well basically you practice it over and over until your brain does it sort of "automatically". It shouldn't feel like you're struggling, if you do, it means you need to practice it some more at slower speeds. It is crucial that you practice new techniques and licks very slow first, so your brain can understand all the subtle movements that couldn't possibly be memorized if you only play it fast. Once you get the "muscle memory", you can start increasing the speed gradually. Hope that helps!

complexity has to be built based on your situation meaning get used to going horizontal and vertical between 2 notes then 3 notes then 4 and so on and so on now in regards to speed?

the tabs in the video description include the solo as well, plus I made a tutorial video for this song (it's posted as a video response and also in the description). At the very end of the tutorial I break down the solo into 5 sections and play them at normal and slow speed, maybe that can help you out! :)

@makotomi5252 if you mean for the rhythm guitars I don't use any delay and just a tiiiiiny little reverb, I prefer the rhythms to sound dry. For the lead guitars I use delay and reverb, but not much, about 25% of each. As for the specific effects, I use the ones in PODFarm, the delay I use is called "Digital Delay" (a simple delay, nothing fancy) and the reverb is called "Cavernous" :)

@4658dan thanks! I use Toontrack's EZDrummer for the drum sounds. I write all the midi instruments on Cubase 5. And yes most of the time I create all of it from scratch, though in a few videos I did use some midi files found on the internet to work with. I gotta say I prefer the results when I work from scratch, but that is just my personal experience :)
