you can conclude from the pp on the B's that he has 1-4 misses and 50% or more combo. it's unlikely to fail like that.
Easy is subjective.
Yeah, one thing. Your top ranks should REALLY not be Bs. Maybe move down a couple of difficulties until you're able to FC stuff with good acc.
I have a 151pp C play. I played it once and now I can't even get close to that combo again. HelpMahoganytooth wrote:

Well flukes happen. Hell, my top rank isn't even a FC. It's just that OP has several Bs. All 3 of OP's top ranks are Bs and OP is playing above his/her level.

300PP D rank or bust.
then there's always jesse's top rank which im glad got moved back up by the system changes, those dt pp map S ranks didn't deserve to overtake it.

I might have exaggerated on that "easy" part, but who cares? I just said it's easy because I rarely fail on it. Also, some are B's on my top rankings mainly because I broke my combo by choking :v
Anyway, "slump" might not be the right word for what's been happening to me. What I'm feeling exactly nowadays is that my left hand (for x and z) gets tired much more quickly, and it kinda stings me too. It just suddenly became like this for me. Before this, I could last for more than 4 hours of playing.
It might just be an effect of withdrawal for a while.

ah, regarding the easy part, my top ranks are B mainly because of poor accuracy. those beatmaps, of course, reached my top ranks either because I didn't miss or i had a really damn high combo close to FC (and maybe no miss until at least 3/4 of song).

Don't worry about it. Gameplay and Rankings' pastime is nitpicking to death.robertztoe wrote:

Play for accuracy, not difficulty. Stick with playing maps you can 95%+ high combo. Playing above your skill just creates bad habits and shortcuts. Stop playing when you get tired, practicing too much is just as bad as practicing too little.
I like playibg for fc and not acc.
This is why I'm bad.

Very high accuracy is usually (but not always) worth significantly more than a full combo. You'll usually get more pp for a 99.5% half combo than an FC at 85%.Kheldragar wrote:

I don't think that applies on longer maps that have combos above 800, but I never get 99.5% acc so I wouldn't know.Philosofikal wrote:

you don't get any pp for a half combo fc

welp, to me, a full combo is much more attractive than nice accuracy :3 though bad accuracy also leaves a bad taste.
Rub Nutella between your fingers and all over your cursor input device. This allows for less friction, promoting breezy streaming, single tapping and aiming. Once you've done so, you will also be able to play OD69.
This also gave me the aim required for CS420Venzire wrote:

It's all based on scientific studies Tillerino has done on the pp scoring system. You can find more about it here:Kheldragar wrote:

To be fair, I'm currently in a major slump too. What I've done was set different goals for myself not related to pp gain. For example, on days where I can't seem to hit 50+ pp plays for my life, I instead drop down to the Easy and Normal difficulties to increase my SS count. On other days, I work on creating beatmaps. Other days, I play Taiko, Catch the Beat, or mania. Technically, you're still being active on the osu! client, but it does count as a break, and it works just as well as if you took a break to to do other things.
Sometimes slumps take longer than days to break out of. That's ok.

Jograt, i was wondering if you wanted to play together. I was reading your post about your slump and i'm feeling exactly the same way. I have bad accuracy as well haha.
Anyway i thought it would be good to play with someone of a similar sort of view on the game as well as a rank very close to my own. I think it may help with both of our slumps.

You should always play harder songs rather than going back to normals.Minhtam wrote:

I'm not too sure if this has been posted yet but take a break?
Not everyone performs at their peak all the time, you shouldn't expect to be able to do equivalent difficulty maps as your top performance either (unless you improve, which we all know how to).

There we go, after kind of totally not playing osu because of finals week and some other schoolworks, my major slump is gone.
In fact, my rhythm came back with a vengeance. I had back to back no misses and S's on insane maps
and yeah, it made my rank jump.
Thanks to everyone who gave a tip. Taking a break is indeed the only solution against long-term slumps.

I'm in a slump too wtf I can't gain 300 ranks a day everyday anymore.
I have to play osu! for like 5+ hours a day to get ranks. And I can only play like this for a couple days or so at a time before I'm burned out and need to take a break.
Never stop playing. Not even for a day.B1rd wrote:

Yes, you definitely should take breaks.
It's been 3 months and I still haven't gone one day without playing at least 1 hour a day. Your concept of breaks is weird and alien. Isn't sleep enough?B1rd wrote:

I probably play casually for an hour on off days, mainly you just shouldn't force yourself to play (seriously) if you don't feel like it.
spot where i got mad at clicking circles. Always helps to just quit playing for a while if you're getting frustrated. You probably shouldnt quit for 3-4 weeks like me though. Maybe a week.
