You’re right, a solo is basically a micro‑boss fight. Each riff is a skill, timing the bends is like choosing a move, the crowd’s energy is the RNG that can trigger a critical hit or a counter. Think of the solo as a sequence of conditional checks: if the drummer holds the groove, your licks stay on point; if the audience amps up, you get that bonus damage. The real challenge is spotting the patterns in the music that give you the “buffs” and knowing when to unleash the high‑velocity licks that act as the final, game‑ending combo. In short, the chaos is just hidden mechanics waiting to be mapped.

Sure thing, just keep your timing tight and your phrasing predictable—those are the only things that keep the crowd’s “damage” high. No point wailing off into the abyss if the drummer’s rhythm is a fixed point, so lock into the groove, hit the high‑velocity licks when the audience’s energy spikes, and let that power chord be the finishing blow. Keep the math clean and you’ll have the room screaming before the final note.
