bold = important issue that should definitely be fixed
normal = normal issue that i think should probably be fixed
italic = subjective pattern suggestion that might improve the map
i hope this helps and you can consider the bold suggestions at least.normal = normal issue that i think should probably be fixed
italic = subjective pattern suggestion that might improve the map
- 02:22:529 (1,2,3,4) -
02:23:862 (18,19,20,21) -
02:25:195 (35,36,37,38) -
02:26:529 (52,53,54,55) - for these quads there is no 1/6 in the music. Normally improvising some 1/6 wouldn't be a problem if it improves the flow of the beatmap and goes somewhat well with the music, which these ones would normally do, since they emphasize the start of the repeating melody. HOWEVER these 1/6 don't go well here because they take away the impact of the actual 1/6 rythms (or rythms that can be interpreted as such) that you can hear in the music in the later sections of the stream.
02:27:862 (69,70,71,72) - starting from here you can quietly hear the wooshing sound build up, which gets more intense at 02:30:529 (103,104,105,106) - , where the frequency of the 1/6 quads increases until it reaches it's maximum at 02:31:862 (121,122,123,124) - where you have 4 1/6 quads to end off the stream.
The main issue here is that the frequency of 1/6 is the same for the whole beginning of the stream, where the wooshing sound isn't existent yet to the part where the wooshing sound actually starts. Therefore i would strongly suggest deleting the first 4 1/6 quads that i pointed out here to give a lot more impact toward the end of the stream. - 02:45:195 - i feel like the usage of the doubles in this kiai could be improved a bit.
02:45:695 (88,89) - you can ctrl G this doublet, since the sound at 02:45:779 - is pretty low and it would also contrast better with the next suggestions that i have for this part
02:47:029 (100,101) - you can ctrl G this doublet, since there is a higher sound at 02:47:112 - which is emphasized poorly by the kd
02:48:362 (112,113) - ^
02:49:695 (124,125) - ^
02:50:862 (135) - change to d, since it's a pretty low sound and the oo triplet would flow better with the xo ox/xo xo triplets behind it
02:51:279 (138,139) - ctrl G this to be consistent with the first suggestion i have for this part (even if you don't follow the first suggestion you should at least ctrl G 02:51:029 (136,137) - and 02:51:279 (138,139) - to be consistent with the way you have it as it is now, since the music is the same here)
02:52:195 (147) - same as 135
02:52:362 (148,149) - ctrl G for the same reason as the other ones like this i mentioned
02:53:529 (159) - same as 135 and 147
02:53:695 (160,161) - 02:53:945 (162,163) - ctrl G, refer to the parts before to keep consistency
02:54:862 (171) - change to d
02:55:029 (172,173) - 02:55:279 (174,175) - ctrl G
02:56:612 (187,188) - ctrl G
02:57:195 (192) - change to k, 02:57:445 (194) - change to d, since the first doublet is to a very high sound and the second is to a pretty low one, also to contrast with the next 2 doublets since they are different sounds and for the sake of variety without breaking consistency they should be mapped differently
02:58:612 (205,207) - ^
02:59:029 (208,209) - ctrl G, consistency with the last one
02:58:612 (205,207) - same as the last ones
02:59:945 (217,219) - ^
03:00:362 (220,221) - ctrl G 03:00:612 (222,223) - ctrl G
03:01:279 (230,232) - same as earlier
03:01:945 (235,236) - ctrl G
03:02:612 (242,244) - same as earlier
03:03:029 (245,246) - ctrl G
03:03:945 (254,256) - same as earlier
03:04:362 (257,258) - ctrl G
Basically the inconsistencies between the doublets in this part make it very confusing for players. Even if you don't follow my exact pattern suggestions please rethink the way you mapped the doublets in this part and make the parts that sound the same in the music with the same doublets and keep it consistent. - 03:17:529 - in this part you mapped stuff somewhat the wrong way round, since the pitches go the opposit way as you mapped them
03:17:529 (391,392) - ctrl G, 03:17:529 - high pitch, 03:17:695 - low pitch
03:18:029 (393,394) - k, high pitch 03:18:362 (395) - d, low pitch. you can also make this d k d if you want a bit more contrast between the next patterns and to be consistent with what you did at 03:22:029 (408,409,410) - 03:23:362 (413,414,415) - since it sounds the same here
03:18:862 (396,397) - ctrl G
03:19:362 (398,399,400) - k k d here either way, since this one is a higher pitch than the last one and you mapped it as k k d at 03:24:696 (418,419,420) - too
03:26:195 (424,425) - ctrl G to make k k d here too, since that's how the melody goes and you did the same at 03:20:695 (403,404,405) - - 03:52:779 (161) - maybe change this to d for some nice pattern variety (if you don't wanna do this one you can change the previous ddkkd one instead)
03:58:112 (207) - ^ - 04:11:695 - tbh i'm kinda fine with the 1/6 in this stream, since they do a decent job of emphasizing the start of the repeated main melody here and don't really overshadow anything else. I think cutting the stream and deleting the 1/6 would probably be a safer option that more people might agree with, but tbh i'm fine with it as it is.
