1. 3-4 years ago. Starting to take CtB a bit more seriously 2 years ago (with many hiatus too)
2. If you are asking me from 3-4 years ago, nothing. But I'm taking CtB seriously because CWC mappool looks cool to play.
3. p for left, [ for right, z for dash.
4. Crystal, dika312.
5. https://osu.ppy.sh/s/797236 , the rain is challenging but really satisfying to play. And the hardest diff (even if I can't play it really emphasizing the song)
6. Deif
7. Yes, HD for low AR maps
8. Solo
9. Rain / "easier overdose"
10. Yes

1. How long have you been playing CTB on osu! for?
I started playing CtB when I started playing osu in May 2014.

2. Why did you start playing CTB?
After exploring all modes a bit, it felt like the easiest one to start with.

3. What playstyle do you use?
Left shift for dashing, num 1 and 3 for moving.

4. Who is your favourite CTB player?
RottenPotato, for being my friend and multiplayer partner.

5. Which CTB map do you like the most?
That's a hard question as I'm not particularly fond of CtB maps. The various difficulties of Renatus by Soleily (the pre-installed map) have been long time favourites, though.

6. Who is your favourite CTB mapper?
I'm not really focused on mappers and I usually play converts, so I don't have any favourites.

7. Do you use mods? If so, which ones?
Yes, I've always used them within my skill range. Nowadays the EZ mod has my preference over anything. Basically I play converts with EZ or EZNC and CtB maps with HT. For easier maps below ar 7, I might try HR and I use FL for some beginner maps when I want to relax.

8. Do you prefer to play in multiplayer or solo?
Playing multi with a friend is what I like the most!

9. What is your favorite CTB Diff?
I like playing converts better than CtB maps, to be honest.

10. Do you like CTB?
Yes! In the end, I always keep coming back after periods of inactivity.

"osu! is one of those things, that most of us find very difficult to avoid."

1. How long have you been playing CTB on osu! for?
Since 2012.

2. Why did you start playing CTB?
Because it was easy to get rank from it compared to the STD game mode which I was legitly unable to hit and move my cursor I was kinda jealous to other people so I basicly just give up myself saying it was impossible which I don't said it anymore at this days, then I slowly start to get addicted in CTB and I always wanted to get better from it and to learn more and more.. and fc some map and having some rival to play with comparing score and way more.

3. What playstyle do you use?
With my.. f.fee.. HANDS!
Right hands numpad4/5 left hands ctrlL

4. Who is your favourite CTB player?
Velperk (Good guy.)
Lavale (Played a ton of HR and being really friendly.)
[KOR]Apolron???(I don't remember his name at all dude but I really liked this person.)
Drafura | Rantanzyon - I was a lot of fun with them and they did learn me a lot sadly Drafura don't like the new hyperdash and probably busy with real life? I don't know.
Celegas - Cute boy.

5. Which CTB map do you like the most?
I mostly like converted map instead of CTB MAP because they basicly give some part which you need to memorise and then having a "FORCE" retry which you barelly can do a first try fc on them and I find them kinda nice to play with and learn specially with HR... but I don't really know the actual meta for be honest.

6. Who is your favourite CTB mapper?
Val0108 style I mean basicly all convert map.

7. Do you use mods? If so, which ones?
I was a one trick hidden player on the past, then I stop playing CTB for several year so I basicly lost my skill from it but I liked to switch between HIDDEN and NO MOD. maybe I should replay some hidden for fun?

8. Do you prefer to play in multiplayer or solo?
Multiplayer always multiplayer it's just fun.

9. What is your favorite CTB Diff?
Yikes I actually kinda read that questions too fast well : I don't know man.
Everything which sound hard to play I guess
--------------------------------------------------
Hard part because nobody like to go into a competitive game which is slow and boring? | Part to memorise Having a FORCE retry because I am masochist probably I dunno. HARD BURST because I like when the music go VROUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMM
--------------------------------------------------
10. Do you like CTB?
Depends from my mod, but I think I do like it?

1. I have played CTB for a couple of months now.

2. I started playing it because it really made me feel calm
unlike the other modes on osu.

3. I just use the standerd playing style shift and left and right.

4.I think my favourite CTB player is either Exgon or Motion.

5. Probably pluto black hole.

6. JBHyperion, I think hes really good at it and captures the feel of a song.

7. I sometimes use HR because im trying to learn high ar stuff, for the rest I suppose HD and FL are really fun!

8. Solo, I feel that im not good enough for multi yet.

9. At the moment platter it plays a lot nicer then salad.

10. I love it and im quiet addicted to it.

1. I started playing ctb a little bit after I started playing osu in general.

2. Standard was getting a little boring so I tried other modes.

3. I'm one handed, I use A & D and shift for dash.

4. Exgon.

5. https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/406881#fruits/884085 no words can describe how amazing this map is.

6. Ascendance. I like a lot of their maps. ~~as much as I can't fc any of his hard maps I still like them~~

7. HD DT for life <3

8. Solo cause ctb multi is fucking dead.

9. Platters. Cause those are the only thing I can fc :c

10. I love ctb, it's a fun mode with a small community

1. I've been playing CTB off and on for a little over a year (May 2018).

2. I'm not too sure why I started. I was probably bored of Standard and didn't have a desk to play it on while I was moving, so I experimented with the modes I haven't played before (CTB and mania) and CTB just kinda stuck.

3. I move with numpad 1 and 2 and dash with X. I use a laptop keyboard.

4. I don't really have a favorite player. I'm not that involved in the CTB community.

5. https://osu.ppy.sh/beatmapsets/841569#fruits/1772811
It's not my favorite because of the map itself; I just really like the song. :^)

6. I'm not sure who my favorite mapper is either. Ascendance is everywhere map-wise, so maybe them.

7. I'm strictly a no-mod player at the moment. I did play HR on Cup diffs, but those don't give out enough pp anymore. Maybe I'll experiment with mods in the future once I've improved.

8. Solo, but it'd be nice to play multis once in a while.

9. I like Salads, Platters, and Overdoses. Salads require little effort, but unlike Cups, you'll be moving most of the time, making them less boring. I can currently play Platters, and that's where CTB gets more interesting and maps are less limited in how they can be constructed. I'm not good enough to play Overdose just yet, but from seeing them being played, they look really cool.

10. CTB is alright. It won't be the main mode I play, but it definitely can be a good break from Taiko if I ever get bored or tilted.

7. Pretty much only no mod but I'm trying to learn hidden

1. Technically, since I started playing osu. But 80% of that time i was inactive, so lets say 3 months ago

2. To take a break from osu!mania

3. Default but on numpad

4. Don't really care about that

5. Despite the playcount for Kira - Circles, it's a tie between Panda Eyes - Highscore, TheFatRat - Mayday and some others

6. The one with good beatmaps

7. HR or DT

8. Solo ftw

9. Cup or Platter

10. For the moment, yes. It's better then standard, easier then taiko, and i played mania to the point of hating it.

2. Idk, because I like to play all modes(?) (I'm an all rounder tho)

3. ./ for left amd right, shift for dash (I used ring finger for dash so it's a bit unusual)

4. A lot of players

5. A lot of maps

6. Spectator, Kurokami, CLSW, JBH there's few other mappers that I like too

7. DT

8. Solo, multis are quite rare for player like me lol. I usually play with friends other than some strangers

9. 6-7* (idk how you call those)

10. Yes

It has been a little over a year so it's about time for an update :3c

1. 2 years now

2. Still the same, I downloaded a catch specific map of my (then) favourite song.

3. Z for left movement, X for right movement, and up arrow key for dash (sometimes mouse, but rarely now to avoid breaking more mouses lol)

4. I have quite a few now xD I'd say Abstract- and ekr are the most entertaining though.

5. I must say nothing really comes to mind :/ Maybe Xinely's Kakushigoto?

6. Xinely, -Ken, ZHSteven, Spectator

7. Well I like all mods except flashlight as of right now. Still trying to improve in everything though.

8. Still solo. Multis usually require you to download new maps and my internet speed doesn't really let me do that quickly :/

9. For catch specific maps, I like Platters because not many people play them with HDHR xD For converts, I like Extra+ still.

10. I like ctb spinning more than the actual mode itself. I don't really know how much I actually like ctb.

1. 4 years next may, almost exactly 1 year after I signed up to osu!
2. For the easy top 50 scores
3. Left Right for left right respectively and S for dash
4. Motion and KevKjef
5. I like most ctb maps, I don't really have a favourite. Maybe Happppy Song?
6. I really like Kyptoric maps, but he's inactive now. From active mappers I enjoy Nelly, Ajamez and Ascendance the most.
7. HD and HDDT
8. Solo, I retry a lot
9. Rains with DT, my favourite mappers make the most fun DT rains as well.
10. Yes, CTB will always be my favourite gamemode, the community has always been really kind and encouraging to me and the game is still fun for me even after almost 3 years of basically the same gameplay. I do need breaks sometimes, but I always come back after a week or 2.

1: I have been playing for about 4 months now.
2: I started playing because I was declining in osu!mania once I reached 5k so I wanted to find something to fill the void and CTB became and open window for me.
3: I use the arrow keys to move and W to dash.
4: I don't really have a favourite at the moment since I don't know anybody besides ExGon, Hyperw7, Motion, Ascendance, JBHyperion, MBomb, chickenbible and some others.
5: Like #4, I don't have a favourite map but I would have to say that Come Hell or High Water mapped by MBomb is a good one, it's not been ranked and I would personally love to see it ranked.
6: Probably MBomb or Ascendance at the moment.
7: I used to use DT a lot when I started FC'ing Cups, but then I stopped using mods. I plan to use HR and DT in the future, and I just can't play with HD or FL.
8: I prefer multiplayer, I would like to find some people to play it with, but I do like to solo it too.
9: Not a clue
10: Like is an understatement, I love CTB, like, A LOT.

1. 4yrs, 3yrs if you count ACTIVE playtime

2. I only played standard, and would multi everyday with a friend, sadly, he lost every match, so one day he switched to CTB and beat me (yay!) although I was petty and decided to learn the mode to be better, suffice to say I stuck with it

3. I use numpad 1 & 3 to move, and use Z to dash (my shift key broke on my old keeb, so I learnt to use Z)

4. At the moment...? Len or the only catch player I actively watch is OneShotFox

5. "Toumei Elegy" by Kyptoric or "In The Middle of the Night" by Minato Yukina otherwise most recently, "Ethnik Khemikal Teknologi" by Nelly

6. [_-Kukkai-_] and Nelly

7. For CTB specifics, I have to use No Mod, unless it's like a platter then I use HDDT.
For converts, I use HD, and for AR8.5 and below, I use HDDT

8. 95% of my catch career has been solo, I don't often multi with people, but would be nice to :3

9. Nervous Breakdown

10. Honestly? No. Will I continue to play it regardless? Yes.

Few days after I started.

It felt easy for me at first, now I take it more seriously.

Default controls

ExGon, Bunnrei, Rostld, DakkyChan and SubClass.

beatmapsets/815390

Sinnoh

NoMod mostly for CTB, converts might vary, usually DT for AR 8.

Both are good, Multi is great to play with friends, but solo is interesting.

Overdoses are great.

Great gamemode <3

1. 3 years, but really its been 8 months of actual playing.

2. CTB was my first choice and it felt more comfortable than the rest from the start.

3. Basic <- and -> with Left CTRL when I'm using index+ring or Space + Delete and Left CTRL if I'm using thumb and pinky (Yes, I do use thumb and pinky. I twist my wrist slightly to have a perfect finger swap)

4. Quite a few. I basically watch whatever and whoever in CTB

5. HoneyGinger (osu! edit) is my practice grounds for stuff

6. Almost any creator at this point.

7. HDDT mainly. I do dabble with others if the map seems fit.

8. Both.

9. Platters and soon Rains.... just gotta get a bit more consistent in 4 star range.

10. Its the only one I know how to play. Love it to bits and going to try and play every possible map.

1. Just Recently. In Game Time is 12 hours, according to osu. I think I've been playing for a month or so.

2. I wanted to branch out from osu!mania and Catch The Beat looked MUCH, MUCH more impressive than both Taiko and Standard combined.

3. Numpad 2 and 3 for movement. X as dash

4. Exgon and ExoticEmerald. Exgon because Der Wald SS. ExoticEmerald because of his funny youtube content about CTB.

5. Short maps. Like, 30 seconds to 1 minute maps.

6. N/A

7. N/A. NoMod Gang for life

8. Solo

9. Cup, because its relaxing to play. You don't need to dash in Cup Difficulty.

10. Hell yeah.

Plz Enjoy Game <3

1: idk since the start of my life as an osu kid.

3: Keyboard + mouse
4: Dakkychan is a flat out god and I like their stuff.
5: My favorite map is sans with the mbomb difficulty. I like the way it was formed and is a solid map.
6: Clsw makes some pretty good maps imo.
7: I'm mostly a no-mod player but my favorite mods are fl and nc.
8: I mostly play in solo as it's much more easier to get a good play. Plus imo multiplayer takes too long lol.
9:Platter as I'm the best at that and the fact that it's the most enjoyable when you're chilling.
10: Yes. I mean thats the reason I'm playing it lmao. Plus I find it more fun then any other

1. Over 1 year continously now

2. No mouse, touchscreen on standard might've been screen breaking territory

3. P for Left, ] for Right, Z for Dash. due to broken keys

1. I've been playing since 2019. I left the game for 1 year but improved, and I'm probably at my peak right now.

2. 'Cause I was terrible at the other mods, and I found it fun.

3. F and J as right and left and spacebar for dashing. It is good for me because it avoids mindblocking, but I think I should change it.

4. ExGon.

5. I like every type of map, but my favorites are convert 3-star and convert old ones.

6. Ascendance? I don't really know.

7. I like using HRDTFL in 1-star maps and HR in some 2-star. I don't use mods in the rest.

8. Solo.

9. Maybe Salad.

10. What is CTB?

2. Why did you start playing CTB?
Firstly CtB is the only mode I could handle in all four modes. Secondly due to my previous gameplay of Kartrider I have already be used to ←/→ on right hand with Lshift on left hand, so this is the mode I could be good at.

3. What playstyle do you use?
Lshift for dash, J/K for move.

4. Who is your favourite CTB player?
Dusk and Crystal.

5. Which CTB map do you like the most?
Those which can give me more pp

6. Who is your favourite CTB mapper?
JBH!

None. I could not handle HD.

8. Do you prefer to play in multiplayer or solo?
