Good… Please be aware to not get confused or assume anything is wrong in this guide I heavily encourage reading the following clarifications for how things are rated, assessed, and put through rigorous amounts of work to make it optimal for viewing. Thank you for your time!

10							This resource was made by Lizzy, with information verified by regulars in the Official Neural Cloud Discord Server. Everything in this resource should be relevant for Critical Cascade and dolls up to that point. It may or may not be subject to updates, but this kind of resource is unlikely to see any major revamps, and just get expanded when new Matrix stuff releases. Any updates that Lizzy plans to make for this resource will only be for new events that make major changes to Matrix, meaning supposedly some Clotho Halloween event? Maybe? At the time of writing this, Lizzy has her Ultra Shortened Resource, L.U.G. Updates from Nora to Turing, three DnD campaigns to write, setting up her past-time as a paid DM, a way to support her monetarily, as well as a new player resource. Any small changes or questions you can message her directly on Discord by joining the Official Neural Cloud Discord server and DMing her. Her username is amysteriousmousegirl.

19			Tier Lists		Resource Recent Updates/Tweaks (changes that can't fit are removed from here): 8/16: The function that deals damage to all enemies every 5 seconds based off your highest doll's hashrate is actually nice for target softening. Which, while isn't a fantastic thing to be good at, is nice in its own right. 8/18: Added a note for the Coin Exploit (on the associate Protocol) This drastically reduces the difficulty of boss fights.
