1. don't bother playing maps you can't read or pass, keep playing normals/hards until you can fc them with 97%+ accuracy
2. just singletap
3. focus on rhythm, time your hits better, get better accuracy and don't button mash when you see a lot of notes in one place or someshii-.
just play more and don't worry about ranks, worry more about trying to improve
the only way to learn the mods is to play them
I'm bad but i'm not so bad to the point where I have to play normals. When i'm playing for fun I play hards / VERY VERY VERY low level insanes.
I don't see why I would single tap, either. Single tapping is un-natural to me and I have to actually force myself to do so. I've had the key overlay open when doing songs lately and i've noticed that it's normally 55/45% or better in terms of alternating, and that's just natural.
Yeah I need to work on #3, I tend to button mash when I see a long stack/stream of notes.
I saw one thread for beginners, but I feel as though that's not aimed at someone of my skill level. Not that i'm trying to be egotistical, I know I suck, but easy maps seem too easy to help me...
I will admit, though, that I was lazy. I posted the thread and then went to play Osu! in hopes of being handed advice, guess i'll do research next time instead of posting a thread asking for help. If I do make a thread asking for help, i'll make sure to cite every source that i've checked so you know i've at least put effort into researching my question before daring to ask it on the forums.
I would (further) respond to the sarcasm and argue about what I consider a "good" player as; but I feel as though that wouldn't get me anywhere and i'd be much better off playing Osu! (as most of you have suggested).
