1. Extra: 5,31 stars / Comfort: 7,69 stars. Of course you need at least an inbetween diff, or even two, depends on the spread
2. Not 100% sure about 1,59 and 3,09 between Normal and Hard

1. This should be made illegal

1. I can't even play this diff by myself, so my mod here won't be exactly good, I will only point out structural mistakes, sorry
2. 00:04:874 (3,4) - Improve this blanket, it's not really good
3. 00:08:311 (1,4) - Weird overlap
4. 00:09:040 (5,6) - This blanket is bad too, make it similar to that (4,5) blanket, that one is perfect
5. 00:11:228 (1,1) - Weird overlap
6. 00:35:533 (2,3,4,5,6,7) - Idk, this looks so random... Try to make some regular shape
7. 00:56:436 (5,1) - Uh, I'm not sure about the flow here, when you start the big round slider, you have to change the direction suddently, ctrl+g-ing the (1) would fix it, but would destroy the following pattern, so a better way to fix it in my opinion is moving the (5) somewhere to the right of the big slider, so it won't destroy the flow
8. 01:45:395 (1,4) - Weird overlap, make a better square
9. 01:53:103 (3,4) - In order to make it look better: move 3 to 65|75, move 4 to 313|233
10. This diff is out of my league, rip

1. 00:05:603 (3,4) - I don't like the way these elements overlap, quite unconfortable to see
2. 00:12:895 (1,2,3,4) - I know you want to emphasize this part, but this is too sudden in my opinion, and you will break the combo in 90% of cases
3. 00:27:061 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Why is the spacing in this stream completely random?
4. 00:32:686 (1,2,3,4) - This is not well-blanketed with the slider, you should try to make it more round to fit it
5. 00:36:228 (7) - Doesn't look really good, it's like a 2009/2010 slider lol
6. 00:59:561 (6,1) - Not good, they overlap
7. 01:16:645 (1) - This needs a ctrl+g, or it will break the flow
8. 01:21:020 (5,6,1,2,1,2) - No please, don't, this is a huge difficulty spike, compared to the rest of the map, I think you should really change it. People will get here, break their combo and rage a lot
9. 01:47:582 (4,1) - Too close each other
10. 01:52:895 (1,2,3,4) - Similar to 00:12:895 (1,2,3,4) -
11. I can't find huge mistakes here, don't hate me but honestly I don't like this map, because: First, the patterns look a bit random, it looks like there's not a structure in them, since there are lots of spacing changes which are completely random. (eg 00:23:520 (1,2,3,4,5,6) ) Second: The flow is weird in some parts, you have to reverse your hand while playing, or change direction in a weird way. (eg 00:46:332 (1,2,1) ) Last, some blankets are not really well made, and some sliders have weird shapes. (eg the ones I pointed out). I can't play Comfort diff, but it looks like something very similar happened there...

1. AR 9,3 on Insane diff? Not sure about it, you should decrease it until 8,8-9,0. It still plays well
2. 00:02:061 (2,3) - Weird overlap
3. 00:03:520 (1,1) - ^
4. 00:27:790 (4) - Prev: 0.71x / Next: 0.56x - This is weird
5. 00:28:520 (2) - Move to 311|232 for a more regular pattern
6. 00:41:436 (1,1,1,1) - Sorry if I get too nazi, but if you look closely you can notice that these sliders are not spaced equally, the gap between them is not the same everywhere
7. 00:46:332 (1) - Weird overlap again, you can try to move this to 374|195 for example
8. 00:47:895 (1) - Add a clap here?
9. Nothing else, this one looks good and personally is my favourite diff

1. 00:10:395 (3) - Maybe try to move the slidertail some pixels up, because having straight sliders like this is not really cool imo
2. 00:29:978 (1) - Move slidertail to 105|330, so the blanket is perfect
3. 00:37:895 (2,3) - Bad blanket again
4. 00:53:311 (1,2,1,2) - Again ^
5. 01:56:645 - You forgot to silence the spinner here
6. This diff is good, but please, those blankets, pay more attention...

1. Generally speaking, I think 1/2 distance between the last note and a spinner is not ok, since this is the easiest diff of the set. Try 1/1 distance instead
2. 00:36:645 (3) - Uhmmm, this can be confusing because there is a huge beat 1/4 earlier... Maybe you can try to replace the previous note and this with a slider who ends in 00:36:540 -
3. 00:37:061 - Add a note here?
4. 01:39:978 - It looks weird here because the slider ends on nothing. The strong beat is 1/4 earlier, you caould try something else to fix it maybe?
5. 01:53:311 (1) - Similar to 00:36:645 (3) - This song is silly lol
6. 01:56:645 - Silence spinner end?

00:37:061 - Add a note here? Since I replaced the last note with the slider I have to ignore this beat in order to make the next beat easier to hit on time
01:39:978 - It looks weird here because the slider ends on nothing. The strong beat is 1/4 earlier, you caould try something else to fix it maybe? Weird song, weird sliders. This part is something else and unless I get a suggestion from somebody on how to map this part to fit the easy/normal category I won't be touching it.
01:53:311 (1) - Similar to 00:36:645 (3) - This song is silly lol IKR. Same here.
01:56:645 - Silence spinner end? Sure

2. 00:02:061 (2,3) - Weird overlap fixed
3. 00:03:520 (1,1) - ^ fixed
4. 00:27:790 (4) - Prev: 0.71x / Next: 0.56x - This is weird whoops
5. 00:28:520 (2) - Move to 311|232 for a more regular pattern applied
6. 00:41:436 (1,1,1,1) - Sorry if I get too nazi, but if you look closely you can notice that these sliders are not spaced equally, the gap between them is not the same everywhere its fine, applied
7. 00:46:332 (1) - Weird overlap again, you can try to move this to 374|195 for example fixed
8. 00:47:895 (1) - Add a clap here? applied
9. Nothing else, this one looks good and personally is my favourite diff

1. Extra: 5,31 stars / Comfort: 7,69 stars. Of course you need at least an inbetween diff, or even two, depends on the spread
2. Not 100% sure about 1,59 and 3,09 between Normal and Hard

I am so god damn mad about all the spread comments I'm getting on this map. It's ridiculously hard to make a diff between Normal and Hard, and between Extra and Comfort, without it being utterly shit. If someone wants to try, give it a damn shot.

If you can't make it, it doesn't mean it's impossible. I patrially agree on the Extra-Comfort diff, but I'm sure a lot of people can make a 2* diff.

Extra

1. 00:27:061 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Why is the spacing in this stream completely random? This is one of those decelerating streams. It's not random, and since it's only 144 1/4, quite readable. I know it's readable, but the spacing you used here is completely random, even if it's decelerating. You could just make 0.65 > 0.60 > 0.55 > 0.50 > 0.45 and so on. At the moment you have 0.64 > 0.51 > 0.51 > 0.54 > 0.43 > 0.37 > 0.31 > 0.50 which is completely random, and in some parts the spacing even raises.
   
2. 00:36:228 (7) - Doesn't look really good, it's like a 2009/2010 slider lol lol maybe it's intended to be a bit weird looking since the music there is weird lol You can still make it weird without it completely looking like shit.

i feel really happy that i can actually pass that comfort difficulty lmao
Comfort diff BTW xd
00:13:936 (1,2,1,2,1,2,3) - hmmm, i find the original pattern easier to hit, this one kind of felt awkward to me Reverted. You're not the only person who hated the new setup.
00:15:707 (5,6) - i hit this but felt kinda awkward, maybe space these out a bit more You're right.
00:31:124 (1,2) - never once read this right, might just be me but ughh it just looks like it reads the other way around, prolly easier to read if you move the 2nd hit circle away from the slider its next to nvm, you fixed it just forgot to update xD
00:34:457 (1,2) - i found this fine but would prolly be easier to make the movement if ctrlg'd but wouldnt match the rest of the map i guess xd up to you
01:48:728 (3,4) - hmm, wouldnt this match rest of map if it was put on the slider end? It's meant to not match on purpose. The music here is literally broken and MISSING pieces it had earlier, so the patterns are a bit broken.
01:50:186 (2,3) - also kind of a bit hard to hit since 3 is so close to 2 in like a line so maybe move 3 to a sharper angle?
00:05:395 (1,2,3,4) - also this looks so weird lol compared to the square before it xD

well that was a fun map overall though

dude sometimes i wish i was axarious xd

Extra

00:44:353 (3) - Consider silencing the sliderend here? It does fit rhythmically but the hitsounds here with this sliderend included make it a bit too much, imo. I personally liked the silenced sliderend here when I tried it. I am a firm hater of silenced sliderends during parts of the map where they've got sound on the ends.
01:28:624 - Maybe put a circle at this time to fit the vocal chops here, since you already have (1) which is mapped to it. You could place the circle on top of (2) to keep it simple or do whatever you see fit mapping wise if you take this suggestion. The problem with that is that the vocal is actually on the 1/6 BEFORE the blue tick and it's extremely hard to make this readable at all. The vocals are not timed friendly at all.
01:35:082 (5,6) - Following the previous vocal chops as above that could have emphasis in the mapping here. A triple of some kind might work here. I can understand if you want to keep this the same for rhythm's sake as it works alright. Same issue as the other one.

There are couple of circle placements that I'm not personally fond of but can't say needs any changing. Difficult map to mod for me but I'll let other people talk about any other issues they find. gl Shiirn =]

i think you could change some of the 1/3s in this mapped to be much more spaced, right now nearly every 1/6 is overlapping completely
00:40:186 (1) - take this section for example, this spacing for the triple could be increased a lot so that they don't touch each other


00:27:061 (1) - this should be spaced a lot more, it looks very much like a 1/6 stream

all in all, very good map with a nice flow to it. The emphasised parts are perfectly done like 01:21:124 (1) and i loved 00:56:645 (1)

tbh you might as well make the ar to 10
also is slider tick 4 needed im pretty sure slider tick 2 would do just fine and make it so its not impossible to combo the map without slider breaking???? discussed on irc

also by the way 00:13:936 (1,2,1,2,1,2,3) - these aren't snapped correctly, some of them are off by 1 ms, idk if there's any more ill check

00:14:560 (3) - maybe add a slow slider here for the synth? gotta think about that one
00:27:895 (3,4) - that overlap on the 4th slider feels weird af maybe change it to this or something fiddled with it a bit
00:52:895 (1,2,1,2) - ctrl + g ing this looks pretty cool idk if you want to do that tho this causes anti-jumps that feel weird in the entire pattern
00:54:874 (2,3) - yo having this slider end on the main beat feels really awkward, maybe end the 2nd slider on the white tick and start the third one on the blue tick or smth fiddled with it a bit, i think it's way cooler
01:14:353 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - who a calm down man Moved a bit down. Biiiit less crazy.
01:18:207 (4) - make this more curved pls k
01:29:978 (1,2,3,4) - the first slider is fine in this but the rest of them is uhhh not following anything?? the second slider should be 1/6 if im hearing correctly This is really weird as the vocals are litearlly like 1/8 and 1/6 and even 1/12 but there is also an actual chime roll im trying to map instead. it's really confusing and idk what exactly to do with it
01:53:311 (1) - make it so the spinner end isnt loud af pls ty ok

ex

i still don't think slider tick 4 fits hereeeeeee

1. Spread feels really not nice between Extra and comfort, you will need to get more opinions.. personally I feel:
   Easy---Normal------Hard-----Insane-----Extra---------------Comfort
   but ask more opinions of course!

1. 00:06:801 (1) - unsnapped
2. 01:08:572 (5) - unsnapped
3. just use AR 10???? i really don't see why 9,9 lol.. bpm and the way is mapped already call for it
4. 00:16:020 (1) - man this slider shape looks really bad and unclean, I'm sure you can do it better, actually looks really old tbh
5. 00:20:186 (2) - whistle spam is really annoying to hear, you don't need to add it at every single spot, remove them atleast from the 1/8 ticks?
6. 00:22:686 (1,1) - TBH I can't really agree with those overlaps for obvious reasons, just try to don't hide it under the slider, at this speed is so hard notice at first play- there is 1 more I think
7. 00:26:020 (1) - 1/4 slider fit better the music clearly, there are more cases where this happen, probably you trying to follow some noise sound, but I believe following the beats its better, they are clear
8. 00:27:686 (1,2) - really need to be overlaped? I guess you could easily come with something better, ex:
   
   SPOILER

   
9. 00:30:395 (1,2,1,1,2,1,2,1,1) - can you explain how combos work at this and similar parts?
10. 00:33:520 from here to 00:34:249 - according to the music, should be a 1-2 1-2 1-2 1-2 pattern, instead you have an inconsistent one because you did end a slider in an active beat at 00:33:520 - anyways I really advice you to reword this rhythm to:
    
11. 00:38:520 (3) - This slider shape looks ugly from my point of view, maybe try something else?
12. 00:44:665 00:48:520 (1,3) - cute lol
13. 00:49:145 (1) - try to blank better with 00:48:520 (1) -
14. 00:47:582 (4,5) - did you miss the triplet on purpose? I mean following the melody should be a circle in 00:47:547 (4) - and other at 00:47:617 (5) - like you did previously
15. 00:51:749 (1) - i feel this and other blue ticks new combos don't make any sense with the music, for example doesn't make more sense that instead of having a NC on 00:51:749 (1) - add it on 00:51:853 (2) - where the new melody its starting? there are more cases check by your own
16. 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1,1) - this is really cool .
17. 01:05:186 (3) - according to your previous combo pattern at 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1,1,1) - should be at NC in 01:05:186 (3) - following the previous one at 00:58:520 (1) -
18. 01:01:332 (2) - add NC? fit really nice with music, if you do then add it as well at 01:08:207 (2) -
19. 01:07:061 (1,1) - don't stack perfectly at this bpm stacks and overlaps are super hard to read, I did the same mistake at my 266 bpm map

1. 00:04:249 whys is this acitve beat being ignored, according to the music you shouldn't, a really easy way to fix without having a weird polarity issue would be to:
   
2. 00:06:228 - similar as above, this need a click action according to the music, same in 00:09:561 - check others by your own, tbh such strong beats shouldn't be slider tails, mainly in an extra diff
3. 00:16:228 - similar as above, even your NC make more sense there, just hear the melody and you will notice.
4. 00:22:895 etc ^ rhythms can be alot better at certain places
5. 00:25:186 (1) - what is the reason behind the single combo? tbh you can just remove it, instead of create ann unnecessary HP boost
6. 00:27:061 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - reduce the spacing consistent, actually it fluctuate too much
7. 00:27:895 (1,1,1,1) - don't need to spam NCs just the first one is enough, the other 3 NCs just create unnecessary HP boost
8. 00:29:561 active beats going again at slider tails
9. 00:31:124 (2) - you can create a better blanket with 00:30:811 (1,3) -
10. 00:32:895 (4,1) - Nazi, blanket can be improved
11. 00:37:895 same as 00:29:561 -
12. 00:46:853 (1) - this isn't NC on comfort diff, why it is here, just remove it and maybe you are missing a NC in 00:48:311 (5) -
13. 00:52:374 (4,5) - make this a bit more close, so the spacing is a bit more different than in 00:52:478 (5,1) -
14. 01:09:561 (1) - I'm sure you can come with a better slider shape, current one isn't that good IMO.
15. 01:18:520 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - rhythm its really not nice, try to map the strong beats as slider head or circles - 01:18:728 - 01:19:145 -
16. 01:19:978 (1,2) - jump its too much 2 doesn't have any high pitch, tbh is an almost inaudible beat, so the jump its really overdone
17. 01:21:020 (5) - add NC, be consistent with 01:21:228 (1,2,1,2) -
18. 01:24:040 (2,3,1) - spacing
19. 01:27:374 (4,5,6) - same bit more readable tho

1. 00:03:520 (1,1) - don't need to be that close, they will look better with a bit more spacing between them
2. 00:02:061 (2,1) - ^^
3. 00:12:790 (4,1) - nah make them overlap, this play super bad, imo and doesn't fit with the actually difficulty of this mapset
4. 01:44:561 (3,1) - something went wrong here uh
5. 01:51:228 (1,1) - ^^^^^^
   
   Edit part:
   
6. 00:22:061 I'd highly suggest looking at the rhythm in this map again, there so many active beats that end on slider ends (worst is that those sliders star in really pasive beats)
   
7. About combos, lets take a look: 00:21:749 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - and 00:23:311 (1,2,3) - idk get how your comboing work, according to the music, I'd add a NC in 00:22:686 (6) - and remove the one at 00:23:311 (1) - , there are more cases were the comboing its super inconsistent, for example 00:20:811 (5) - vs 00:24:145 (1) - , try to check the whole diff and try to be more consistent with it
8. 00:39:457 (2) - head and tail are mapped to strong sounds, that's regulary fine, but the repeat of this slider is mapped to a really different beat making the slider weird to play, I'd just add a 1/1 slider as extra and comfort diff, follow the hold sound is the best idea here tho
9. 00:46:332 (1) - remove nc, melody is the same as the previous slider, the place where your NC should be is : 00:46:853 -, but then again you leave that active beat as slider tail
10. 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1) - No Sv changes why the combo spam? just creating unnecesary HP boost, there is nothing hard to read in the pattern, (even tho I'd suggest playing with SV a bit here)
11. 00:59:978 (1,1,1,1,1,1) - ^
12. 01:03:311 (3,1,1,1,1,1) - ^^^ you don't even have a NC on 3 here, even tho is the first beat on the melody change
13. 01:06:645 (2,1,1,1,1,1,1) - ^
14. 01:39:874 (1,3) - a bit hard to read when playing, try to manual stack it (move some grids away)

1. 00:02:895 (1,2,1,1) - again the combos without real reason to be, mind explaining why? personally I think 00:03:520 (1) - is totallt unnecessary
2. 00:06:228 (4,5) - this don't have NC here, but the same rhythm at 00:02:895 (1,2) - have, why?
3. 00:14:978 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - again your comboing its weird for not apparent reason, anyways I don't want to point them all, just recheck and make them consistent
4. 00:19:040 (5) - this slider is ending in a really inaudible or almost inaudible beat, would make alot more sense if you end it at 00:19:353 - also you will avoid the weird polarity issue by doing this.
5. 00:08:311 (1,3) - not a fan of those sliders, thhy looks like really old and not good shaped

1. looks fine to me

1. 00:37:061 - don't ignore this, its so strong in te music

   but ask more opinions of course! Most players and modders have no problem with the spread issues between Extra and Comfort. Anything in between would just feel really awkward as it'd either be a buffed up version of extra or a heavily nerfed Comfort, there are no good anchor points for a difficulty between these other than massively nerfing the spacing of comfort (which would just be superfluous)

Comfort

1. 00:06:801 (1) - unsnapped
2. 01:08:572 (5) - unsnapped
3. just use AR 10???? i really don't see why 9,9 lol.. bpm and the way is mapped already call for it All of these done, AR10 done.
4. 00:16:020 (1) - man this slider shape looks really bad and unclean, I'm sure you can do it better, actually looks really old tbh What? it's a linear slider. I made it a bit less jerky....
5. 00:20:186 (2) - whistle spam is really annoying to hear, you don't need to add it at every single spot, remove them atleast from the 1/8 ticks? Sure, why not... it's just soft whistle either way.
6. 00:22:686 (1,1) - TBH I can't really agree with those overlaps for obvious reasons, just try to don't hide it under the slider, at this speed is so hard notice at first play- there is 1 more I think I have never, ever, ever, ever seen a player capable of playing this difficulty miss this note, on first run or otherwise. This may be due to the fact that players of this caliber pretty much for sure have custom skins, but because this is actually very structured already ( 00:22:478 (7,1,1,2) - all of these blanket eachother either with slider tracks or approach circles) I would really, really like it to be kept as it is. If forced I can move the note somewhere else.
7. 00:26:020 (1) - 1/4 slider fit better the music clearly, there are more cases where this happen, probably you trying to follow some noise sound, but I believe following the beats its better, they are clear Both this and 00:25:186 (1) - are emphasizing the single usage of the instruments placed there - they're brief holds rather than just taps (which 1/4 sliders are). I want, and players do experience, the difference between a 3/8 brief hold slider and a 1/4 "extended tap" slider. These have played very well and I have received a lot of support for them.
8. 00:27:686 (1,2) - really need to be overlaped? I guess you could easily come with something better, ex: Overlap Fixed.
9. 00:30:395 (1,2,1,1,2,1,2,1,1) - can you explain how combos work at this and similar parts? Readability. These new combos are here purely to simplify readability for players at these ridiculous velocities - a single combo will lead to complicated, overlapping track lines and confusing combo numbering. By having them all be different colors and distinctly separated in terms of patterning, it is sight readable that the player can expect the back-and-forth hops. This applies to all of the later combo setups I use 1,2 in.
10. 00:33:520 from here to 00:34:249 - according to the music, should be a 1-2 1-2 1-2 1-2 pattern, instead you have an inconsistent one because you did end a slider in an active beat at 00:33:520 - anyways I really advice you to reword this rhythm to: There is actually a 3-point pattern in the music as well as an overlapping offbeat set. The way these notes are set up are to emphasize the offbeat hopping. I have not heard any playability concerns about this pattern, and to me it does what it sets out to do. With a piece of music like this - clearly designed for a game with more than five independent buttons to press - I need to make sacrifices here and there. This fits the later on 1,2 offbeat patterns to maintain playability.
    
11. 00:38:520 (3) - This slider shape looks ugly from my point of view, maybe try something else? I mean they're not exactly meant to be art exhibitions...
12. 00:44:665 00:48:520 (1,3) - cute lol
13. 00:49:145 (1) - try to blank better with 00:48:520 (1) - tried
14. 00:47:582 (4,5) - did you miss the triplet on purpose? I mean following the melody should be a circle in 00:47:547 (4) - and other at 00:47:617 (5) - like you did previously ??? I have no idea what you're suggestiong here. There is nothing in the music that implies a 1/8 triple nor a set of three 1/4 notes. It is an offbeat pattern and it plays extremely well.
15. 00:51:749 (1) - i feel this and other blue ticks new combos don't make any sense with the music, for example doesn't make more sense that instead of having a NC on 00:51:749 (1) - add it on 00:51:853 (2) - where the new melody its starting? there are more cases check by your own A lot of the combo color fiddling has been done with the intent of making the map as readable as possible - with how fast these patterns are and with the extreme speed they race at the player at, I've probably messed up here and there at making other new combo sets consistent, and I've looked at them for so long the yolk normal to me. I'd love if people could give new combo suggestions along those lines such as this.
16. 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1,1) - this is really cool .
17. 01:05:186 (3) - according to your previous combo pattern at 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1,1,1) - should be at NC in 01:05:186 (3) - following the previous one at 00:58:520 (1) -
18. 01:01:332 (2) - add NC? fit really nice with music, if you do then add it as well at 01:08:207 (2) -
19. 01:07:061 (1,1) - don't stack perfectly at this bpm stacks and overlaps are super hard to read, I did the same mistake at my 266 bpm map Because this is the fourth iteration of the exact same beat pattern, I found that no matter what I did or where I put that slider and no matter how hidden it was, players hit it. This is the fourth time in a row that this beat pattern is set up, so players not only expect it, they're doing it almost entirely unconsciously at this point. If there is a ranking rule that requires it to be visible at these velocities, then i'll move it but as it is I think it's really neat.

Extra:

1. 00:04:249 whys is this acitve beat being ignored, according to the music you shouldn't, a really easy way to fix without having a weird polarity issue would be to: Sure why not.
2. 00:06:228 - similar as above, this need a click action according to the music, same in 00:09:561 - check others by your own, tbh such strong beats shouldn't be slider tails, mainly in an extra diff Most of the time in this difficulty I am making the map less dense by having beats on slider starts and endings. if you want every single strong beat to be emphasized, you're going to end up with a tiny-spaced Comfort. Some beats have to be sacrificed to the Slider Ending God, and thus some are.
3. 00:16:228 - similar as above, even your NC make more sense there, just hear the melody and you will notice.
4. 00:22:895 etc ^ rhythms can be alot better at certain places
5. 00:25:186 (1) - what is the reason behind the single combo? tbh you can just remove it, instead of create ann unnecessary HP boost Anyone who tells you that new combo fiddling like this fucks with the HP setup is lying. HP is something I don't even consider in a map - if they completely lose rhythm they're going to fail either way and whether or not they get "bursts" of hp means absolutely nothing to the map's playability. Also, these have new combos to emphasize the different instrument that play exactly once in the entire track. (Seriously camellia?)
6. 00:27:061 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - reduce the spacing consistent, actually it fluctuate too much changed
7. 00:27:895 (1,1,1,1) - don't need to spam NCs just the first one is enough, the other 3 NCs just create unnecessary HP boost if I hear the term "hp boost" one more damn time. this is for aesthetics, not for hp fuckery. I will change it if forced.
8. 00:29:561 active beats going again at slider tails God of Slider Endings
9. 00:31:124 (2) - you can create a better blanket with 00:30:811 (1,3) -
10. 00:32:895 (4,1) - Nazi, blanket can be improved k
11. 00:37:895 same as 00:29:561 - God of Slider Endings
12. 00:46:853 (1) - this isn't NC on comfort diff, why it is here, just remove it and maybe you are missing a NC in 00:48:311 (5) - New combo here is to alert the player to the fact that this is a 1/6 combo. It's much easier for a player to read "1,2,3,4" and realize it's a quad than "2,3,4,5".
13. 00:52:374 (4,5) - make this a bit more close, so the spacing is a bit more different than in 00:52:478 (5,1) - Quite different already but sure.
14. 01:09:561 (1) - I'm sure you can come with a better slider shape, current one isn't that good IMO. stop killing my mapper spirit
15. 01:18:520 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - rhythm its really not nice, try to map the strong beats as slider head or circles - 01:18:728 - 01:19:145 - Seriously? are we listening to the same track? The slider starts and the slider ends are completely the same intensity to me, and the 1/8 triplet ending with a slider is vital to playability. It allows players who alternate to hit the 1/8 triple as well as players who singletap the rest of the map to hit it more comfortably. Not every strong beat can have a note.
16. 01:19:978 (1,2) - jump its too much 2 doesn't have any high pitch, tbh is an almost inaudible beat, so the jump its really overdone The jump isn't emphasizing the note, it's emphasizing the noise at the end of the initial slider. Players almost never miss these because it makes sense.
17. 01:21:020 (5) - add NC, be consistent with 01:21:228 (1,2,1,2) - k
18. 01:24:040 (2,3,1) - spacing ok moved 2 a bit closer to have it be fairly even
19. 01:27:374 (4,5,6) - same bit more readable tho Sliderends and starts allow for conventional spacing to be thrown out the window if done in a manner that allows the music to tell the player when you should hit the next beat, more than the spacing or approach circle. This is part of how freestyle spacing works.

Collab Hard:

1. 00:02:895 (1,2,1,1) - again the combos without real reason to be, mind explaining why? personally I think 00:03:520 (1) - is totallt unnecessary I use new combos not just to reset the arbitrary number on the note, but for color changes to emphasize instrument changes or readability. HP concerns are something I don't even think about for a second. The HP system already makes no sense for this game and especially doesn't matter when people always want to full combo or retry. HP concerns again, mean nothing to me, so I'll use new combos for other, more interesting functions.
2. 00:06:228 (4,5) - this don't have NC here, but the same rhythm at 00:02:895 (1,2) - have, why? oversight, thanks for letting me know. NC'd.
3. 00:14:978 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - again your comboing its weird for not apparent reason, anyways I don't want to point them all, just recheck and make them consistent
4. 00:19:040 (5) - this slider is ending in a really inaudible or almost inaudible beat, would make alot more sense if you end it at 00:19:353 - also you will avoid the weird polarity issue by doing this. That is not how polarity works. Especially regarding slider endings. There is no polarity issue as there is plenty of time for the player to adjust to the new beat patterning in the song, especially since the next note actually does, indeed, start on a downbeat. While it is true that the slider ends on a quiet beat, I felt that a longer slider would be even more awkward for gameplay and honestly not do very much else. There's meant to be a pause but I felt that simply having a note instead wasn't enough to emphasize the instrument used.
5. 00:08:311 (1,3) - not a fan of those sliders, thhy looks like really old and not good shaped Oh well.

Shiirn wrote:

I have to ask: Do people really think about HP while mapping or modding? Because you shouldn't, I feel. If someone can mod a map that creatively uses new combos for functions such as readability and instrument emphasis, and say "but this screws with the HP!", why aren't they looking at other maps where the harder sections don't have new combos more often to allow for misses to regain HP more quickly? Because that's stupid. HP doesn't matter, especially when most maps nowadays have HP drain settings so low that you'd need to miss several notes in a row to fail anyway.

   Edit part:
   
6. 00:22:061 I'd highly suggest looking at the rhythm in this map again, there so many active beats that end on slider ends (worst is that those sliders star in really pasive beats) I tried my best trying to follow the drum elements, since its the most common element i work with, while trying to map the other elements. I can see that the slider ends are landing on important beats, but I find it well fit there. It has its... own sort of charm.
7. About combos, lets take a look: 00:21:749 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - and 00:23:311 (1,2,3) - idk get how your comboing work, according to the music, I'd add a NC in 00:22:686 (6) - and remove the one at 00:23:311 (1) - , there are more cases were the comboing its super inconsistent, for example 00:20:811 (5) - vs 00:24:145 (1) - , try to check the whole diff and try to be more consistent with it I'm going to do a recheck on my map look for NC inconsistencies. Reason why its like this, is because I don't particularly pay attention to NC while mapping ^ ^;;
8. 00:39:457 (2) - head and tail are mapped to strong sounds, that's regulary fine, but the repeat of this slider is mapped to a really different beat making the slider weird to play, I'd just add a 1/1 slider as extra and comfort diff, follow the hold sound is the best idea here tho fixed
9. 00:46:332 (1) - remove nc, melody is the same as the previous slider, the place where your NC should be is : 00:46:853 -, but then again you leave that active beat as slider tail removed 00:46:332 (2) - NC and made 00:46:645 (1) - NC
10. 00:56:645 (1,1,1,1,1) - No Sv changes why the combo spam? just creating unnecesary HP boost, there is nothing hard to read in the pattern, (even tho I'd suggest playing with SV a bit here)
11. 00:59:978 (1,1,1,1,1,1) - ^
12. 01:03:311 (3,1,1,1,1,1) - ^^^ you don't even have a NC on 3 here, even tho is the first beat on the melody change
13. 01:06:645 (2,1,1,1,1,1,1) - ^ fixed up all of them.
14. 01:39:874 (1,3) - a bit hard to read when playing, try to manual stack it (move some grids away) somewhat, changed it.

1. 00:59:978 (1,2) - This transition isn't good because players will want to cut corners on the sliders instead of playing it through unlike all the other sliders. With patterns like this you want players to play through the whole slider and a bit more to get that emphasis going.
2. 01:06:645 (1,2,3,4,5) - Same can apply to the stuff here, where you kind of want to break the directional flow of the slider inorder to have a better time playing the next slider. Stuff like : 01:00:395 (2,3,4) - play really well though, because players can go through the entire motion of the slider without experiencing a flowbreak onto the next slider's path. This really draws out the emphasis you get from the slider-motions, Try and reflect this kind of motion if you can. Stuff like: 00:56:645 (1,2,3,4,5) - Is also really nice for the same reasons .
3. 01:30:186 (2) - I wish you could Ctrl+G this instead cuz it would flow a lot better coming out of slider 1. But you'd have to do some pattern changes (i think its worth it).

1. 00:08:727 (2,3,4) - I would just keep the spacing the same. There are too few circles here for that decelerating stream thing to make sense here. It just looks out of place rather than a design element unless you have like 4-5+ circles imo.
2. 00:27:895 (1,1,1,1) - Im actually surprised you didnt do anything over the top here lol.
3. 00:33:520 (1,2) - While there are two beats here, the one on 00:33:624 (2) - is really feint in comparison. I think this pattern is better two two sets of beat pairings, rather than 3. Try making this a slider instead.
4. 00:35:256 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I really recommend making these all NC's because it gets rid of the follow points in between circles and it forces players to be more aware of their rhythm. (I would apply this to other diffs that are Insane+ too)
5. 00:52:686 (1,2,3) - Fix the spacing here?

With patterns like this you want players to play through the whole slider and a bit more to get that emphasis going. The transitions for these are fine due to the extremely large sliderball area we have for our cursor to be in. They're all very close together and there is plenty of leeway in every direction for players to have their cursor between these notes.

I'll new combo them.

I like this map, but I don't Comfort is ready for ranking in its current state. There's a lot of things that don't flow well and need to be polished. Lots of the placements look random and could be cleaned up quite a bit, and there's also many places in the map where you lose track of the melody and start placing objects on weird beats. I don't know if that is intentional, but if it is I feel that it detracts from the map.

Here's a few examples (I don't want to do a full mod right now, but if you want me to go over the map in more detail with you, let me know in-game)

00:27:686 (1,2,3,4) - I don't know if it's just me, but this is very awkward to play, especially when 2keying. I would make the spacing in this pattern simpler, or change the rhythm all together I've never seen this considered awkward to play. It's basically juast an 8-note 144 stream followed by alternating brief holds. If anything, this pattern is way easier to alternate than it is for singletappers since the later end of it basically forces alternation.

00:31:332 (6,7) - the 6 should be 1/2 and the 7 1/1 to follow the melody better. The current rhythm is awkward for the player to follow and detracts from the structure of the map These two notes are following the bass as it fades in and out. The rhythm is fine. The structure is perfectly fine.

00:32:374 (3,4) - the 3 should be a slider here as well. I know you're following beats that are technically in the music, but if you're going to map mostly to the melody - keep it consistent. It gives the player a better feel of the music and makes things less awkward. I either recommend making the 3 a 1/2 slider and the 4 a note, or just ditching 4 completely and making 3 a 1/1 slider I feel like you don't know what you're trying to say here. This entire section is following the bass with a secondary focus on the instruments below it. This is what most maps do...

00:33:311 (3) - this doesn't really make much sense musically. the long note starts on the 2 before it, so either make that a 1/1 slider or follow a different rhythm like this:

Okay, so many things are wrong about that particular note of yours. 00:33:415 - this is a tiny ass wub right here, but you want me to have a click on it? When the current rhythm is quite adeptly following the really weird bass patterning the music is? I dunno, man. I really want to be objective and rational with this here and not sound like a hater but none of this is actually making any sense to me.

anyways just a few things to point out that the map definitely isn't ready. I think it needs a lot more work on it. Message me in-game if you want more opinions.

@shiirn mind explaining me a few things? (extra diff)
00:16:436 (2,3) - i literally vomit everytime when i see this,why dont you just simply stack? Blame the people that cry "hard to read" when it's stacked. Normally I stack them.
00:36:228 (1) - i dont even know what to say bout this slider. it just hurts in my eyes. you should use a simple curved slider not this lmao Weird noise, weird slider. It's not like it's all that ugly, it just has a weird bend. What's your problem?
