osu! focuses on getting full combos with an S rank. Most of your top plays are Bs, which is pathetic.
Wasn´t this a bit too much? lol.
Anyway, its not bad to eventually try harder maps than what your capabilities are and "mash" once in a while. The bad thing is to make it a habit, and be constantly trying to play things you cannot handle, read, or whatever.
You should folow three rules for an all round improvement and not messing up your reading.
1) Play maps you are well acquainted with and try to Full combo (FC) them, in a reasonable amount of retrys ( if not, move on)
2) Play maps Above your level, which you know you cannot full combo but still are able to pass with decent comfort.
3) Move between ars ( 8, 9 and 10) don´t get stuck constantly on one, and go back to old scores to improve them.
Folowing these and be balanced in how much time you spend on each point, will equal in a balanced playing style. Meaning you won´t only be able to play for instance, DT ar8 maps, but also nomod maps with hard patterns, or a high density map. GL!!
