1) Wuhua

Without a doubt one of the powerhouse of Malaysia, without him, alot of the recent things in the Malaysian community is proud of wouldn't be possible. Consistently performing everyday, You cannot login a day without seeing him playing/practicing, a perfect display of what happens when talent meets effort. Gratz on 12k pp!

2) CantBeTaymed

Back when he was still called Taygames, i was somehow triggered seeing him being so good, and now, he's one of those guys that i can only see with respect. PS: I didnt favor him because his name is/has a pun.... i think <_<

3) ShaneLiang

God oh god oh god oh god, this son of a god, being of a saint, guy that does things so inshanely, yet his positivity remains unwavered.

4) Jeffrey

Despite being a legendary meme, he has shown that he is more than just a meme, if he's not tournament material, idk what is. Will be very interesting to see his growth in year 2019.

5) ClawViper

Perhaps one of the most respected player in the entire osu community. Many probably brushes him off as an ancient legend, but it takes a seasoned stalke- i mean spectator to see that he is 1 of the 4 Wonders of Malaysia that's still at least semi-active and performing. You just have to look at tournament maps, and you'll have at least 70-85% chance of seeing his name in the rankings.

6) ZheVulture

Madlad. Nuff said.

7) Rumia-

Although busy with work currently, but in the past few months of 2018, his "EZ" mod plays alone is enough to shock the world that he is 'EZ'ly one of the players worthy of being in my top 10 list. Besides, also produces good quality maps, most noticeable as his ranked S.A.T.O.R.A.R.E. . I also believe that mappers often have better knowledge on what map patterns play out, hence when it comes to weird patterns in maps, this guy can clear it after seeing the map once.

8) King Hong

When it comes to HD plays, it's always either Ffstar, Wuhua or King Hong. Ffstar was a bit inactive this year for me to put him in the list, and that makes King Hong the next best HD player i've known that's not named "Wuhua". Have you seen this guy play HD!? HE IS AMAZING! Also a mapper, although most of his maps might not be alot of players' taste, but i still love his maps! The azure wonderland map by rabi ribi was nice for me c:

9) NOOB1200

This guy has the potential to be the 2nd Racecar of Malaysia, given time and effort, he may emerge as better than the 1st generation Racecar, or slightly trail behind the original. Although still diamond in the rough when it comes to maps other than aim, high bpm and jump, but he is the kind of person that VUN back down from a challenge. Good Luck Vun!

And here we are, the last spot of #10, who will it be? Find out in the next episode of Dragonball Os- jk. Here he/she is.

10) Yumesaki-Hikari

Not a popular favorite by most players today, but his/her comebacks during OMT 2018 demonstrated that he/she just needs a bit of nudging, and everything will go his/her way. His/her preferences may be questionable to most, just like my choice on picking him/her, but trust me, this person has it in him/her.


Honorable mentions that would've made into the list but just slightly off from this top 10 list due to various factors:

-Agagak (HE NEEDS 1 GOD DAMN PP TO BE IN 6300!!! HAHAHAHA otherwise he would've taken yume or noob1200's spot)
-DaNoobSlayar (Has the potential, can be under confident at times, once stabilizes, 2019 could be his year)
-Vexine (If god had a helper, saint, angel, or any kind being, it's definitely this guy. The main support of why everything is still running smoothly on many things in the Malaysian Osu Community, definitely has the skills to keep up and be one of the dominant forces in 2019. May good karma come his way)
-Desumond
-Wong9ne

All right

perform well in tourneys

Sorry can only pick 5, not too familiar with Malaysian top players.

Okay so after some considerations and suggestions brought up by TequilaWolf, in cases where there are less than 10 people being voted, the last place in that vote will always get 1 point, the highest gets points equal to the number of people voted. This is to avoid giving the lower ranked players too much of a point advantage when there are less than 10 people voted. New rules added.

okay

To make it easier for Jeffrey , and other people :3 i'll rank it in order , sowwy :-

1st - King Hong


i really admire players who just plays varieties of maps and King Hong is one of them , highlighted his name in countless country rankings and setting up amazing consistent maps with 6 mins above , King Hong really inspired me to just aim for every map's difficulty to aim for the top

2nd - ffstar

probably one in a million , ffstar is one of the only players in the country to play mouse only , also an amazing all rounder in every possible mapset , ffstar also has showed his amazing maps making it into on of the mappools in last year's OMT

3rd - TequilaWolf

being an amazing singer , and also having an amazing skillsets , tjen really gets a vote from making me amazed with his EZ plays , i still rmb when both Tequila and Rumia- just casually reading EZ mod during a warmup phase in OMT

4th - zisamER

one of the oldest players actively playing in the country , and also owning a natural drinking water company , sprtizER , i mean zisam is really awe inspiring players to give me motivation to play old maps due to his countless scores in the country ranking

5th - Rumia-

a well deserved vote from him for his major contribution in mapping back in the days , rumia- has ranked amazing songs for the community and have made a name for himself , he is also well known for his amazing skillset in EZ

6th - Vexine

with frequents active and plays , Vexine still grasp the glorious #1 for the Score Ranking in the country , his scores and plays on unusual niche maps makes him deserves a vote , Vexine also is the reason why I will have the determination to one day surpass his 50billion ranked score.


7th - Desumond

one of the top HD players in the country , Desumond was well known for his amazing consistent plays on intense long maps with HD , as a HD player myself , Desumond reallys deserves a vote

8th - Tzero

0 really made name for himself , for his all rounder skillset , his countless country ranking scores really made a name for himself , to me , 0 is really an improving prodigy for our country to make a name in the community

9th - Mak Kau Hijau

one of the DT players having an increase of skillset in the mod , MKH is best known for his high BPM ar9 DT plays , he is really one of the DT players i really enjoy seeing setting good DT plays , MKH also contributes countless amazing maps in the mapping community

10th - Bastard

anak haram (sorry im out of players to vote for the election)

ok here's my list, but it's hard for me to say about those players >_<
here goes nothing

1. wuhua
A budget FlyingTuna from the past. Despite that he's using a membrane keyboard and a cheapo mouse like my old self when I started osu, he's still a god by today's standard. ok gotta send him my mech keyboard Kappa

2. ShaneLiang
a beast tournament player, I think he deserves #2
too hard to explain a lot due to my crapped brain lol

3. Tzero
also a beast tournament player, dunno what to say

4. ZheVulture
stream god who sniped my HD score on eiji kuinbii poggu

5. TequilaWolf
Despite he never submitted a score often, he's an EZ legend. *cough* Malaysian -GN, I should say? Or Malaysian 404ANF?

6. King Hong
He plays Hidden mod often like me, but despite he uses a membrane keyboard like my old self, his consistency is better than mine xD

7. Mak Kau Hijau
Malaysian Rafis kek (also my mom is not roHULK lol oh wait she's mad like rohulk before ecks dee)
also i love how kroytz mispronounced malay words like usual malays :kappax:

8. Desumond
Also a Hidden mod player-ok I shouldn't put on "like me" twice lol

9. Rumia-
a good o' HR player turned into -GN (also a good mapper of my jam, sunset tea cup)

10. ffstar
I have zero idea what to say, he's the one of the mouse only players in my country. What a god.

Quick vote.
For me it has become extremely difficult to judge how good EZ plays are, so I can't give a proper valuation on that - it has merely become one of the factors that I take into account in how all-rounded a player is. Sorry to TequilaWolf and Rumia- for maybe not giving them the respect they deserve.


1. wuhua - By far the best.

2. ShaneLiang - By far the second best.

3. ZheVulture - I might be overrating him here but 3-6 was honestly a toss-up and I would have felt that I was overrating whoever I placed 3. What gives him the edge in my opinion over the rest is the fact that he is a true all-rounder (except aim) in everything he plays. Any mod, any AR, any BPM, he has some great plays. Due to his all-roundedness, he placed 1st in the OWC trials and rightfully so.

4. NOOB1200 - Perma HD player. High skill cap, with top plays and some passes really impressing me.

5. Tzero - Insanely good accuracy on technical and reading heavy maps, OMT was definitely one of the highlight performances for him.

6. Desumond - Feels like dude doesn't get the respect he deserves - he is one of the few players in Malaysia that consistently sets 400+
pp scores allowing him to hit 8k and has some really good technical scores with HD.

7. CantBeTaymed - Finally broke the barrier this year with a host of aim scores, allowing him to hit 8k pp. Also seems to have overcome his fear of streaming with some pretty decent accuracy on stream maps towards the end of the year.

8. ALtist - Another player who has stood out before his inactivity throughout the year with outstanding aim, only held back by his subpar accuracy.

9. haruchi - Despite bouts of inactivity, he has shown himself to be another high skillcap player who can play various things at a high level.

10. Jeffrey - Hard work pays off and has consistently set good plays on HR and NoMod

Didn't list some people cuz inactive maybe?
You know who you are :>

1.haruchi

Some players are not in the list, cause they are either too inactive or other reasons.

1. wuhua
Rampax overrated (jk), xsrsbsns outdated, long have we awaited, wuhua activated.

2. ShaneLiang
Can't wait to see him derust.

3. haruchi
His ability to play and perform on most things is top tier, only limited by his ability to pump blood a bit too quickly.

4. Rampax
Would have placed him above Shane if he is more active, but his versatility is rivaled only by the best. Sadly, may never see him get motivated enough to rise up again.

5. ZheVulture
Hacker. God I'm afraid of the day he acquires aim.

6. Tzero
Out of everyone's radar the previous year, he came in like a storm at the beginning of the year and only stopped because of SPM. Looking forward to his growth from now after his promise to farm thousands of pp within days.

7. NOOB1200
Pretty unknown player previously too, but has shown on many occasions that he has the ability to play some pretty crazy maps. Though he has fallen off in activity towards the end of the year.

8. Desumond
Overtaking ClawViper in country rankings, he has shown that he has the potential to go far when it comes to farming, but looking at country leaderboards, he has tons of amazing scores that are unnoticed. Falling under many people's radar probably due to him not being active outside his own discord server and only scores shown are the typical pp maps.

9. Jeffrey
Major improvements over the past year. His HR skills has actually become a threat to even the top of the country.

10. TequilaWolf
down here cause he doesn't submit scores.


Honorable Mentions - not for known players

MyScoreSucks - Tons of unnoticed scores, hope he continue to grow as a player and storms into the scene like Tzero
WOOTT - I honestly dunno, just appeared out of nowhere.

this year is probably the hardest for me to vote because everyone suddenly become so good?? :miyanopride:
1.污话
lolicon

2.ShaneLiang
- his scores are very underrated and almost unnoticed but he make sick plays from time to time

3.ZheVulture
- ??? dont know what to say he's so good i have no word. high bpm streamer and also a good tournament player but always saying himself noob because thats the nature of osu player

4. Tzero
- yea this guy is gg , already learning how to dominate people in tourney , high skillset , not enough playtime

5.TequilaWolf
- good god :miyano:

6.Desumond
- Spitting out good scores like nothing this year , his skill ceiling has been broken , very g player

7.CantBeTaymed
- another guy whos also broke his skill ceiling , very good player , pretty underrated i would say but maybe its just me because im not always there to notice his scores ;;

8.NOOB1200
- In out In out but never forget his aim is something else , shaneliang tier if consistent

9.Jeffrey
- Consistent HR player showed very good improvement this year , good at hd too at some point, watch out this guy in tournaments :Jeff:

10. King Hong
somehow underrated , very good HD player with good reading and memorising skills , can play fl and also troll acc very consistently this guy is no joke , another lolicon

too lazy to do honorable mention but PurpleSatanWeed should be here on my post because i just want to type his name cuz he is gave birth of a new me

EDIT: oh shit man i have a blank post up there i forgot to edit wadever

1. wuhua - comes out of nowhere in 2017 and became the best MY player by a mile in 2018
2. ShaneLiang - used to improve really fast
3. Rampax - probably still have one of the best raw aim in MY
4. ZheVulture - didn't see much of him back in 2017 but quickly became godlike in 2018
5. haruchi - likes to spit out absurd scores since 2017
6. cantbetaymed - good aim
7. Kynexiz - really fast player
8. Tzero - very consistent player
9. Mak Kau Hijau - also pretty fast
10. Vexine - has potential in nomod

1. Wuhua - Does this even need an explanation

2. ShaneLiang - Amazing skill overall in the conventional mods: DT, HR and HD. He's even consistent enough to net him a 2nd placing in OMT|

3. Jeffrey - His rank and pp does not do his skill justice. Sure he might not be making the highest of pp plays, but his skill HR in proportion to his rank is definitely one of the most underrated.

4. Haruchi - Not very noticeable at times. Unsure if he plays offline most of the time. But whenever he sets scores he sets unique ones: usually really high mechanical skill scores.

5. NOOB1200 - Very interesting HD/HDHR player. He doesn't seem to have much consistency to keep a consistent climb but makes really high-tier scores like toumei elegy HD and My Sweet Maiden HDHR

6. Desumond - His aim with HD is pretty much my aim with NM. However, he's got a lot more potential with his full alternating play-style.

7. Rumia - Very niche player; the Malaysian -GN

8. TequilaWolf - Seems that he's permanently playing EZ now, but that means that his reading is one of if not the best in Malaysia

9. Tzero - Great consistency that allowed him to get #3 at OMT

10. Altist - Really balanced skill-set in terms of his aim and streaming. He has really great scores like Airman and Foreground Eclipse. Too bad he's gone inactive near the end of the year.

Player - cool plays

1. wuhua - Maware! Skystar + HDHR
2. ShaneLiang - Senbonzakura
3. Desumond - Noraneko Heart + HD
4. NOOB1200 - Toumei Elegy + HD

(Don't worry about it if u dun get it Xd but i am curious if any malaysian who play osu also watch twoset)

Might be weird for me to say this but im not very familiar with Malaysian top players scene, hence only 5 votes
my vote is based on the names on country leaderboards, so they are probably very skewed x.x (feel free to ignore/invalidate it if thats the case QvQ)

Voting has ended. Thanks to everyone for voting.

Gimme a few moments to double check the votes and I'll post the results.



Congratulations to these players for being voted top 10 of 2018! A PM will be sent out via discord shortly to inform you of what to do for the video.
