Easy
You could try to NC every 2 downbeats to not overly clutter your new Combos

- 00:05:547 (2) - You could split this into 2 circles to get the better effect on the prominent sounds here which exist in both the sliderhead and sliderend
- 00:10:582 (1) - I'd rather you didnt use the reverse here cause it kinda overlaps this strong beat 00:12:260 - . However I understand the need for variety so you could try to place the 1/1 reverse here instead 00:07:225 (1) - and making this 00:09:743 - a circle
- 00:13:938 (1,2) - You could make this symmetrical, since you use a lot of symmetry in your placements throughout the map
- 00:29:084 - Try making a 1/1 slider start here instead. Having 2 circle in a row when they are kinda different musically breaks the emphasis on 00:30:768 (1) -
- 00:34:137 (1) - Should have been a 1/1 reverse, consistency with 00:20:663 (1) - . Also its the more logical choice since 00:36:663 - this is made clickable
- 00:54:305 (1) - Vocal isnt really similar with 00:47:610 (1) - as in, it doesnt land on all the white ticks in the reverse. Thus I would rather make this a 1/1 slider instead and starting a new 1/1 slider from here 00:55:989 - to emphasize the vocal once more
- 01:17:673 (1,2) - The slider anchors here feel a bit unintuitive aesthetically i would rather make the wave show more it just looks awkward at its current state
Normal
As it stands i feel like there is a spread issue here between this diff and the "Easy". While the easy mostly has 1/1 and no 1/2 the normal is filled with 1/2 rhythms with a lot of clicks making the transition really sudden and the spread suprisingly uneven. Following suggestions should work on fixing some the rhythms here

- 00:06:386 (6) - This utilizes 1/2 snap for no reason. This a normal diff so you shouldnt really focus on the background layers. Instead focus on the more dominant sounds by making this a 1/1 slider
- 00:07:225 (1,2) - Would work better as 1/2 reverse the circle there is pretty excessive
- 00:10:582 (1,2) - 1/1 slider to emphasize the hold better
- 00:15:617 (4,5) - Again here, a 1/1 slider would compliment the more prominent sounds here better
- 00:22:347 (4,5) - 1/1 slider here to reduce density
- 00:24:873 (3) - The red anchors a bit too close to the sliderhead/slideend. Shape definitely could be improved here
- 00:27:400 (1) - 1/1 slider for the vocal hold
- 00:30:768 (1) - Dominant instrument implies a 1/1 slider here
- 00:32:452 (3) - 1/1 slider here, consistency with 00:18:979 (3) -
- 00:49:295 (4) - 1/1 slider could work here for the vocals
- 00:57:673 (1,2) - 1/1 slider for the vocal hold
- 00:59:339 (4) - Similar point as above ( consistency with 01:06:006 (4) - as well )
- 01:04:339 (1,2) - Same^
- 01:11:006 (1,2) - Yup same ^
- 01:17:673 (1,2) - Also 1/1 slider here
- 01:24:339 (1) - 1/1 slider for the vocal hold and rhythm differentiation with the other 2 reverses
Advanced
- 00:05:547 (5,6) - It would be more optimal to use a similar rhythm to 00:12:260 (6,7) - for the added consistency and emphasis on the held note
- 00:08:064 (4) - the ticks that land on this reverse are drastically stronger than 00:07:225 (1,2,3) - which are made clickable. I would suggest this 00:07:225 (1,2,3) - being the reverse and this 00:08:064 (4) - being the 3 clickable notes. Same applies for 00:08:903 (5,6,7,8) - . Ctrl G this rhythm as well
- 00:13:938 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - Similar point with this rhythm, needs some rework
- 00:20:663 (1) - 1/1 Slider would work better to better accentuate the vocals
- 00:27:400 (1) - Similar point here^
- 00:30:768 (1) - Also a 1/1 slider for the string accentuation
- 00:40:873 (1,2,3) - 1/1 here also, generally 1/1 sliders would better accentuate sounds that are underwhelmed by the constant 1/2
- 00:49:295 (5) - 1/1 here also, you can understand at this point i assume
- 01:03:506 (6,1) - Visual distancing is a bit questionable here, the transition should allow for some more intesity. You could try a 3 circle pattern for the extra emphasis on the vocals
- 01:07:673 (1) - 1/1 slider, consistency with .. basically every vocal hold
- 01:10:173 (6,1) - Similar point with the visual distance issue with 01:03:506 (6,1) -
- 01:21:006 (1) - 1/1 slider for consistency
Hard
- 00:05:547 (5,6,7,8) - should follow a consistent rhythmic expression as 00:12:260 (5,6) - . Also on the second rhythm, 00:11:421 (4) - this feel like it overwhelms strong beats that could have been made clickable
- 00:08:903 (4,5) - Provided you follow a consistent DS Basis, this is inconsistent by a long shot for no reason since there isnt any particular sound that stands out here
- 00:13:938 (1,2) - Reeally contrasts the density in clickabily with its counterpart 00:07:225 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - . You also dont utilize the same NC mechanic making seem really inconsistent. Also i suggest dropping this NC mechanic since u dont it consistently so it seems rather offputting
- 00:30:768 (1,2,3) - Having 2 sets of circles between 2 sound layers feels a bit weird since there isnt any apparent transition. In my opinion its better to place a 1/1 slider here
- 00:41:434 (3,4) - Some unnecessary spacing here
- 00:48:172 (3,4) - Visual distancing is a bit low here you could spread out this pattern a tad bit to take up more space on the playfield, its kinda cluttered as it stands
- 00:50:937 (1,3) - These 2 would well as a 1/2 slider -> circle rhythm to emphasize the vocals better
- 01:01:006 (1,2) - If you were to switch to a non-consistent DS Mechanic on the kiai, this is not the optimal place imo. 01:01:839 (2,3) - This however should allow some more spacing to be had, consistency with the accentuated vocal on 01:03:228 (5,1) -
- 01:09:895 (5,1) - Inconsistent spacing with 01:03:228 (5,1) - . Then again you should drop the spacing on 01:03:228 (5,1) - a bit
- 01:12:117 (4,5) - You never emphasized this before so its weird to me that you did it now
- 01:16:561 (5,1) - After seeing the spacing here i believe this jump 01:03:228 (5,1) - should be nerfed
- 01:23:228 (7,1) - Also this jump could be increased
- 01:24:062 (3,1) - This spacing doesnt really fit your spacing emphasis. The vocal is dying down and yet this has the most spacing out of all the jumps in this difficulty. Definitely lower
ezekyanna's Mercenary
- 00:04:708 (4,1,2,3) - To be honest you could form a consistent rhythm with 00:11:980 (3,1) - . It compliments the song better imo
- 00:16:456 (2,3,4) - having 3 clickable objects so close together to represent something that you used higher spacing to accentuate previously seems really underwhelming. I would suggest something more spaced or a rhythm incorporating sliders
- 00:20:663 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - these circles dont accentuate rhythm at all does to the 1/2 nature. Nothing in the song here indicates a consistent 1/2 click pattern. Try to use more sliders here for the dominant sounds
- 00:24:873 (4) - 1/2 slider -> circle would work nicely here instead to make the vocal on 00:25:435 -
- 00:27:119 (4,1) - this jump is a bit too much for the intensity provided
- 00:42:277 (6,1) - I Dont understand why this was directly stacked tbh. the beat on the slider is really strong but theres no movement to get to it
- 00:48:733 (5,6) - Also proportionally this shouldnt have that much spacing considering there is more of a vocal hold here instead of a 1/2 choppy vocal
- 00:59:061 (5,1) - Again having this stacked is really awkward, as its really underwhelming . Same here 01:05:728 (5,1) -
- 00:59:895 (2,3) - CTRLGing the rhythm here would emphasize the vocal better. same here 01:13:228 (2,3) -
- 01:01:839 (3,4) - In order to disperse the jumps a bit you could make this a 1/2 slider to emphasize the instrument thats kinda prominent on 01:01:841 -
- 01:05:173 (3,4) - Similar point here^
