Heyo~ NM via PM req.
I’m gonna stop here for now before my mod gets too long. The idea is there, but there are still stuff that requires a rework. Your spacings/jumps are inconsistent: At some places you add jumps and at others you don’t add jumps but the beat is exactly the same as the one for which you added a jump. The aesthetics can also be improved. There are a lot of places where there are near-blankets, example: 02:16:726 (1,2) – but they really don’t look good. Making them proper blankets would look much better.
Personally I don’t like some of the straight sliders and their placements. Examples are: 00:17:887 (1) - 00:40:145 (5) - 00:41:113 (2) - 00:44:016 (2) - 00:46:532 (3) - 01:13:629 (2) – etc. The main reason is the awkward flow that they create. The NC’s are inconsistent, especially in the kiai times. Please go over them and ensure they are consistent and placed at the places where they are supported. I pointed out a few in my mod.
I guess aesthetics can still be improved in this diff. Like blankets.
Mostly the Lunatic diff requires work. If you have any questions regarding my mod, feel free to poke me in-game.
Good Luck~
Lunatic:
- 00:17:306 (3) –Consider spacing this slider out a bit more because of the distinctive beat on the slider’s head.
- 00:17:887 (1) –The shape and placement of this slider doesn’t create the best flow because of the straight horizontal flow and it can be uncomfortable to play. Plus it doesn’t look good aesthetically because of the awkward blanket. Try something like this instead:
- 00:21:371 (2) –To emphasize the beat on this circle more, consider nerfing the jump here: 00:21:177 (1) – since the beat on this circle isn’t that important and 00:21:371 (2,3) – has to stand out more imo.
Something like above. - 00:23:500 (6) –Since the beat here is so strong a NC would fit nicely imo. So perhaps add NC here and remove it here: 00:23:887 (1) –
- 00:26:790 (6) –Consider adding NC? Would fit in nicely.
- 00:41:113 (2) –Consider doing something like this instead:
Would be better flow. - 00:42:274 (1,2,3) –Make the spacing here consistent. I would actually increase the spacing on 00:43:435 (3) – since there’s a strong beat.
- 00:44:984 (6,7) –I would actually add a bit more spacing here to accommodate that build-up in the vocals.
- 00:45:371 (1,2) –The spacing here feels inconsistent with 00:42:274 (1,2) – and the vocals still have a bit of similarity so I feel this have to be consistent. My suggestion would be to add a bit more spacing here: 00:42:274 (1,2) –
- 00:46:532 (3) –Adding a bit more spacing here also can’t hurt since it would be a good idea to emphasize that beat on the head more. It’s also a bit weird for me that the spacing here: 00:46:919 (1) – is bigger than the spacing here: 00:46:532 (3) – but (3) has a stronger beat so it should actually be the other way around imo. I can say the same thing here: 00:41:113 (2,3) –
- 00:47:306 (3) –Why so little spacing for a strong beat? It’s also inconsistent with 00:48:080 (6) – which has much larger spacing for the same beat.
- 00:51:467 –I can hear a beat here in the background so you can actually add a note here to form a stream.
- 00:51:564 (1,2) –Please make a blanket here. It will look much neater.
- 00:53:500 (3) –The jump should be here and not here: 00:53:306 (2) – since the strong beat is on (3) So perhaps something like this:
- 00:54:274 (3) –More spacing here would be appreciated as well.
- 00:55:822 (3) -^
- 00:56:597 (2) -^, etc. Not gonna point them all out.
- 00:57:080 –I listened to this at 25% and couldn’t hear a beat in the background. Remove this note please.
- 01:03:177 (3) –If you want you can map out those fast sounds before the stream. It’s a bit weird not to map them out since they can be heard so clearly. It’s snapped to 1/8, so something like this:
- 01:05:113 –There’s a very important beat here so why didn’t you map it out? Highly consider placing a note here.
- 01:06:661 -^, etc. Not gonna point them all out.
- Go over your NC’s in the first kiai please. Some of them are inconsistent and others don’t make sense. I’ll point out some: 01:18:855 (1) –Remove NC here and add NC here: 01:19:242 (2) – Then remove NC here: 01:20:403 (1) – and add NC here: 01:20:790 (3) – Remove NC here: 01:21:371 (1) – etc. If you’re struggling with this, feel free to poke me in-game.
- 01:28:726 (1,2) –Rather make these sliders’ shapes similar. It looks weird if they aren’t.

Hard:
- 00:15:371 (4) –Don’t curve sliders like these too much. They tend to look ugly.
- 00:44:984 (2) –Ctrl+G this slider. Better flow since it is circular.
- 00:52:145 (2) –Move this down a bit since it’s almost touching 00:51:177 (4) – So for aesthetics reasons.
- 01:22:726 (2,3) –Improve this blanket.
- 01:38:403 (2) –Placing this circle somewhere here: X:452 Y:352 would support better flow.
- 01:42:661 (5) –You can add a small jump here to emphasize that strong finish beat.
- 03:23:306 (3,4,5) –Make sure the spacing is consistent here. (5) is slightly touching (4)
- 04:02:016 (5) –You can also add a bit of a jump here.

Stella’s Normal:
- Uncheck widescreen support.
- 02:45:371 (4) –This circle is slightly grazing the bottom edge of the screen. To be safe lift it upwards a bit.
- 01:31:048 (2) –Move this slider downwards a bit to about: X:88 Y:236 for better flow.
- 02:12:080 (3) –Not really a nice placement since the body of the slider is almost completely hidden by 02:11:113 (2) – which can disrupt visualization for beginners. Try something like this instead:
- 02:11:113 (2,4) –Please avoid this overlap. It’ll look neater. So just move (4) downwards a bit.
- 02:13:242 (5) –Consider changing this note into a short slider like 02:12:855 (4) – to catch this vocal: 02:13:435 –
- 02:35:693 (4) –Just move this slider a bit more to the left so the body of the slider is visible.
- 02:41:887 (4) -^
