 18. It is so satisfying! Managed to shave off over a minute from the last run despite having no DT and doing Secret Mission 12 (which is a joke btw, very easy)! I refined the strat for chessboard, agni&rudra and levathanian to make them faster & more stylish (a bit less consistent though). I got hit by Nevan's "you can't escape" attack, that doesn't count as damage. I considered re-doing the mission because of this, but the rest was really good and fast, so i decided to keep this attempt :)
