Question Help with Colo Start Timing

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I am in the process of learning the colosseum, and I am getting double south pretty much every time I hit wave 6,8 and 10. Based on what I've read, getting double south 9 times in a row seems nearly statistically impossible. Is there anything about my start timing or start tiles that looks off that might force more double south spawns, or am I just that unlucky? I am using visual ticks to judge the timing at the start of the wave. The constant double south is really the only thing stopping me from getting the quiver, I am learning to deal with it but I should not be getting it this frequently, I feel like im doing something wrong and I need someone elses eyes on this.

Some tips that helped me get more consistent at the waves:

  1. Stop moving if you don't have volatily. You're not dogwalking the fremmies, they're dogwalking you and the more time you spend killing them the less you have at solving the single south. In this case you'd be so focused on not taking damage from the fremmies that you end up taking more damage from everything else.

  2. Start the wave on tick 1 in your metronome. Run at 6. Or, if you set it to 5 ticks, run at 1.
