I say it's pure luck because
-no disconnects for all 200 floors, this can be the most deflating thing as it is usually outside your control if happens
-room types, get exit in treasure room 5x in row on floors 170+ kiss your time or pomanders goodbye
-Pomander drops, they are random what ones chest give you and whether they are mimics or not
-mob distribution, starting room has 3 entrances 4 chimeras incoming, hope to whatever Kami will listen that the one you pull does dragon 1st and the others don't see you
-trap distribution, this can be mitigated by following the walls but sometimes they are just in the way
-Debuffs, these are completely random what ones you get and some are more ideal than others, and there can be up to 3 of them.


There is a good amount of skill involved as you need to know rotation, what mobs are ideal to deal with, range of attacks, attacks that can be stunned/silenced etc, but at end of day it is pure luck that will determine whether you get to floor 200 solo without good enough luck you will fail.
