I've actually been hearing the opposite: people tell me the more pain you feel the better it is, so all I have to do is spam maps until I get so tired I can't tap. Not sure if it's true, but I've improved by a tiny bit in the past few days by doing that, I've tried the stack and single tapping technique but it got me nowhere when it came to high BPM streamsRaneFire wrote:
I'd advise improving speed without exerting yourself, so play streams short enough that you can handle without getting tired, but slightly too fast to get 300's on consistently. Up to 50 notes is usually about right... and maps which also have fast singles and triplets (etc.) will help to speed up your transitions between tapping/streaming.
Train stamina on slower streams where you can still remain consistent even when you start to get tired, just make sure you're getting tired, or else pick a higher BPM... it's like running, you don't build stamina by running your fastest and burning out instantly, you just run slower for longer.
as for the accuracy part, I don't think it has much to do with how fast you can go but rather how good you can sustain that exact BPM you need.Depends how young you are, your ability to recover, and how prone you are to RSI. Past activities help in that department. It's just hitting buttons, afterall, you get tired one way or the other. The difference is that one can cause damage.Mazzerin wrote:

mm, I've been spamming this http://osu.ppy.sh/b/207088&m=0 on 140bpm for the past 2 days and I've already gotten from 43% to 55% in that time(yeah it's terrible but it still is progress)RaneFire wrote:

nah I like mechs much more (not sure if you were serious)Soarezi wrote:
Pain is a good sign. Also try rubberdomes theyre the best. Just look at isokasapupuja. That guy fcs crazy hot with dt after a year of playing with rubbers 99.32% acc hehehehahahaha
im so serious man, rubberdomes clearly are superior. ask thelewaMazzerin wrote:

Aye not too great there. I started stamina training at 160 bpm, not really sure how I got there in the first place seeing as some people are much slower, but I was never fast either.Mazzerin wrote:

as for the RSI, I don't know much about it, but would stretching exercises before/in between/after streaming sessions help?
I'm doing pretty much the exact same thing as you. (same map, same bpm, same accuracy) Except I've been doing it for 2 months now. I started out at about 15-20% on it but with about 250-400 plays (playing it every day), I can finish it at about 50-60%. My biggest issue is just keeping a steady pace the whole map and not so much of me getting to tired. Honestly to most people, this is pretty slow but from what I started at, this is a HUGE improvement.Mazzerin wrote:

3 hours everyday for 6 days is betterR3b0rn wrote:
I think u benefit much more from long osu sessions.
for example: (3 hours on 1 day) > (30 min everyday 6 days long)
better for stamina and speed. Maybe i'm wrong, but that's my experience.

research has been done on this kind of thing, and you are indeed correctR3b0rn wrote:

I haven't practised with them, but when I start playing I tend to start with one of them or another stream map just to get my fingers going.[ Katsu ] wrote:
Has anyone benefited from playing the long stream practice maps? Personally I hate them and wouldn't recommend anyone to use them...
Maybe i'm on my own here but the pace of a beatmap is what I use to judge streams... Without that it is just a disaster.
I've played them a lot, and I only benefited in 1 area... stamina. But having the stamina to maintain a consistent pace also leads to better accuracy, however I did not learn to stream on deathstreams. I learned to stream on my stream practice maps list, playing lots of maps that have streams in them, amongst many other things, rather than being entirely 1 stream.[ Katsu ] wrote:

I wonder the same as you. And that is exactly the way I've learned to stream so far.RaneFire wrote:

There's lots to be learned about consistency, reading and keeping tempo, which you will not get just from deathstreams. You have to play a variety of stuff, at different speeds, AR's, spacing, patterns and circle sizes... and that's how most people got good at this game... playing everything.
I'm so full of skepticism right now about if these guys who are starting with deathstreams, without being able to stream in the first place, will actually pull through. Maybe someone has?
<--- a lot of accuracy + some stamina (although too lazy to fix 160//180 bpm scores)[ Katsu ] wrote:
