HipoSmokeWeed was the first major contender to take the title of the verifier of Subsuming Vortex, as he had been making progress long before Cursed even started verifying the level. Keep in mind that he was playing on the first version of the level. On 6 November 2022, HipoSmokeWeed set a 45% world record, achieving it with a fairly low attempt count.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p59lC61HnRo</ref> His goal was to keep grinding the level, but he kept failing at 45% and 44%, and gave up on trying. According to him, an unbeatable world record on Subsuming Vortex would be 49%, the level was very possible, and that 46% on the level might be harder than 53% on [[Sakupen Circles (Diamond)|Sakupen Circles]]. Also, for him, the 46-66% section was much harder than any other part in the level. | |||
On 12 November 2022, | On 12 November 2022, HipoSmokeWeed uploaded his second and final progress video for Subsuming Vortex, in which he achieved a 66-100% run.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNKg3-0LpME</ref> After this run, he said he would drop the level; however, he was very proud of his accomplishments, praising the wave parts in the level for how satisfying it was to play them. | ||
