What about AR10.33? How can I improve myself in reading high approach rate? And not just "play more". I want to read any AR regardless of the situation. For example, play AR10.33 without any problems after long playing of AR8
You have to literally play everything a lot. Don't AR 10.33 for a month straight then go back to AR9 and find you can't read it. Play everything all the time.

The editor is your friend. Change the ars of your favorite maps/practice maps to something just slightly above what you're comfortable with, get used to that and then hitch it up again. Keep doing this and one day you will do the ar 10.33 8-]

OD and AR don't matter. Play maps that are aim intensive.

Your plays per month tell me you don't do it enough.

I used to play harder beatmaps like... bottom insanes?(yeah hard for me)
What i mean by playing is staying alive,pass,not die,stop s@cking,(never happened)- yes, it was so much fun.Don't judge, wanna improve.
So that got me a whooping 80% accuary , wonderful isnt it?
That was around 380pp.
Then i started reading the forums, people told each other to play songs that you can FC to improve.
So then i started playing easier maps wich got me to ~600pp or something.
I was like : Wut? of course im doing better at them cuz they are easier, but im getting rewarded for that?
Then i realised i was bad at easy maps too.
k playing, practising, all cool man.
My accuary improved by like ~1.8%, and it felt like i was less horrible at them.

Went back to playing maps mentioned above... and i s@cked even more.


wtf m8

I know im being a BAKA!, but how can you tell whether or not you are improving?

Change your scoreboard to Local Scores and compare your new scores to your old ones.

You know you improved when you feel that you can do harder maps than you used to be able to. This is pretty obvious people.

As your reading ability improves, harder maps should start to become easier. If you're failing maps that you used to (barely) pass, it's probably because you're mashing less and reading more, so your old techniques (aka bad habits) aren't being used. Give it time and enjoy game.

so that's why i'm skipping the 10th circle on a particular pattern in airman...

This is some great advice or inspiration or something :)

Aim and Stream maps are perfect to get better. And in my experience trying to DT jump maps helps me aim and combo break less.

i really wanna read this but im so lazy :(

Play more.

Actually play less, cuz i have played more and more and i became worse so obviously playing less will make me a god.
I just want to be #1 instantly to show off, with no effort. Is that too much to ask for!?

Captain i failed.
The break i took was longer than i thought.

What do i change where pls its embarassing
Barusamikosu
@ShadyAngel You're still getting PP, though. Keep playing maps that are fun for you and you will eventually build up some consistency.

Play for fun, not for the pp as I always say.

Oh, i play osu everytime i can.
I'm going to die peacefully while tapping circles.


As a side note, I never thought gaining more pp means direct improvent in performance, and that it refers to something more complicated.But maybe I'm wrong who knows.

Whatever, downloading all those hardcore 3.0 * beatmaps. :D

Getting PP can be a way of improving, or a result of improving, depending on how you play. Seeing new scores in your Top Ranks shows that you're at least playing the game, which is all that's needed really.

I get the "play more" thing, but on my side I'm playing the same time everyday, went from #100k to #30k in 50 days, and since then I'm stuck at #30k, not moving an inch, still playing as much.
I tried many things but I guess everyone have a limit at some point, it's a bit like starting violin too old.
Yuudachi-kun
30k will not be your limit.

Apparently it is, I didn't stop playing, trying everything but the best days are when I manage to barely get back the rank lost.
I dunno why, for some reason it was so easy to rank up until 30k an suddendly not moving an inch since one month.

Maybe it was an instance of your skill was much better than your PP so you ranked really fast, but now your skill matches your PP, so you have to really tryhard for some of the scores, and you're feeling deflated because you're not used to not gaining ranks, and don't feel confident enough to make much ground.

You need more 100pp scores.

See if you can play https://osu.ppy.sh/s/53519. That was one of my first triple-digit-pp scores.
Ziassan
Well most of my top scores are only in 3/4 tries (and no FC) - after, the most I try a map the worst it goes (often loosing pp 'cause more combo but far worst accuracy). Thanks for the map that's indeed the kind I like, I tried it a month ago but got 1 miss in the middle so now I can't do it before long.
Mahogany
Honestly I find the biggest barrier to improving is to have enough maps you like. I could probably re-FC anything on my top plays within 5 attempts, but most maps I don't like :/

And yeah, trying the same map too much is usually bad, unless you really like the map (or are an acc-whore like I am, but go for the FC first)

We might have a similar taste in maps. PM me anytime you see me ingame and I'll /np you a bunch of stuff, hopefully it'll help.
Yuudachi-kun
Sometimes I fc in one-two plays for a session; sometimes I play a map 60 minutes straight to fc.
Insyni
I don't think any of my top ranks are fcs... Fcing is so hard.
