I just have this feeling for weird songs, requested mod.
[General]
Make sure you use a sliderborder, this is needed if a map contains a skin. Insert it under the [color] part in the .osu - preferably white (255,255,255)
Ike, are you sure you wanna have a different kiai time than the other maps?
[Beginner]
This is a beginner diff, jumps should be avoided under every circumstance. I'd like you to remove the things which are for example 1.45 DS - if your is 1.0x, you should stick to that.
00:53:529 (1,2,3,1) - Things like that look a bit messy, and you could use the space given much better. Let me drop a suggestion: http://puu.sh/58DSL.jpg
00:56:729 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - The whole part is : straight slider. circle. circle. And then it's just 90% rotated - this turns out to be really boring. Can you think of maybe a usage of curvy sliders as well to get a better balance? There's nothing wrong with straight sliders at all, but please, give your players some variation. Why not using something like this? http://puu.sh/58DWV.jpg I'm 100% sure you can imagine what I mean, otherwise, feel free to bug me ingame.
01:14:329 (1,1) - Please avoid the NC spam, it's not necessary, and should still be readable by newbie players, mabye even better - some people were telling me that they are confused if there are so many 1's.
01:38:729 (3) - This slider shape here would improve the natural flow pretty much. Try it http://puu.sh/58E1s.jpg
01:41:129 (1,1,1) - Mhh, not so sure about this part. 1) The Nc's tend to be confusing 2) the more than 1 reversed sliders, is this readable for newbies? I'd like you to get more opinoins on that.
After all, you should go through your whole diff and try to fix some things, to improve your map, even if it was an old mapstyle, there can be improvement for sure! I hope my suggestions could inspire you a bit. Feel free to tell me your opinion, and disagree on points.
[BeatOfIke's Normal]
Lol Ike, didn't expect you here, haha
00:10:129 (5) - Move this one to 256 208? I guess that's more readable for players playing this diff, and you've used really many stacks.. not so sure abotu that for a normal to be honest.
00:27:529 (1,2,3) - If you wanna do something for the flow here, to give players a better structure you could try my suggestion.
http://puu.sh/58EaZ.jpg
00:30:329 (1) - Mhh, this one ends on a downbeat, which is not really recommended! Try to place a circle and a slider going from the downbeat? This will keep a rhythmcal strucutre.
00:53:129 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1) - And the same here the kiai. But here, it's not that it's boring, more it's that it's incredibly hard for a normal, don't you think so? You've used a variation between 0.78 and 1.50 in the first part, and then you've only used circles in the second part which is really exhausting. Well, about the jumps i don't agree at all, and you could try to replace 2 circles to one slider, to give the player some time to rest. A rather big suggestion, but it should be conisdered.
Rest is okay, everything else is stated above. And as well, let me know what you think, so we can find a way we both can approve it.

00:03:729 (1,2,3,4) - Nazi - make sure it has the same circle pattern as 00:02:129 (1,2,3,4) - (simply copy paste, because currently it's not made proper)
00:30:529 (5,5) - Watch your DS, also nazi.
00:34:129 (1) - This has a rather bad flow, try http://puu.sh/58EuQ.jpg?
00:36:129 (2,3,4,5) - The same goes here, don't forget, those are just suggestions, you can use any pattern you like, as long as it flows better than the current one. http://puu.sh/58EvN.jpg
01:41:929 (1,1,1) - NC spam not needed here
Although I didn't point out that much, I'd like you to fix small things ilke 01:35:729 (3,4) - those. They bother me, since you can see them very good in game, and it just doesn't look made very tidy! The diff overall was enjoyable, the circle density was also okay.
[Azmato's Another]
I have a problem here, it's the overmapping 0 0 00:28:329 (4,5,6,7) - Things like this aren't in the song, and to be honest they don't really fit as well. Isn't there a way to put funny 1/2 sliders, or circles with a jump maybe as well?
00:16:529 (2,3) - This is just me, but the reading of those would get easier if 3 was closer to 2.
http://puu.sh/58EL1.jpg If you check this out once, you can see how the song is really 'snapped', you've often use triplets, which doesn't fit the song unfortunately. In this screen 00:18:129 - = 7, so you get an idea.
00:47:329 (3) - This slider here, if you listen carefully there is nothing on the blue tick > remove with a single circle on the red tick?
00:49:129 (3,4,5,6,7,8) - spacing should be made consistent here, this is barely playable..
00:50:729 (4,5,6,7,8,9,1) - Also a big combobreaker, it's really hard to get this the first try, first 1/2 then 1/4 (stacked) and then 1/4 next to it, that just causes too much of trouble, if you ask me, but that's due to my playin skills as well - so if you get opinions where they actually liked it, and it was no problem, tell me please.
Overall, I've really enjoyed the diff, but sometimes it felt awkward because it didn't follow the rhythm too good. I'd like you to take acloser look at it, and ask me questions if needed.
You're on a good way, good luck! And don't hesitate asking me for further questions, I'm here to help
. You didn't write when this timing starts.
