Hello DarkVortex! PM request
* All the hitsound comments on the Extra diff can also be used for Standard/Hyper.
* Sorry, but I don't play other game modes and I can't pass Extraand I'm too lazy to puush everything
* 1/1 circles shouldn't overlap in Easy diffs.
* 00:14:497 (2) - Maybe move the slider a little bit so you can avoid the overlap with (1) of the next combo.
* 00:18:403 (2,1) - Not perfectly stacked.
* 00:06:124 (3,2) - ^
* 01:11:985 (2) - What happened to the DS here o_o
* 01:28:729 (1) - This is almost touching (2) - try to move it further away with DS on.
* 01:32:078 (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1) - All these NCs are not needed in a Beginner diff. The HP drain is already low.
* 01:36:543 (1,1,1,1) - This is too repetitive imo. You can try different patterns here for variety.
* 01:45:613 (2,3) - This gap is too large don't you think? Maybe add a circle at
Really nice diff, but I'm afraid you have to remap (just add more spacing) because of the Ranking Criteria o_o Ask a BAT and see if it counts for 'Beginner' diffs.
* 00:06:962 (1,2,3) - Not a big problem, but you are following two different instruments here. The rhythm here is a bit awkward to play and might confuse newbs - to me it's fine, but consider using a simpler rhythm.
* 00:29:008 - There's a strong beat here, so why not add a note here? If you don't want to add a note here, maybe start the break here.
* 00:39:613 (3,4,1) - All your sliders from before created a kind of circular flow, however (3,4,1) are just in a straight line which kind of breaks it imo. Try this to keep the flow going
* 00:40:171 (1) - Your repeat slider's repeat ends at a very strange part. I recommend to just keep it simple and follow the main piano track.
* 00:46:869 (3) - This wave slider points up, but (1) is down. Try to adjust the shape of the slider to keep the flow going.
Nice diff! Should be ready after a few more mods.
* AR8 fits this diff more. It's a very high BPM and parts like 00:58:311 (3,4,5,6,7) - and 01:42:683 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2) - are a bit hard to read with AR7.
* 00:07:938 (5,6) - Offbeat sliders - try this rhythm.
* 00:10:311 (1,2,1) - This is too squised together and with AR7 this might be hard to read. Either tweak this pattern a little or change AR.
* 00:21:892 (2,3,4,5) - These are offbeat, it also plays weird, because the sliders in the previous one are good. I suggest you to move the beats 1/2 tick earlier and stack a 1/2 on (6) at 00:22:869
* 00:24:543 (1,2,3,4) - This stack is bearly readable and I don't recommend doing this in a Hard diff. It's very confusing, especially after a 1/4 repeat slider. Don't make it perfectly stacked and use a spacing like 00:26:776 (1,2,3,4) - or use a different stack leniency. (this is just my opinion, dunno about BATs lel)
* 00:46:869 (1) - I don't really like the overlap with (2), maybe tweak the slider shape a bit?
* 00:50:776 (1) - Is this NC here needed? You didn't use it at 00:26:776 (1,2,3,4) -
* 00:53:985 (2) - I don't really hear a strong beat on the red tick :/ Try a different rhythm?
* 01:04:729 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - DS so large >_<" Dunno what BATs think. Nice pattern though.
* 01:11:427 (1,2) - I don't get this. Why is (2) longer? The song still has 1/4 in between these, do it like 00:26:776 (1,2,3,4) - ? 01:32:078 (1,2) - is fine, because there's a clear break in between those two, but I don't really hear a break here >_>
* 01:29:287 (1,2) - ^
* 02:03:892 (5) - Remove this repeat slider and add a 1/2 slider here. The beat is stronger here than 02:04:171 (1) -
I'm a little worried about the 1/4 repeat sliders and high DS, but should work out. Good rhythm and the placement is fine!
* You sure about AR8.5? It's a 215BPM song and some jump patterns could be a little messy with this AR. I recommend changing to AR9 maybe even AR9.3 - but discuss with DarkVortex a bit.
* 00:03:055 (4,1,2) - Personally, I'm not really a fan of overlaps like these. The pattern would look better if you stack the slider end of (4) with 00:02:497 (2) - and but everything back with DS.
* 00:07:938 (5,6,7) - These sliders are offbeat and don't sound good. I don't recommend starting sliders on red ticks with songs like these. The sound better if you move these 1/2 tick earlier, just like 00:22:311 (1,2,3) -
* 00:14:636 (3,4,5,6,7,8) - Personal preference, but maybe decrease the DS here a bit. This diff doesn't really have really large jumps, and when you do have them there's only like 2 notes. Not 5 notes with really large DS. Try something like 00:59:706 (1,2,3,4,5) - Now the DS is similar to the Extra diffs.
* 00:15:334 (8,1) - (1) is offbeat, maybe make a 3/4 slider from (8)? Or just turn (1) into a single note like 00:24:264 (5,1) -
* 00:18:124 (3,4,5,6) - The overlaps here don't look really good IMO, but it's fine I guess.
* 00:29:008 (1) - The two red slider points are too close IMO. Try to move them a little.
* 00:46:869 (1,2) - These 1/2 repeats sliders sound off to me. The music has 1/4 in it, so why not just make it 1/4?
* 00:55:520 (1) - Is this finish needed here? I only hear a piano sound here, so I'd put a whistle here instead of a finish, and you have a finish already at the next combo.
* 00:57:473 (7,8) - Blankets would look nicer here IMO.
* 00:59:706 (1) - NC doesn't fit here, there are stronger beats in the song like at 00:59:148 (5) - or 01:00:264 (5) -
* 01:10:311 (5) - The repeat slider should start here and then followed by 1/2 circle. The rhythm you have now is offbeat.
* 01:26:776 (8,1) - Maybe rotate these -20° with Selection Centre? You could avoid the overlap between (5)
* 01:35:427 (1,2,3) - Why didn´t you stack with the previous combo here? You did it before at 01:33:194 (1) - 01:33:752 (9) - 01:37:659 (1) - so why not here >_> ?
* 01:35:776 (4) - This 3/4 spacing bothers me a little, but I can't think of a way to fix it with keeping this pattern :<
* 01:47:148 (1) - Personal preference, but this note is quite loud, so why not put a whistle here. Just like 00:47:985 (1,2,3,4) -
* 01:49:380 - Should the spinner end here? The sound here is much louder than 01:48:264
* 01:55:241 (1,1) - Dunno about the NCs here, there's no decreasing DS like 01:46:776 (1,1,1) -
* 01:56:078 - to 02:05:008 (1) - There are high piano sounds on the finishes in this last KIAI section. Putting whistles with the finishes here would sound OK imo. But this is just my opinion
* 02:01:659 (5,6) - I'd avoid the overlap with (7), maybe move these sliders a little down or space them out a little more?
Really fun map! Just take a look at all the sliders that are offbeat and should be good to go
* Check AIMod, you have a different preview time.
* 00:11:706 (3) - CTRL+J? Two times the same slider is a little boring.
* 00:13:380 (1,1) - Stack these?
* 00:16:590 (1,2,3) - Offbeat sliders, move them 1/2 tick later and add a 1/2 note to fill the gap.
* 00:21:055 (6,7) - ^
* 00:21:892 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
* 00:17:706 (1,2,3,4,5) - Same as above, offbeat sliders. Move them 1/2 tick later and redo the claps. Again, add a 1/2 note to fill the gap.
* 00:28:729 (13) - Tweak this slider a little to that the slider end points at (1) of the next combo. You'll have a smoother flow this way.
* 00:33:473 (1) - There's a cymbal/strong sound here, you should a finish here like the Another diff.
* 00:33:473 to 00:41:287 - This part doesn't have any hitsounds. Try to put whistles on slider heads, would sound better and maker it less 'boring'
* 00:46:311 (9,10) - Claps don't really fit here in the song. It was fine in the stream, but now it sounds like spam, whistles are fine enough here imo.
* 00:51:613 (4) - (same as other kicksliders) Hmm.. drum whistles sound better here. These claps are overpowering the song.
* 01:10:869 (6,7) - There are no cymbal sounds in the song itself, if you do want a similar sound try claps.
* 01:31:520 (13) - NC like 00:55:520 (1) - ?
* 01:48:822 (4) - Maybe put a whistle on the slider end, there's a high sound in the song.
Same as 01:49:938 (2) - 01:50:496 (4) - etc..
* 01:51:613 - The sliderslide is too loud here imo, try to lower the volume here.
* 01:54:962 (1,2,3,4) - This looks randomly placed, and (2) is almost hidden behind the combo count while playing. Just try a diamond/square shape with a lower DS.
* 02:00:543 (1) - I think you missed a finish here.
The diff looks like it's really fun to play, but I can only stream 190BPM max ;_;
You should pay attention to offbeat sliders and look at the Beginner diff and check the RC. After you've done that get some more mods and it should be good to go
Good luck!

Nya Nya Neko's Beginner
The reasoning is because most new players are going to react slowly to a spinner, so there's a delay in starting them. Then they will also spin wildly, usually drawing along the perimeter of the screen. Once the spinner is complete, they will be most probably disoriented and wondering where their cursor is. This is the reason why if you have a spinner in the middle of a mapped phrase, you should allow for as much time as possible for recovery. A good rule of thumb is 3-4 beats after a spinner, but this can vary depending on BPM.
Now, you're going to want to use Distance Snap for most of an Easy. So, adjust the distance snap multiplier so that hit circles only one beat apart don't overlap each other. For circle 4 a distance snap of .5 should work. New players often find hit circles that overlap each other like that hard to read. Most of the time, just having them next to each other without overlapping is good enough.* Recheck your spinner usage.
* 1/1 circles shouldn't overlap in Easy diffs.

Hope you will at least take a look at Extra as it is still completely unmodded. Thanks for modding so far
