The several blat that follow the first one are quite complex, and after the relatively easygoing Aggada and Hashkofa that permeates most of Brachos can come as a shock. I would suggest evaluating whether you want to stick with the speed of Daf Yomi, or if you want to compromise the speed for a few days in favor of understanding those blat. If the latter, you would probably do yourself a favor to hook up with a tutor to help you through them. I do recommend working from the Artscroll volume because their explanations are very thorough. You are going to sweat a lot to get through it, but you will be very satisfied for having done so.
