'''Cursed''' is an English player. During 2022, he was considered one of the most consistent players in the game.

Cursed has completed several of the former hardest levels on the [[Demonlist (Pointercrate)|Demonlist]], such as [[Slaughterhouse]], [[Sakupen Circles (Diamond)|Sakupen Circles]], [[Firework]], [[Tunnel of Despair]], [[Acheron]], and the verification of [[Abyss of Darkness]].

On 10 April 2023, Cursed completed [[VSC]] (the hardest challenge level at the time). He has also verified many difficult challenges, such as Apotheosis, Determination Dance, and I Cry, on top of beating other challenges such as Falling Illusion, SADOMASOCHISM, 3SH in Hell, Murder Mitten, Viridescent, cooks, Lost Sense, Toxic Blades, and Im Deaf (the last mentioned featuring the wave from 66-71% in Sakupen Circles four times in a row).

On 10 November 2025, Cursed verified Renn241's redecoration of the former Top 1 Impossible Levels List (ILL) level [[Subsuming Vortex]] after over 85,000 attempts.<ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eYG1ogJpIQ</ref> He uploaded it on his own account, and it was rated on 16 November 2025.

Cursed belongs to a group of skilled [[Geometry Dash]] players, dubbed TCD after [[Trick]], Conix, and [[Denni]]. The group also includes Diamond and [[Doggie]].

==History==
===Beginnings===
Cursed's first YouTube account was initially owned by keshi. keshi then gave the channel to Cursed. An argument between the two soon emerged, leading keshi to take the channel down.

On 10 November 2020, Cursed uploaded a series of his old Extreme Demon- (some now Insane Demons) completions to a new channel, orderly [[Cataclysm]],<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khQHcxrOQJM</ref> [[ICE Carbon Diablo X]],<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz2KVIQibOA</ref> Spectral Tentation<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sdf0EUpf3cE</ref> and the two first levels in the Ocular Miracle trilogy, (Reverie and Faith).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CObMPinSKbY</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsMaEE1FgfI</ref> The next day, he uploaded completions of reverence,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7jxoal78vU</ref> Annihilation Nation,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykP1crOHvyc</ref> and [[Bloodbath]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-svcTTm0X1o</ref>

After this, Cursed began uploading completions of challenges; his first was on 13 November 2020, when he completed Denouement.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvHbXm-9iJg</ref>

Cursed uploaded several more videos of his old level completions on 13 November 2020, the three most notable being ZAPHKIEL,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmtHcjzfx2c</ref> Catabath<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2U9VRIo9b0</ref> (unrated Extreme Demon combining old Cataclysm and Bloodbath into one level) and Hyper Paradox.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbRWNwKTYN8</ref>

===Sakupen Circles===
Cursed's first progress video on Sakupen Circles was uploaded on 27 December 2020, in which he completed a run of 66-100%.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsTUR3GM0XQ</ref> His second came on 22 May 2021, in which he achieved 56%, a world record at the time.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVo-qc71jFo</ref>

Cursed was the former verifier for Sakupen Circles, where he achieved a best of 70% and a run of 36-100%. He eventually dropped the verification and handed it over to Diamond, who verified it on 30 December 2021. After Diamond verified the level, Cursed returned to it to try beating it, which he did on 6 January 2022, in 195,627 attempts, becoming the first victor of the level.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKbsTIFSKP4</ref>

After being banned on the Demonlist for a while due to hacking levels, Cursed was unbanned on 31 January 2022.

===Abyss of Darkness===
On 26 March 2022, Cursed achieved a record of 95% on Abyss of Darkness,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beYyAwjH624</ref> tying with Trick for the level's second-best achievement at the time, behind that of Dils Thik, who had achieved 98%.

Following an intense race with Trick, Cursed verified Exen's Extreme Demon mega-collaboration Abyss of Darkness on 3 April 2022, after 54,315 attempts,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejJkpqcMMCY</ref> before which Trick had achieved a best of 95% on the level.

===Post-Abyss of Darkness===
On 16 April 2022, Cursed beat what was, at the time, the Top 1 level on the Demonlist, Slaughterhouse,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmyCLv1gqyo</ref> after having crashed at 95% earlier that day. Five days after that, he beat Firework.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pblatN58rrs</ref>

Cursed was attempting to verify a rebuffed and rebalanced version of [[Silent Circles (Zynvire)|Zynvire's remake of Silent Circles]] after the level was controversially nerfed down to Top 40-difficulty on the Demonlist, according to the verifier of the nerfed version, Xanii. This version was set to be Top 1-5-difficulty. He achieved 48% on the level on 29 April 2022.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKXNYxqWPnA</ref>

Cursed was the verifier of the Top 1-difficulty level Eternal Night, on which he has currently achieved runs of 76-100% and 63-95% on his own buffed version on 18–19 June 2022. Cursed's version is also harder than swiborg's, the former verifier. Cursed has stated that it will be his final hardest achievement in the game, and he will make the level as difficult as possible. Since then, he has been replaced by swiborg as the verifier.

On 23 July 2022, Cursed supposedly became the first victor of the official nerfed version of [[Silent clubstep]], believing it to be #5 in difficulty on the Demonlist.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQDZ6wFVY_g</ref> However, he discovered that he had accidentally toggled the Hitbox Multiplier hack in MegaHack to 0.9x during the attempt of this supposed completion, so he unlisted the video. Afterwards, he was banned from Pointercrate.

On 16 August 2022, Cursed rebeat Sakupen Circles in Full Detail, meaning he has beaten the level twice, once with Low Detail and once with Full Detail. He verified [[icedcave|icedcave's]] Top-50-difficulty level [[SUPERHATEMEWORLD]] on 30 September 2022.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhmgZYCJ29M</ref> On 19 October 2022, he stated interest in verifying APTeam's redecorated version of the old impossible level Exasperation.

Cursed beat [[LIMBO]] on 23 December 2022,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBG3Dk2I3gA</ref> being his first Top 10 completion since [[Hard Machine]].

Later, on 10 February 2023, Cursed became the first victor of UNKNOWN.<ref name="UNKNOWN">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuhtoGO5Q2Q</ref> On 11 April 2023, he beat VSC as his new hardest challenge, becoming the sixth victor.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq0g-0-vI7k</ref>

Cursed got unbanned from Pointercrate on 24 April 2023, following the Silent clubstep incident.

On 8 June 2023, Cursed uploaded a video of his 45-100% run on Unnerfed Slaughterhouse,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMxvYIcKj3A</ref> and the next day, he got 79% on the level.<ref name="Unnerfed Slaughterhouse">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jap7gw0zvDo</ref> Ten days later, Cursed verified Exens Limit, an unrated Top 10 Demon at the time.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZksoQVGmKw</ref> On 30 December 2024, he re-verified Cobwebs for a level update.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgZ85rCaEGY</ref>

On 26 September 2023, Cursed got a 60-100% run on [[Silent Acropolis (Danmaster007)|Silent Acropolis]], reaching the previous world record.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZkdI-sVFao</ref> On 29 September 2023, he got 58-100% on the level's decorated version.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfDdTldcKqY</ref> On 9 October 2023, he got 31% on unnerfed [[Silent Circles (Cyrillic)|Silent Circles]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNkS5OgIAiA</ref>

On 29 December 2023, Cursed became the eighth victor of Amalgam after 1,499 attempts.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls2b5v4Z8hA</ref> On 5 January 2024, he became the second victor of [[KOCMOC]] after 27,630 attempts.<ref name="KOCMOC">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUOpLok85SU</ref> On 14 October 2024, he beat Natural Disaster after 6,074 attempts.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTWgGG-wpLc</ref> On 11 January 2025, he beat Tunnel of Despair after 29,480 attempts.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwFaAV6JaHQ</ref> On 22 February 2025, he achieved a run of 35-100% on [[Avernus]], and 41%.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwA2l_cfnAQ</ref> On 11 April 2025, he became the first legitimate victor of Acheron in the United Kingdom after ~60,000 attempts, making it his new hardest.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjXVpA_46i0</ref> On 28 May 2025, he achieved 72% on Silent clubstep.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4U-5ndqNV4</ref> On 30 September 2025, Cursed achieved 19-65% on [[Nullscapes]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/shorts/eIOFnNLs30Y</ref>

On 7 April 2025, Cursed started live-streaming the verification of Subsuming Vortex. On 18 April 2025, he got a 35-96% run on the level.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guXZ4nuG8gI</ref> On 15 July 2025, Cursed got a 96% fail.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvE_1H_ZNwU</ref> On 10 November 2025, he verified it after over 85,000 attempts.<ref name=":0" />

After Subsuming Vortex, Cursed went on a streak of attempting various Extreme Demons during his live-streams, including [[Thinking Space II]], [[BOOBAWAMBA]], [[Through The Gates]], ORDINARY, Sevvend Clubstep, and ROCKBOTTOM.

On 4 January 2026, Cursed did a 27-51% on Silent Circles.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Uicqj9YRTA</ref>

Then, on 26 May 2026, he published a video in which he completed BOOBAWAMBA in two runs—38% and 37-100%, in a little under 15,000 attempts.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR2CbMVH4wk</ref>

During one of Trick's streams at the TCD house, Cursed beat [[Through The Gates]] right beside him on 9 July 2026.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KIpEEGCIqU</ref> On 15 July, he beat Sevvend Clubstep on Full Detail Mode,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf9S4EFHI-Q</ref> and the day after, ROCKBOTTOM.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1vmqTd7KCE</ref>

==Conflicts==
In late 2019, keshi would expose Cursed for hacking [[Bloodlust]], [[Silent Club]], and [[Arctic Lights]]. He was then banned from Pointercrate but was later unbanned on 31 January 2022.

On 23 July 2022, Cursed supposedly became the first victor of Silent clubstep after 'nearly dying at 34% and 74%'. About a week later, Cursed announced he had unintentionally hacked the completion by accidentally activating a Hitbox Multiplier hack. However, since there was no evidence to indicate whether this was true, he would receive an 18-month ban from Pointercrate. He then stated he would not be playing for 18 months anyway. Therefore, he made the ban permanent. He also stated he would play on the 'Russian Demonlist'. However, on 19 October 2022, someone made an anti-exposure video of him. On 24 April 2023, he was unbanned. In light of [[spaceuk|spaceuk's]] hacking, Cursed is now ranked as the best British player.
