Hello.
General
- Regarding the diff name, as Lust brought it up, considering it's only one diff on the mapset, it should be okay to leave it as it is. Also the matter isn't because of BSS, but because there's a new rule, that does not allow custom diff names anymore. Do check it *here* for more information. And about the BSS, that is not supposed to happen when you just simply change the name of the diff. You should probably get someone to check it if that happens again.
- A lot of SV changes here. Keep in mind using only three is the recommended. It's not an unrankable issue, as long as it makes sense with the type/part of the song and difficulty you are doing. You might want to get more feedback on this though.
Absolution
- There are unsnapped inheriting sections at 00:30:758 and 00:38:378. Snap them to 00:30:764 and 00:38:383, respectively.
- 00:18:383 (3,4,1) - Spacing here looks a bit unpolished. I think you can keep up with the same spacing at least here. Basically you'll just need to move the circle to fix this up, keeping them at 1,6x should be nice (Example: x:178 y:228). Also, I think the flow can be improved here by moving the same circle to the right, so it gives some variation on the section:
- 01:08:859 (1) - A bit nazi but, have you considered making this unstacked? I mean, I haven't seen much of stuff like this on the diff, so you should probably do the same here (like in 01:13:145 (4) - for reference):
- 01:14:573 (1) - You can move this down a bit, so the overlap with 01:14:097 (6) - is improved. Just check that the slider at 01:14:097 (6) - ends in the middle of the next slider; overlaps looks much better like that:
- 01:15:764 (3) - Pretty much the same thing I said on 00:18:383 (3,4,1) -, I think this section can have a bit more of variation to improve flow. Moving either a bit up or down can give that feeling, but I'd suggest moving it down a bit (x:168 y:148), as it gives a better direction to the next slider:
- 01:16:478 (1) - Hmm, you should consider moving just a bit up. The flow is good here, but considering the shape of the slider it looks like it should be placed above the previous slider, not aligned to it, so basically you can improve the visuals:
- 01:17:430 (3) - You can give a bigger spacing between this and 01:16:954 (2) -, so it doesn't look like an unnecessary overlap, even if it's not actually overlapping.
- 01:25:049 (3) - The placement of it is a bit random to me. I mean, you could've placed it at where 01:24:097 (1) - ends or begins, so it gives a more solid gameplay. Give it a try, place the slider at x:297 y:153 (deactive grid snap for this), and see if you agree with me:
- 01:33:383 (8) - You can give this a bit more of spacing. I felt like this was supposed to be in a diamond shape (considering 01:32:668 (5,6,7,8) -), but it's a bit unpolished:
- 01:35:526 (1,2,3,4) - I'm very nazi when it comes to blankets, so I could't let this pass. You can work a bit more on the shape of them, to exactly improve the blankets. Also you might want to move 01:35:526 (1,2) - just a bit to the left (careful to not overlap with 01:34:573 (3) - ) so you can have a better space of the grid when making changes on the sliders:
- 01:45:049 (5,6) - Two things here, one is about pattern and the other about placement. The slider at (5) should be just a 1/2, it doesn't really match with the song on the blue tick. Also, reducing the length of the slider will allow you to move the slider at (6) to a better place, the current overlap it's going it's not good, visually speaking. Instead, try stacking it with the previous slider, it'll give a nice flow and will improve the visuals:
- 01:47:906 (3) - Hmm, it should flow better if this goes upwards instead of downwards. Check it out:
- 01:52:073 (4) - Very nazi, but you might want to move just a grid right (x:212 y:196), so the triplets are aligned better.
- 01:53:383 (2) - Also the thing about variations here. Try doing a ctrl+g here and see if it flows better for you.
- 02:03:621 (6,1) - Overlap can be improve here, just like what I said on 01:14:573 (1) -. Make the (1) a bit more wider and place it so that (6) ends in the middle of it:
- 02:15:764 - I also agree with Lust, this slowdown isn't necessary here as it does not match with the song. I think you should have it only at 04:57:430 - , as it makes more sens with the song.
- 02:28:383 (6) - Consider making it going upwards? It flows better to me, give it a check:
- 02:32:668 (1) - Change the colour of the NC? I mean, the previous combo is already purple, and to emphasize better the kiai you shouldn't make it the same color of the previous combo. If you don't know how to choose a specific combo colour between the combos, just go on the New Combo tab on the upper-right and click only on the small arrow, that way you can choose what colour to add on the new combo:
- 02:43:144 (1) - I feel you could've made this a 1/2, since the next slider is already on the blue tick. It's just me though, but I do like the combination of them.
- 02:44:097 (3) - Place at x:194 y:326 as it's the place where 02:43:144 (1) - begins, will make the placement less random.
- 02:48:859 (2) - Same thing as above, you could place this at where 02:47:906 (1) - ends though (x:168 y:64) so it also makes it less random, and also to fix the overlap. Plus, I'm sure it'll flow a lot better:
- 02:51:716 (4) - Make its shape a little less wider, so you can improve the blanket here:
- 03:25:049 (2) - You can make the "S" shape a lot better here by moving some nodes:
- 03:33:383 (1) - Think you can move this down a bit? Or change its shape so that it goes down? It's kinda off the grid, and since it's below the HP-bar, you might want to move it.
- 03:40:049 (2) - Hmm, the circle can go to x:156 y:216, so there will not be an overlap with 03:39:335 (1) -, plus, it'll match up with 03:41:240 (1) -:
- 03:51:478 (2,3,4) - Feels more consistent if they were all on the same y-axis, since they are aligned in a straight way:
- 04:06:954 (1,2) - This kinda ruins the flow. You could've made a jump here to keep the flow going. For reference, something like 04:18:382 (1,1) - would be nice.
- 04:17:192 (2) - Also nazi again, but just move this to x:176 y:205 so it's better "stacked" with 04:16:240 (6) - (deactivate grid snap for a bit to do this as well).
- 04:23:144 (4) - Looks a bit unpolished as well. Try using less nodes so the shape doesn't goes rusty:
- 04:43:621 (3,4) - Nice overlap! But I still think it can be improved. If you make both beginning and end more visible, it'll certainly be a bonus:
- 04:49:811 (1) - Can you also change the colour here? Just like I said on 02:32:668 (1) -. Even though there's no kiai, I still think this should be of another color.
- 04:57:906 (2) - Give a bigger spacing to improve blanket?
- 05:12:668 (1) - You should decrease the length of it to the white tick (05:13:144 - ), as the beat is quite strong there. Will make it better emphasized.
- 05:46:001 (1,2) - Overlap can be improved. Just move (2) a bit more to the left:
- 05:51:240 (1) - Make it more visible?
- 06:52:311 - Following the song, I think you should add a circle here, so it doesn't sound empty.
- 06:55:763 - Same as above, I think you can add an object so it doesn't sound empty with the song. You can make it a stack with 06:55:525 (7) -.
- 07:52:668 (2) - NC because kiai.
- 08:13:025 (3,5) - Think you can also make these more visible?
- 08:31:418 (1) - Looks like the end of it is unsnapped. Got this on AiBat: http://puu.sh/6XpFk.png
- 08:33:501 (2,4,6) - Same as above.
