speed =/= skill

im pretty fast and get most scores because of being fast, but I don't consider myself a good player at all.
oh and I'm right handed. I can stream faster on mouse, but it's too hard for me too keep control if it gets too fast. I can go to 250~ bpm max with left hand.

Pretty much this.

I have to use my left hand & kb for fast streams (200+) simply because I can't control my mouse, even though I can probably stream faster with my right hand

I'm left handed~
I can stream like 320bpm with left on good days, 280 normally, 240bpm on longer streams
With right hand I streamed at 300bpm sometimes.. normally I stream like 240bpm and 220bpm on longer streams

Really, streaming isn't that hard o-o
ps.: keyboard

Let's see a FREEDOM DiVE replay from you; it's 222.22bpm and therefore shouldn't be a problem.

same lol

Right handed and can sometimes with warm up do longer 170 bpm streams with left hand. For shorter ones it's propably around 180-190 bpm.

I am the slowest 100lvl player I bet

^same here :3, my limit is at 190-200 (short streams)
Now my right hand is faster than my left hand (maybe because too much playing)

Yeah my new mouse is too big to claw so I'm starting to use palm, it's a lot smoother but still pretty hard to control when streaming fast

Kriers is right that the palm grip makes it easier to stream full mouse, in my opinion, since I know that I couldn't stream half as well with click/x if I didn't lean toward palm grip myself. The extra stability from it is what makes the difference when your fingers are moving quickly like that and can't be expected to control the mouse without help.

I think that play style makes all the difference in streaming speed. I see so many discussions from keyboard players about streaming, but personally I never thought streaming was hard with click/x. In fact, I'd say it's the easiest thing for me to do, and I never met a stream at any speed that I didn't feel I could take on, given maybe a little practice. I have a wayyyyy harder time keeping up with fast singles and complex switching motions on some maps and on most DTs above 120 BPM.

The concept of right handed vs left handed making it harder to stream is interesting, because different hemispheres take dominance over different hands, but my play experience is based in using both hands when I stream, so what I've learned probably isn't sufficient to allow me to comment beyond saying that I could see how you might experience left or right handed play differently depending on your brain dominance, because I seem to remember that one side tends to take in visual and tactile information and ultimately relay it back to the other side. I'm not sure if this changes with hand dominance, but it might be the case that there's a certain delay in information transfer for people who have one side dominant vs the other. That's just what I seem to remember reading about somewhere, I wouldn't call it real evidence.

I'm right handed and I can't go nearly as fast as other people, can't fc rog-unlimitation for example

My endurance is pretty good though.

yeah, i can prove you wrong. i'm left-handed and i can't stream even @ 180 :<

first of all nobody said anything about being able to SS dragonforce
and second, just because you can stream fast does not mean you are good at osu! overall. you can suck at accuracy or jump or whatever, or just be horrible overall but have incredibly fast fingers.
