Regarding alternate strumming, I hate the idea of it. For example, I can play the bass in Reptilia on hard and almost FC it with just downstrumming. Will I eventually have to adapt to alternate strumming anyway as I progress on hard?

well you have to understand that the difficulty in hard and expert is based on 3 different things and different songs emphasize these things: speed of strumming (alt strumming, knights of cydonia), speed of note changes i.e. ho/po (cult of personality), and chord changes (cherub rock etc). Some songs on hard are probably not possible without alt strumming.

I'm getting so close on Tier 7, I just need to luckbox my way into it.

I'm good at alt-strumming the Knights of Cydonia parts though.

Steve Vai's Halo theme is out now as DLC. Not the hardest song ever but pretty fun.

I have to echo Grue, I dont think you can do it without learning to alt-strum. I've seen people on other boards claim it isnt needed, but I think for most of use alt-strumming is necessary. Its really not that hard to get used to and the more I play the more I find myself alt strumming.
