awesomely

In breathtaking fashion

Awesomely means in an awesome manner—impressively, remarkably, or to a great degree.

The word follows awesome's shift from describing things that inspire awe to a general intensifier meaning excellent or cool: The band played awesomely, an awesomely bad movie.

It works both as genuine praise and ironic emphasis.
