Round 45 : Star Formations


Nominated by Xgor. Basically, a pattern of hitcircles (the last one can be a slider) placed in a way such that the the followpoints formed by them form a star. It is not limited to 5/6 pointed stars.

Map(s) that use this technique
DJ Mars - Lemon Tree mapped by MetalMario201
Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Wizards In Winter mapped by Echo
IOSYS - Poinsettia mapped by Aakiha

I like this pattern. It's just great when it's not randomly placed.

Both of those examples are 1 worthy due to their horrible innacuracy, but these are, when perfect, incredibly sexy

I couldn't find any ranked examples that aren't mine - I guess I'm just mega nazi. They are easier to make now we have scale by though, so I expect more to come

Yeah, 5 sides of star formation should be equal in length.
Anyway I like it.

a pain to click when they are placed like a circle, in other cases they are mostly fine

Same. I prefer them when the followpoints themselves form a star

And that's what this technique is? If it just goes round in a circle it's a flower combo

Fucking Poinsettia, hate them when they are awfully used but otherwise they're awesome.

You're lucky the AR was too high for me to notice before!

4 if you know how to use them, they look and play great. They suck on Sushi's maps though (and Poinsettia).

Most awesome in Poinsettia, where they are basically the theme of the map.
