i didnt play osu mania for a few days but when i got back to playing it i cant pass a 3.8* or 4* map, i cant get S rank at 3.5 map, and i cant read a hard pattern, etc. I think it's because I haven't played it in a long time that my reflexes and muscle memory in the game are weakening.


so any tips?

Picture this:
You're practising a instrument, playing a simple song. After countless takes, you manage to play it smoothly. You did it a few times and then you take a few days off. Then the day after that, you're interested to play the instrument again but only then you find yourself struggling unlike before. That's because you're not get used to it.

So, you started going from the beginning, playing it right again section by section of the song and not long after you're back on track.

Overall, if you can't do it like you used to before, you can start from a difficulty that is simpler and more achievable to you. I been there recently, after days of not playing it and I barely get an S in 4 stars map with 96-98% like I always did. So, instead of pushing myself, I just go back to 3 stars first before proceeding.

I played easier map like 2* maps and i improving slowly, but that make me bored. I think thats the only way so im just gonna play the same map over and over until i get used

If you rusted, the answer is simple: just improve again. Play how you did before, focus on improving, and you will reach your peak again pretty quickly.

play harder than your skill level, as if you're getting B ranks on maps, it's a good sign you don't understand it (or it's too fast/hard for you). also keep in mind osu recommended difficulty is not to be taken seriously.

if your acc is bad, download quaver or etterna and figure out your skill range so you can do judge training, where you play on a tighter judge (like playing od8 normally and switching to od8 + hr) so it feels less tight normally.

learn some patterns (you just have to know how to tap them, not know their names, their social security number, everything on their driver's license, the universe they live in down to a subatomic scale, their wife, both of their kids, you get the point.)
