I cleared insane maps around 1,000 plays, I guess that's kinda good but everyone is different. It might take me 1,000 but it took you 10,000, it doesn't mean one of us is better than the other.

It took about... hmm... 1-2 months. I don't even remember how many plays I had.

Don't remember how many plays I had but I started to pass insanes after a month maybe, and fc easier ones in 3-4 months I think.

I can pass/FC some easy insanes and a few moderately fast ones right now. I'm at around 1.5k plays and I've been playing for roughly two months.

//using a tablet makes it easier too ahaa

Why are people still responding to OP's 2 year old question?

Because some of us likes to compare our answers to other people and see how much faster we improved.

A month and a half
I think it's less, but I don't remember.
I know this sounds cliché, but I improved drastically after getting my tablet.
Rio-
Kinda remembered the time when I passed No, Thank You in Insane after ~1,5k play roughly 1 month
WAVEDASH
Definitely not 10k plays~
Kouya-
When I first started playing 3 months back, I only played Easy and sometimes Normal .

A month and a half after, I got my first S on a Hard Song .

Now, I mostly play Hard and Light/Moderate Insane Maps .

Reply got deleted and had to re-type it again, got lazy so summed it up ._.

Passed my first insane around 3k plays, currently i can finish most insanes on at least A (The really hard ones i get B).

5.9k plays in just under 4 months, and the best i probably got is this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u80YhKG7aBA
beatmap - http://osu.ppy.sh/b/216133
Got a 313 combo on it with 95.87% accuracy and 3.4M score. This was also my first time playing it.

6k plays and i got a 637 combo, 95% accuracy with 9.2m score http://osu.ppy.sh/b/368933?m=0

I started passing insanes at around 2.5-3k plays. Maybe less. I always played maps that were out of my skill level though, so maybe I just took a shortcut per se to get to the harder maps.

Recently I started getting perfect combos on insanes and I got my first 2 S ranks on insanes within the last week with around 5k plays ^_^

However, i'm not too sure about the accuracy of how many plays I actually have, since most of them are just me failing near the beginning many, many times (if you look at my historical) or failing an fc and restarting immediately. So in reality the plays may be less... oh and I'm currently siutting at around 5.8k~ plays.

You're right plays aren't a very good indication, in all honesty I don't think rank is a good indication either. It all depends on how long ago you started playing and how often you play, as well as what you are using (Mouse or tablet). Mouse has a slight disadvantage cause it takes longer to learn how to aim well... I started out with a mouse because I leaned of osu back when I was using a Mac so due to software limitations I couldn't use my tablet (h610) cause of the large work area, so I know that it is a bit more difficult, on the contrary I have a fiend who got into osu at the same time as me but he stuck to using a mouse and he is slightly bellow my skill level. What I'm pushing at is "how long and how often you play?" Is a much better indication of where you should be at... But at the end of the day this question becomes a "who has a bigger dong " contest :D Everybody should just go at their pace instead of comparing themselves to others (then again who doesn't like a thrill of a good contest)

from when i started hmmm about 1 year and 8 months to properly do insane with mouse and when i switched to Touchscreen i can FC S pro Insanes and regular normal Insane with DT i also got really really good with jumps xD owo
Insyni
About 11k plays to barely pass an easy insane. I'm still struggling to pass most insanes at almost 15k plays.

Based upon my current progress I should be able to pass insanes at a more consistent rate when I reach 30k play-count.

Still can't say that I can't finish all insanes (there's is even a "hard" that I can't complete...), even though I probably have near 10k plays. I'm not worried though, I'm determined to get good no matter how long it takes~

i just completed the Hard on "Hommarju feat. Latte - masterpiece" and id say its about the "easy insane" difficulty, and i can blast through about 1/2 of the Insane difficulty... I'm at 5.2k plays and 6 months in osu (take away about 3 months due to slow activity) ... you can try the hard difficulty and it will give you a rough indication of where I'm personally at after 3 months of OSU!, playing every day for at least an hour a day.

That song is evil =P
I say that because I hate jumps.
I've been playing Osu! on and off for about year (with a mouse), before I decided to get a tablet and see what I can do. That kind of makes it difficult to judge when I passed my first Insane song, but I would guess it took under 3k plays (after I switched to a tablet). At this point, I have over 12k plays and can pass most Insane songs easily as long as they don't have too much jumps. I hate jumps with a passion. Its just pure torture for me =P

This is so true. Don't try to do the same thing as other people, or attempt to climb as fast as some other people if you really can't do it or if you're just pushing yourself way past your limits.

For me, I climbed relatively quickly only because I played everyday and challenged myself to fc something, or at least get a high combo, or even perhaps beat an x rated map or a very difficult insane rated map. At the end of the day its really just how people wanna approach the game and how they think they'll improve the fastest and there's not really just 1 or 2 ways set in stone for someone to improve. Just keep playing.

i could do easy insanes at 3 plays

fc'd scarlet rose DT FL HD at 15.

One thing I keep forgetting to mention and ask about is AR... I can FC about 90% of AR 8 songs on my playlist and I can play most AR 9 songs unless they have long streams, my stamina is low due to medical issues so I can't keep a long stream going although I can press fast enough so I prefer jump hell to streams, so my question is, after playing osu for a wile what AR can you reliably complete (full or high combo) and because of the split into jump hell and streams at AR 9, which do you prefer jump hell or streams ?

After one month (around 2.5k plays) I was able to pass Refrain of the Lovely Great War on Lunatic, back when I still used a wireless mouse and membrane keyboard. Since I got a tablet I've been improving a lot faster.
PureHater
I started Insanes after ~1700 playcount, ive been playing a month, but ive been playing a lot of hours during that time because if too much free time,
and if i really want to pass insane, i just sit for 3 hours on the same map by failing at 5% then at 10% then 20.. blah blah blah
basically what ive noticed is you just need to play the map over and over until your eyes get used to the speed and thats it >: :D

How does the definition of "insane" relate to Star Difficulty?

2.51 - 3.50
I think.
might start at 2.50 but i dont see why because Expert starts at 3.51.
lLakul
I'm at 2500~ plays right now and I can do like 10 insane maps most, with B, like 1 with A and the rest C. From someone who is a lot better than me, is that good?
YamiHikari
Depends, insanes can be like 3-5 stars now.
I started playing insanes around 4k playcount and up till now (7k playcount) i've been training on more and more 4 stars. Would say that now at 7k(or nearly) playcount I can pass whatever insanes as long as they don't have death streams. ?
FreshMint
took me 6 months on/off osu! for me to start *consistently* FCing insanes.(Around 12k playcount i think)
Athrun
Well, I'm getting better at insane songs, yet I still can't FC some of them since i have a crappy mouse which twitches if i don't place it properly.. I usually play hard songs with DT so yeah...
I Give Up
In the first month I could barely even fc hards. After I got new mouse I passed insane song within a few days. $pay2win
Frc
Lol, that means I probably suck, because i couldn´t face my first insanes until 2 months of playing.
B1rd
almost a year and still can't FC insanes for shit.
Kishidle
Started FCing insanes at 3-4k.
This was with Aero enabled, now that I actually turned it off now I can't FC anything ;w;
Nakano Itsuki
I can pretty much FC Insanes within a month or two... however since I didn't bother with Bootcamp I got lag spikes that broke my combos... ;_;

But I only passed Insanes only after I bought a tablet. Perhaps I wasn't built for mouse play after all. :P

I've been playing strictly DT/HR for the last 5k (starting around 13k) plays and can't read ar9 well anymore but I can read AR8DT well and can read AR10 well (aside from minor issues with stacks and hidden notes) and can barely read AR8.5DT. AR10.3 is completely unreadable for me. I can barely follow even the easiest AR10.3 maps if I mash through them with shitty accuracy assuming I can even keep up with the bpm.
AnegelSeeker
just a quick update, ive been playing osu on and off for 3 months now and have developed my own style to hold the pen and click, ive reached 7k... well about 8k plays counting friends account, and now im able to complete current 6 -7 star songs, not fc but that will come with more practice if i ever take this game seriously again :o . for now ill have fun listening to music and challenging my skill as i have done before :)
