Pace Masterpiece Layout
Steel Vengeance should be perfect. It has unreal height, speed and length for an RMC Ibox coaster. And honestly, I would say that it IS perfect. However, the one thing that holds Steel Vengeance from ascending my top 5 is the layout. Hear me out. I slightly prefer Wildcat's Revenge to Steel Vengeance. Wildcat has not the speed, height or length of Steel Vengeance, but it has the superior pacing and layout in my opinion. Steel Vengeance has breaks in the pacing and the layout tends to be repetitive, whereas Wildcat's Revenge features a layout full of unique elements and a variety of forces. That being said, this is a minor complaint that is only relevant because the coasters in my top 10 are so close in quality. Steel Vengeance still has some of the best elements ever built. The tophat and the outerbank especially stand out for me. Every single bunny hill from start to finish is spectacular. I love the inversions, I love the headchoppers, I love the drop, there's nothing I don't love about Steel Vengeance. Besides the wait time.

Airtimes First Drop Intensity
Project 305 is a barrage of intensity, ejector airtime, and snappy laterals. My absolute favorite part of this ride and one of my favorite elements of all time is the snappy speed hill after the camelback. I love this ride SO MUCH! It ranks within my top 5 easily. Every hill has amazing airtime, every s-bend is a joy, and every turn tries to knock you out cold! You'll never feel faster than when you are darting around near the ground at 90 miles per hour. My only complaint is the harsh trim 2/3rds of the way through the layout.

Airtimes Comfort Duration Reliability
Massive intense inversions with the world's most comfortable trains? Yes, please. S&S nailed this prototype hyper coaster, and ever since I rode opening week in 2019, it has been my favorite coaster. No RMC or Intamin can dethrone this towering, multi-looping monstrosity for me. Every single trait that can make a coaster great is featured on Steel Curtain. The sense of height and speed is greater than any other coaster I've experienced. The trains are, in my opinion, the best trains on any coaster. Steel Curtain has multiple moments of fantastic airtime, including one of the greatest camelbacks I've ever experienced. The inversions are either positive G heavy or extremely whippy. Steel Curtain is a long ride, but the pacing never lets up. Steel Curtain is flawless in my eyes. Joe Draves is a goddamn genius and I'm so happy that he is now the man in charge of designing layouts for RMC. Hopefully S&S can fix Steel Curtain's atrocious reliable issues. I honestly don't know how it's possible to design a ride this flawed in the age of computer aided design.

Airtimes First Drop Fun
Maverick is my favorite coaster at Cedar Point. All the elements are fantastic, but it's the non-stop pacing of the entire ride that really makes it so incredible. This is about as perfect as a coaster gets.

Theming Nice surprise! Comfort Inversions Pointless
A very special yet kind of incomplete rollercoaster. The track is a bit rough, yet nothing compared to an an SLC's track. Overall, the ride's layout is nice but without any inversion it feels pretty pointless. If this ride had an inversion and was a bit smoother it would probably be even better than Juvelen.

Nice surprise!
This was a pleasant surprise that rides more like a dark ride than a rollercoaster. I liked it!
