Will give this a try. Seems logical and may help me break the 50k rank barrier that I've been stuck at forever.
That's exactly why these will end up on the top of every bracket for most people so they'll eventually get good with tapping by playing them more than other maps.jaaakb wrote:
low stars (easy to aim) hard to tap maps are great for practicing tapping because you can ignore the aim part, concentrate on the tapping

sadly stars only tell you about the cursor waving aspect ,_, hav to try and see how difficult they are to tap, guestimate by objects and try them out

What? are you saying you had 99.16% but died on a difficulty spike ?Insyni wrote:
By the way, what do you do with songs that fall in all categories? I was just playing a song which I have 99.16% on and failed it with 91% then got 97% on the next try and 94% on the try after that...
I mean I have FCed it twice with 99%. Then when I went back to do it again I failed.pandaBee wrote:

When comparing it to best accuracy.Endaris wrote:
I think I mentioned somewhere that the best score counts.
I wouldn't get too worked up over it. There are certain stream maps I can finish with either 99%+ or <96% depending on my focus levels going into the map. Just go with your best score.Insyni wrote:
Though if you have a song you FC with 99%, then go back a few days later and only get 95% with a lower score... wouldn't it be best to move it down a few brackets?
Why not? It's good for trying to reduce UR on maps that take a lot of focus to do well (e.g. streams)Endaris wrote:
Being able to fc a song with 99% acc in 9 of 10 plays is NOT the desired result of this method
Yup. Though I would argue that you can do this even without increasing the OD, simply by listening to the hitsounds. I can usually tell when my hitsounds are off even if I get a 300xxjesus1412fanx wrote:
good way to decrease ur is to play maps that aren't demanding in the aim category but are higher od than you are used to so you are getting like 96%-97% then get that up to 99

You can always edit the maps to whatever od you want barucchi.Barusamikosu wrote:
Playing high OD is a good idea anyway. Knowing that you can't be lazy will force you to stay focused and lower your UR over time.
Unfortunately I can't play HR so I'm stuck with OD8 and the handful of OD9 maps that I can pass/FC.
Though if you FC a song with 99% then in the following 10 attempts you score 95% without a FC, wouldn't you agree it belongs in the 95% bracket even though you only managed to get good accuracy once or twice with some luck and rhythm?Endaris wrote:

plus hard shit is fun, well its fun if your enjoyment doesnt revolve around grinding for ppxxjesus1412fanx wrote:
Also, playing bullshit level hard stuff is a great way to warm-up and will make full-comboing things a lot easier when you step down the difficulty. confirmed by bahamete.

Halfway through day 2 i was spending most of my time on osu playing hards.
If you don't want to read my posts it's better if you write "tl;dr" okay?II Jelli II wrote:
i disagree that keeping the overall difficulty level low is a better practice environment then going for b's and barely a's on hard maps. I believe that both work as long as you play the game a lot. I remember when i first started playing, i played easy for about 15 mins until i got used to reading, then i moved onto normals and then normals with hr. Halfway through day 2 i was spending most of my time on osu playing hards. I had shit acc but it didnt matter, i was playing with the objective of passing maps that i couldnt pass before. I feel that this was the absolute best way for me to improve, however its not a good way to improve unless you can actually put the time into having so many retries and fails. I moved onto playing 4 star songs about 3 weeks after i started, i got so many fails but i was improving so it didnt matter. What im trying to say is that for beginners there is no such thing as a good practice environment, there are only bad ones <- such as playing 2 star songs forever, as long as you play the game as much as possible, you will improve quickly.
Doing this made realize just how shit my accuracy is. Thanks.Endaris wrote:

The idea is to organize every single one of your maps in accuracy brackets.
I suggest the following collections:
<88%
88-92%
92-95%
95-97%
97-98%
98-99%
99%+

This is probably the most useful guide I've seen since I've started playing. Wish I saw it sooner before I got 5000 beatmaps.

What if striving for pp makes you get better and have fun?Nadfee wrote:
Statistics and guides..
People around here really are playing seriously!
My view of it is to just play hard stuff and have fun! The skill comes as you have fun ^-^
Challenge yourself and keep playing different maps.
EDIT: Remember: Don't strive for PP, get better & have fun instead
Good point. Bad on my part, was probably being too close-minded.Khelly wrote:
