I actually do that too sometimes. I press the top part of my right foot against my desk. It somehow feels that by applying pressure on my foot, my hands stay more "relaxed" (?). It's weird, I can't really explain it. Maybe it's just a reaction to the nerves.Xayne wrote:
I realized something when I was playing last night. I curl my toes up tightly and stress the muscles in my legs during high pressure situations. I guess in an attempt to keep me from tensing up in my arms/fingers/wrists, I subconsciously tense up other muscles. I have to say it's pretty successful. I can generally stay pretty loose in the areas that matter.

I clench my butt when I stream 420bpm.
Hitting my keys realy hard when I feel I can't keep up on streams. Hitting hard when jumping too.
Sometimes tapping to the beat using the two keys at the same time during breaks especialy on songs I realy like.
Readjusting my pen almost every breaks.
I like to spin my cursor everywere in the game and during breaks but on spinner I get slow RPMs.
Almost always lucky 100/50 hit notes after a spinner that seam to be the end of the map.
Checking combo/accuracy/position in MP... while playing and missing.

Everytime i play, i always have to re adjust my laptop and mouse position...
i can't play without having my thumb under my index finger like cookiezi
boring map patterns cause me to almost fall asleep and loose combo i has too many wierd habits to think of ._.

When I get a high combo, I glance at the combo counter and at the same time break it
on extra beatmaps i use HT+SD o.o
I can't play osu with my legs on the floor. I have to put my legs in the chair crossed.

I tend to daydream/think deeply when I'm playing OSU....
When I'm bored.
Thus causing me to lose combo! :O
Or fail the map......
But 95% of the time I don't fail or lose combo~
So-i somehow can play OSU while daydreaming/thinking which is weird......
:/

I do the same thing but rather than it being a weird habit I think its just my ADHD (wot attention span?)vivisiow wrote:

I tend to want to S or SS everything when I get a good start.
I tilt my head to the right whenever it gets hard for me, it usualy results in horrible neck pain :c
I wear my headphones even though I play with speakers on most times
I tug my shirt during every break even thought the song might be easy
I can't play unless i sit on my left feel and shake my right.

But wow!i never thought someone would have the same habit as me!:D
I don't think it's uncommon to start thinking about other stuff in osu!, so instead I'll list my other habit :
I start tilting my head to the left the more I play. It's pretty noticeable. The harder the song, the more the tilt.

I sometimes predict spinners in the middle of nowhere and spin, I also sometimes smash my head on the keyboard when I miss sometimes...
I shake my left foot when I get really into a map.
It's not even to the beat of the song, I just have random foot spasms.
My accuracy always goes up when I do it though.

Isn't really a bad habit but it started happening lately to me....
Forget my pen grip until i warm up, and when im already warm up i want to stop playing for now , then the cycle repeats so my improvement is kinda stuck .

I have no Emotions my Cursor is moving like a Bot 
lol Im sure a lot of people have that habit. I for one have it too... but I also like raise my pinky (keyboard hand) when I stream :3vivisiow wrote:

Any time the song decides to play notes to the beat, but you have small little "breaks" in between each note, I decide to do a little swing of the mouse or something.
... which happens to make me miss sometimes.

Same here; I've also developed a habit of flipping the bird (middle finger) on my monitor whenever I'm frustrated and miss a note/fail a song, in a way to release the stress.Dm1321 wrote:

when i played with a mouse i used to always click for no reason during a spinner.Louis13 wrote:

I cross my left leg on top of my chair when I'm about to FC sometimes.
the closer i lean to my screen the better my accuracy and speed becomes. sometimes by the end of the beatmap im less than 5 inches away from the screen
My fc-Rate and acc is much much better when i put a soda stream bottle under my chin and lean my head on it like this dude with his hand

I think about other things than osu! so I miss.
Idk why, but for some reason whenever I play oh-sue I can't stop sucking. :-(
Very bad habit will break very soon.
Very bad habit will break very soon.
Whenever I get really focused, I tend to hunch my back and/or lean to one side. No wonder my chiropractor says I have a bad back
I can't play while hearing my keyboard's taps, it makes me suck. So I push the sound up whenever I play, hurting my ears.
Best habit ever.SomeLoli wrote:
I pretend I'm Legolas for 5 minutes every time I SS something
I took a drink of Red Bull right before a song started, played the entire thing, then realized I didn't swallow until after the song was over. I literally sat there with Red Bull in my mouth through the entire play and had no idea.
I stop playing serious everytime i do 1 miss/sliderbreak, even if i dont play for pp or if i play maps that are way to hard. Pretty annoying
I like to alternate my keys, and when they're not the same, I make an effort to even them out.
I often restart songs before the first note
I acknowledge osu! is an easy game that requires no skill at all.
A few days ago I switched my tapping fingers to the ring finger/index finger during a song. idk the reason but it happened lol
I can't find the bad habit thread now, but if there's a double that's sufficiently fast enough where I think I'll break on singletapping it, I'll just do a triple.
It feels really dirty.

i tilt my head up slightly when the song takes too long..
I'll tap my feet to the rhythm and hold down the mouse one button for better aim idk if it actually does or not but generally I cant play without holding down the mouse one button it feels weird.
Recently I started gritting my teeth on longer/faster streams, so stupid.

I download a lot of maware maps and force other people to play them
I play the game while laying down on my side on the top bunk of my bunk bed. kek
I can't play for shit if I try playing while sitting up or in any other environment.

Sometimes I turn the music off and just leave the hitsounds.
not sure if this is a good habit or not
but i have a rather low stamina
so what happens when I really start getting tired
i kinda just shut off that part of my senses
my eyes are burning but they don't blink at all
my hand is burning but it refuses to stop
my pen is getting really hard to hold but it stays in my hand
my breathing's intense as hell
and it's really freaking scary when that map happens to be a marathon

me neither
I constantly change my playstyle, like really, almost to the point that I use a different playstyle for different parts of a song. I can start off tapping z then switch to alternating then switch to x and so on, all in the middle of a song 
I really like to cursor dance near the end of maps I retain full combos on.
Eventually that combo dies as a result.

I have a bad habit of blinking my right eye really hard while playing resulting in me pretty much closing my eyes and losing any combo I have I haven't made any plays at all in the last few weeks cause of it. It's only when I play/watch, think about Osu too so trying to stop thinking about it is hard when it's associated with Osu
I'll never get PP again ;-; (PS If anyone has had anything similar feel free to pm.. save me)

Increasing osu! mouse sensivity by 0.05 every week.

When I'm playing osu! I have to move my keyboard further then I usually do when I use it because I have small area for mouse (or I just have low DPI maybe). Also I don't even notice changes after increasing sensivity. Slowly making progress to be able to play on mousepad and with usuall keyboard location in future.YayMii wrote:

That weird habit when I actually FC something.
If I'm coming off of a slider immediately into a double tap, I usually do K2 for the slider, then K2 K1 for the double tap, instead of doing K1 K2 K1 or K2 K1 K2.
I also cursor dance at slow parts to the point where I end up missing a lot of the time ;~;

i draw several kawaii faces on people (if there is people) on the BG. like >.< ^w^ ect
idfk if people can even see this considering how old of a thread this is but I saw a few of those who lean their head left in some occasions. I do it and when I notice it and correct it my already bad performance turns even worse - does anyone know the reason for it? Tablet/mouse too far away/tapping fingers in a "bad location"... it annoys me

I bow my head to the left when I spin long spinners.
1.I think while playing a song how am i going to fail this time? A sliderbreak or something..
2. I think 100's are a bit worse than 300 but still good.
3. I think failing or getting 100's or 50's are exceptional on streams,bursts cuz i just cant do them.
4. Sometimes thinking to blame my keyboard for being to slow on the fast bursts/streams even tho i think its my fingers problem that pressing too much my fingers gets frozen in place.
5.Cannot learn from the mistakes i did to fail the x map. ( I mean doing the same mistake )
