Hello, M4M :3
normal-hitclap2 and soft-hitclap ends in a weird way, you should make a sort of fade.
normal-hitfinish2 makes a strange noise at the end (maybe it's only me ?) so you should fix it
The OD is maybe quite extreme, even though I'm not an expert in these kind of diffs
That's it, good luck :3

- 00:15:729 (2) - I suggest to use a weirder shape, as the sound is quite different, while I would recommended not to have a weird shape for 00:16:467 (3) - to reflect the sound
- 00:16:467 (3,4) - These kind of overlap (the head is in the slider's shape) are quite ugly (at least for me), so I'd suggest to move (4) upper. I also suggest to increase a bit (4)'s curve, since a lack of curve isn't really pretty for long sliders
- 00:24:320 (4,1) - I think (4) should be stacked on (1)'s tail. It's a good idea to stack it with a red anchor but here the tail is really too much close to (4).
- 00:28:950 (3) - Only my opinion, but I think this shape is pretty ugly. Plus (3)'s head could be stacked with 00:28:470 (2) -'s head, then you would have the same movement than with 00:27:618 (1) - as the sounds are quite similar except that 00:28:950 - last a long time (so it's emphasized by the slider)
- 00:53:342 (1,2,3) - This pattern kinda lacks of geometry or something to make it prettier. I think the distance snap between (1,3) and (1,2) should be the same. Also, I think having a wide angle like 00:54:231 (1,2,3) - is what's making this pattern not really pretty. Another suggestion is to stack (1,2) (since it's 2 similar sounds) and having a big jump between (2) and (3)
- 00:53:787 (1,2,3,4,5) - The distance snap is quite weird here. It doesn't looks intentional, and if it was, you should make a more important difference of distances
- 00:55:676 (2,2,2,2) - I think they shoul be stacked with (1) (the previous circle), since these aren't the same sound as 00:55:231 (2) -. Plus, having them stacked would emphasize the loud sound of the slider (3) for each combo.
- 00:57:787 (9) - The red anchor is useless if it is too much close to the tail, it makes the slider quite ugly. In fact I see the beatmap have a certain style (which reflects a lot the metal style) but I still think this one should have its red anchor more at the middle
- 00:58:564 (6) - I think this circle should be unstacked but not too far from (5) as the sound isn't the same as 00:58:453 -
- 01:04:898 (6) - Could be 2 1/4 sliders since there's a sound from the main melody both at 01:04:898 - and 01:05:009 -
- 01:05:120 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - You should unstack them, as the sound on the stacked circle isn't the same one as on the first circle. I suggest to use the same distance snap as 01:05:787 (1,2) - so it would make a pattern
- 01:07:231 (2) - Should also be unstacked as the sound on (2) is as strong as the sounds on (1) and (3) so it's better to emphasize it with a jump
- 01:07:564 (1,2,3) - This pattern is a lot harder than the patterns you had before. I think you should make something easier here, but increasing the distance of the jumps until 01:10:676 (1,2,3) - that can be extreme to emphasize this crescendo
- 01:10:899 (3,1) - This overlap is a bit odd. Though I think the fact of not having this circle near to 01:10:899 (3) -'s head is a good thing since it emphasize the note on 01:11:342 - (same for 02:58:898 (3,1) -)
- 01:11:564 (2,6,7) - I suggest to have a perfect triangle, for visuals
- 01:14:676 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - I think you should change the direction/angle for every new combo, like you made for 01:13:787 (1,2,3,4) - so it will be funnier to play and will be more representative of the song
- 01:18:009 (5,9) - Perhaps new combo ? There's a sound on these circles that would justify it
- 01:18:453 (1,2) - This jump is a bit extreme compared to how loud the sound is. Plus, I think you could unstack 01:18:676 (2,3) - since they are as loud as each other, and since 01:18:898 (4,5,6,7) - are stacked with different sounds pattern and represent the song
- 01:26:453 - This part is quite hard to mod because the song is quite chaotic. Just beware to make a difference between 1/2 sliders and those 2 stacked circles. The differnce feel a bit random, since for exemple 01:28:120 (4,5,6) - there isn't any voice here, only instrumental, so it's not really enough intense to use circles compared to moments when you have voice. Plus you have moments when 2 circles would be better, like at 01:34:898 (4) -
- 01:31:342 (4,5,6) - You could use another rhythm to fit the voice since it is quite different over there. Same for 01:46:897 (4,5) -
- 01:37:564 (4) - I think it should be the same shape than 01:37:120 (1) - with a symmetry. The pattern would be prettier imo
- 01:54:453 (1) - The shape is a bit random and quite ugly (because the second linear part of the slider doesn't go past the vertical line if you see what I mean). I suggest to make a sort of 'blanket' with 01:54:008 (1) - and change a bit the shape, like this : http://puu.sh/wxhn0.jpg (same for 03:34:675 (3) - not vertically but horizontally)
- 01:54:897 (4,5) - Linear slider that aren't vertical or horizontal are quite ugly most of the time. (same for 03:34:008 (6,7) -) Plus you could use a rotation to emphasize how different the sounds on (4) and (5)'s heads are.
- 02:16:675 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40) - combos shouldn't be that much long, says one guideline in the ranking criteria. You could add a new combo on big white ticks, or on somewhere where there's a loud sound, even if I'm aware it represent quite right the part, but this is just to be sure you don't have more problems when it will be qualified or before.
- 02:21:786 - Just a suggestion, but having the preview point here would be great since the voice here is really epic and intense (and it's the heart of the song)
- 02:42:897 (25) - I suggest a higher SV to really emphasize how intense the voice is :3 (or another shape with a red anchor ? Or both ?) Same for 04:44:230 (25) -.
- 02:55:563 (1,2,3) - Same suggestion as above, you could make it easier to make it more and more extreme with the crescendo
- 02:59:490 - There's a note here (1/3 snapping ?) so I'd suggest to make 02:59:342 (1) - a slider
- 03:00:230 (9,11) - The overlap is a bit odd
- 03:02:675 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - As above, I think the direction should change more intensely
- 03:06:008 (5,9) - NC (like above)
- 03:06:675 (2,3) - You can also unstacked these if you did above (saying 'Same as Above' everytime means that you have structures, so it's great for the map :3)
- 03:10:675 (1,2,3,4) - You should make the curve in the other way (CTRL+J and CTRL+H) so you will have a more intense difference with 03:10:897 (1,2,3,4) -
- 03:17:119 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - I think there's an issue here, the stream isn't perfect
- 03:26:453 (9,10) - Why do you have a jump here when there isn't any at 03:25:564 (9,10) - ? I suggest to move (10) at (136,96) and maybe using the same angle than 03:25:786 (10) - after a CTRL+J
- 03:30:008 (9,10) - You could use 1/4 reversed sliders instead, even if the rhythm is maybe 1/3 it'll still represent it
- 03:28:675 - Another warning here for the difference between 1/2 slider and circles, they shouldn't be random like they seems to be (same for 03:55:342 -)
- 03:32:342 (2,3) - This jump is a bit extreme
- 03:35:342 (8) - This slider's shape is not that much pretty imo. Something like this could be better maybe ? http://puu.sh/wxijm.jpg (also overlap with 03:34:897 (4,5) -)
- From 03:39:342 - to 03:41:342 - This part seems extreme for no reason as the song isn't really intense
- 03:46:008 (4) - This slider is quite ugly, mainly because it's in a 45° angle (and the position is quite random) (same for these 04:01:564 (1,4) -)
- 04:18:007 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48) - Same thing for the combo length
- 05:04:007 (1,2,3) - Like above, you should make these easier so the crescendo will be emphasized
- 05:07:342 (3,1) - Same odd overlap, and same triangle 05:08:007 (2,6,7) -
- 05:09:341 (1,2) - I think these 2 circles aren't enough emphasized since they are really loud and they conclude the song. Maybe you could make a cross-screen ?
That's it, good luck :3
