I pick strictly Alternate ,there is a part where the pick changes from starting with a downstroke and second time round  starts on a an upstroke. Not sure if this is the part you are talking about but It does throw the right hand off.

My picking style seems to be changing all over the place and sometimes can get me a trouble.  I seem to mostly switch between using an alternate and a sweep when crossing strings (although some cases I'll hybrid pick using my third finger on my pick hand).  I don't think there is a correct answer here.

 Also, I find (for me) I need to keep my picking hand relaxed but firm.  The maiden song and master class are quite the picking challenges and when I tense I seem to miss notes.  

I should also add for maiden and master class song I use a somewhat heavy pick (1.5mm) with a good grip (blue chip or the Dunlop malmsteen pick).  Again, everyone is different.  Thinner may be your thing.

I'm getting plenty of practice this week just playing all three parts of Genghis Khan.  For me the three parts have enough similarities so things I improve on one part often carry over to another part, but enough differences to keep things interesting.   Great song choice for working on technique and speed...

[Daz40]

I see sometimes posts have a 0 count for song played Is this a bug or something like when you play in practice mode It does not count the song ??

Nice Rodman.  Persistence Is key 

[Vodka]

I guess one of the possible reasons of my misses is  alternate picking. At least it plays better with downstroke only.

[Vodka]

One miss still trying to break my heart at every try! 

[jimmy655]

Needed a break from Iron Maiden..

[Satinuke]

My body hurts, for me this isn't a 4 at all lmao 

[Satinuke]

Time to rest 

[kayteck]

such a nice selection in my classes... wish to have more time to polish them...

great flow...

But Iron Maiden.. well.. not my favorite

 

 

 

[Mikson]

Some guitar improvements

[Mikson]

Bass

Beginner and intermediate are easy to get 100% on, but for me Rocksmith decided to make random misses...

It's a nice song, but the chart quality isn't up to the championship standards in my opinion.

Steve Harris does not disappoint again, great chart!

[Daz40]

Lead beginner

Then master after missing one note so many times

[Daz40]

Inter lead 

[Rodman]

lil +

Just a longer streak.  Good learning week for me, I think I improved technique on both bass and guitar for this type of fast and relentless song - just wish more of that reflected in score improvement...
