The Attack Of The Dead Men

Amazing beatmap! Would love to see a leaderboard for this sometime soon. Great work!

one of the greatest song of all time

Great map for a great song!

Don't listen to me, I'm just talking wrong things

Applies to Beginner and Easy Only
You should probably have some LNs in 02:29:595 - 02:46:146. Some notes last way too long and feels underwhelming to be represented by a note. Even though they are everywhere throughout the section, here are some that sticks out when playing:

02:30:888 02:32:957 02:35:026 02:41:750 02:43:302
Whether or not if you want to add more however is up to you.

Applies to Easy and Normal Only
If you have notes inside (doesn't count if it starts at the beginning or added at the release of the LN) It should be placed on the opposing hand where the LN is. This makes it much more comfortable and efficent for players at these skill level.
For Easy this usually should be applied at any LN that is 2/1 or smaller, and for Normal it should be applied at any LN that is 1/2 or smaller.

Applies in Easy at 00:44:594 00:45:629 01:24:939 01:33:215
Applies in Normal at 00:42:913

Nothing wrong with current but this is to make patterns easier on the players of the skill level

Applies to Easy and Normal Only
00:25:456 01:13:042 - These two timestamps contradict each other despite being the exact same, are you mapping the guitar or the kicks, and apply that to both timestamps to both difficulties.

Also for the Normal I suggest removing the LN anyways because the two difficulties above it only have 1/1 kicks, no LN.

Applies to Hard and Die Again
00:58:430 - This should be a single note, it doesn't represent any percussion and the vocals that come from this are very minor and it's worth emphasizing since you can barely hear it over regular speed.

Applies at 01:06:706 01:46:017 01:54:293 03:14:982 03:23:258 03:31:534 03:39:810

Applies to Hard and Die Again

00:45:111 (45111|0) - You can shorten this at 00:45:629 so that you can add a double for the finish sound at 00:46:146.
You do this at 01:32:697

🔴AUDIO
**APPLY LAST**

Audio is bloated. Clips at 16kHz which translates to 128kbps.

🔴TIMING
BPMs are fine for the most part, the BPM line at 00:55:485 is unneccesary, you can just replace it with a x2 scroll multiplier and then add another one for x1 at 00:56:519 (Applies at 01:43:072 & 03:11:002)

Last BPM line is unnecesary also due to two reasons:

• There is no drums to base off the slowness of the BPM.
• You normalized it to 116 BPM after.

Everything is normalized to 58 BPM at 01:38:416 in Die Again.
Everything is normalized to 81.2 BPM at 01:38:416 in Hard.
Everything is normalized to 92.8 BPM at 01:38:416 in Advanced. Also you forgot to omit barlines in this difficulty.

Normalization for Advanced and Hard is fine under RC

Will get to offset after new audio has been implemented.

🟢HITSOUNDS
Seems to have no unrankable delay, no unused files, consistent in all difficulties, looks good.

🟢BACKGROUND/VIDEO
Background - 1920 x 1080, under 2.5MB and is a .jpg file, looks good.
Video - Has no audio, synced pretty well, encoded to H.264, and is consistent across all difficulties, looks good.

🟡OD/HP
Beginner - 6 / 6
Easy - 6.5 / 6.5
Normal - 7 / 7
Advanced - 7.5 / 7.5
Hard - 8 / 8
Die Again - 8 / 8

I would suggest 8.2 OD / 8.2 HP for Die Again. Since Hard and Die Again are pretty similar but one is harder I think it's fine to give a slight boost to top difficulty, just an increase of 0.2 should be fine.

🟡MISC
Kiais are optional but you could add a kiai at 02:21:347 - 02:29:623 or somewhere different if wanted.

02:04:795 Looks like any note that should be here (guitar + drums) disappeared across all the diffs

Hahaha pretty sure some people will hate the top diff but I like the oldschool gimmicks!

nice mapset

01:38:416 - This song used a stable metronome while recording obviously, no need to change bpm for the drummer's miss. Just snap these irregular drum ms-by-ms.
In principle you even don't need to reduce the bpm by half in slow parts, because the length of measure is unified. (e.g. please notice 00:48:242 - 00:52:380 - , they should be the boundary of measure.) 116 BPM with 4/4 meter is fine for the whole song.
