Round 26: Wave Sliders

Image

Nominated by RandomJibberish. These are sliders in an "S" shape, where it curves in one direction then the opposite direction. They're used to be a little more interesting than a regular straight slider.

Map(s) that use this technique
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now by m980.
The Checkers - Julia ni Heartbreak by iNiS (recreated by soradg123)
BeautifulDay - Fiesta by darrihuka.

Just another generic slider shape
☆☆☆ Best mapper alive ☆☆☆

Only nice with minor vibrata or whatever.

Otherwise, it's mediocre but still acceptable and not combo-breaking.

Atleast, when they are made properly of course.

4'd. Bread & butter beatmapping.

Make sure they're perfect.

I love these, they feel nicer to play then a normal straight slider.

I like making them blanket two beats, but that's hard to do without breaking spacing rules, lol.
All lines in my mod posts are just suggestions if and only if you can give me a good reason why you didn't apply it. "No" is not a good reason.

I like them, 5
but it's just another slider shape, you could make a thread about any random slider shape. I don't regard this as a technique... :|

Awesome, especially when they fit the part of the music they're in.
Also, EBA/OTO.

I use them a lot and love them
However they can get abused, and that's no good
