i recently hit 30k rank and i can only stream 160bpm for a second or two and then it goes down to 140-150 and all the beatmaps have some streams in them so i cant get full combo on any song any tips for practicing streams?
you mean you can mash 270! hitsounds are killing mekymotsujason wrote:

Try grinding those at the highest bpm you can manage if you want to increase your streaming speed. To increase stability though, try streaming at around half speed (160/2=80).
Or you could do what I did and play Freedom Dive [4D] on HT over 500 times. It did help me... I can stream at 270bpm.
Problem is that my 160 BPM lasts two seconds But I practiced for one and a half hours today. My arm hurts now but I will improve quick if I keep practicing like thisnaliem wrote:
I'm 10k and I stream 170 BPM, so OP GG
idk i can mantain 190 for 80 notes without missing u gotta sort dat outnaliem wrote:

I got RSI from playing with red switches.Sylveon wrote:
Obviously practise... But for me I found that when I switched from my rubbish keyboard to a mechanical one that on the day the mechanical one was delivered I had already improved ALOT just from changing keyboards. I think it's important to practise with decent equipment or your just wasting time. I got a repetitive strain injury from practising with my old keyboard and my streaming never improved. However now I feel I can really focus on not mashing and other streaming techniques

You guys got RSI because of however wrong you were using your hands, not because of your keyboards.Martell wrote:

true this, the hand positioning must be good to avoid injury. This aside, my tip for improving streams would be to go to a map which has some 15-20 note streams on it (straight streams preferably), i´ll suggest the map http://osu.ppy.sh/s/68075 its 200bpm so maybe you won´t do it but at least you know the type of map i talk about. So you approach a map like this and do your best to stream as much as you can until you tire, then you keep doing singles on the map until you feel your stamina recover, and repeat the process. Eventually keep doing this for like an hour til you feel your fingers are warmed up. Now go back to the bpm you where comfortable before and try streaming it with almost no pressure on the keys. Tap as light as you can and stream like this for some time, then go back to the map you struggled with and attempt it with light and fast tapping.GoldenWolf wrote:

Practicing with a shitty keyboard really isn't a waste of time. Playing with a rubberdome to me is like ankle weights in running. If you can play high BPM maps and stream very well with stiff rubberdomes, playing with a mech, your stamina will go through the roof. I haven't played with a mech keyboard that much since I was only borrowing but I felt so much better playing with them. Maybe to you, its a waste, but maybe to some people its more of a benefit than a con.Sylveon wrote:

How is it humanly possible to even consider this streaming like what in the mother of ... I don't even ... That's like, pure mashing, not even the kind of mashing I do ...kymotsujason wrote:

There were only 2 streams in that video that can be considered streaming, the rest are just mashing. Replays are quite useful, I found out the problems in my playstyle and fixed a lot of them (less mashing, more streaming).GoldenWolf wrote:

this is horrible streaming though
well it's not even streaming so yeah
yes, it doesnt matter. how the map is mapped itself - metters a lot. you can gain same pp from 240bpm dt score and hr/hrhd 160-180bpm one if it is mapped in a way which will give you an opportunity to do thisDexus wrote:
@Aka
BPM = Speed
DT = Lots of speed = Lots of PP
It only makes sense that the faster you can play and more accurately the more ranks you can get. The faster you are the easier it should be to hit notes. Saying BPM doesn't matter is very ignorant. Of course aim is an important factor but that's a different topic entirely.
Meh. Doubletapping is using both fingers at the time, mashing is alternating your fingers but just hope for the best.kymotsujason wrote:
By the way, I define streaming as alternatively tapping and mashing as tapping with both fingers at the same time if that helps anyone.
