Aim and Stream maps are perfect to get better. And in my experience trying to DT jump maps helps me aim and combo break less.
Play more.

Actually play less, cuz i have played more and more and i became worse so obviously playing less will make me a god.
I just want to be #1 instantly to show off, with no effort. Is that too much to ask for!?
The break i took was longer than i thought.
What do i change where pls its embarassing

@ShadyAngel You're still getting PP, though. Keep playing maps that are fun for you and you will eventually build up some consistency.
Play for fun, not for the pp as I always say.ShadyAngel wrote:

Oh, i play osu everytime i can.
I'm going to die peacefully while tapping circles.
As a side note, I never thought gaining more pp means direct improvent in performance, and that it refers to something more complicated.But maybe I'm wrong who knows.
Whatever, downloading all those hardcore 3.0 * beatmaps.

Getting PP can be a way of improving, or a result of improving, depending on how you play. Seeing new scores in your Top Ranks shows that you're at least playing the game, which is all that's needed really.ShadyAngel wrote:

Holy Grail of how to improve:
PLAY
MORE
I get the "play more" thing, but on my side I'm playing the same time everyday, went from #100k to #30k in 50 days, and since then I'm stuck at #30k, not moving an inch, still playing as much.
I tried many things but I guess everyone have a limit at some point, it's a bit like starting violin too old.

30k will not be your limit.
Apparently it is, I didn't stop playing, trying everything but the best days are when I manage to barely get back the rank lost.Kheldragar wrote:

I dunno why, for some reason it was so easy to rank up until 30k an suddendly not moving an inch since one month.
Maybe it was an instance of your skill was much better than your PP so you ranked really fast, but now your skill matches your PP, so you have to really tryhard for some of the scores, and you're feeling deflated because you're not used to not gaining ranks, and don't feel confident enough to make much ground.
You need more 100pp scores.
See if you can play https://osu.ppy.sh/s/53519. That was one of my first triple-digit-pp scores.

Well most of my top scores are only in 3/4 tries (and no FC) - after, the most I try a map the worst it goes (often loosing pp 'cause more combo but far worst accuracy). Thanks for the map that's indeed the kind I like, I tried it a month ago but got 1 miss in the middle so now I can't do it before long.
Honestly I find the biggest barrier to improving is to have enough maps you like. I could probably re-FC anything on my top plays within 5 attempts, but most maps I don't like :/
And yeah, trying the same map too much is usually bad, unless you really like the map (or are an acc-whore like I am, but go for the FC first)
We might have a similar taste in maps. PM me anytime you see me ingame and I'll /np you a bunch of stuff, hopefully it'll help.

Sometimes I fc in one-two plays for a session; sometimes I play a map 60 minutes straight to fc.
I don't think any of my top ranks are fcs... Fcing is so hard.
You aren't even trying.
Trying didn't get me far.Kheldragar wrote:

*sadface*
Still this magic 30k barrier since nearly 2 months, I don't get it. When I finally achieve a difficult score on a map after 2 days of tries it's only to see "-40" rank 'cause I lost like 70 and this score gave me 30 (maps given or not by Tillerino).
I don't play for the rank but it's not really encouraging hmm. At least that mean a lot of people play the game very actively.

What do you play? What is your goal for the map? How often do you retry? How many hours a day do you play?
Hmm I tried all kind of maps (4~5 stars) to break this 30k limit, I still prefer jumpy maps with tricky patterns over fast-streamy maps, I like insane with low ar/bpm but these are almost non existant. The thing is their is always that one random miss never at the same point, where even watching the replay I often don't see how it was a miss. I end up with 5 stars at 98% with one miss in the middle and never FC the map~Kheldragar wrote:

Even my top rank score has a miss near the middle.
Also I avoid long maps since after 1min my hand get sweaty and the pencil end up in weird positions almost out of hand so I do mostly 1~2min maps or maps with a lot of breaks to pause.
The goal is often to FC (or almost) with 95%+
Usually retrying 2/3 times then moving to another map ('cause it get worst with more tries), but since I was never FCing any map worth PP like that I try to play the same map 40~ times in a row tho the result isn't really better. And 1h/day, more is not possible with full-time work and others stuffs.
I didn't loose all hopes but fast gain in rank followed by totally stuck state is hard for motivation ahah.
If you want slower, jumpy maps with patterns, that's basically my entire top plays list. Try some of the maps I have. (Some of them are rather long though)
False, I'm probably the slowest person on this board and probably the strongest tablet advocate only behind maybe Khel
Tablet stronk
....too stronk.

That and the only 2 guys who went in the top 50 of Time Freez nomod (a map made for speed people, really) were mouse players (Angelsim & Doomsday).Mahoganytooth wrote:

Tablet might be strong for aim, but doesn't do shit for my acc and speed. If your strongest attribute was 100, I would be like this:Kheldragar wrote:

Reading: 20
Speed: 10
Acc: 7
Aim 100
Because my other attributes are so shitty, I have an extremely hard time improving lol. Haven't gotten better in my last 3k plays =/
I'd say I'm really bad at aim/tapping synchronization. I tap early way too often, and as a consequence have a lot of random breaks when patterns get more complex.
So your aim is as good as mine? Give me some of that.
No, gimme.Kheldragar wrote:

Oops that was a typo, I meant my.
I read the part about changing styles and I'm wondering if I should do something about my tablet area, cause when I'm using it my hand usually in positioned on the edge and reaching the far side (notes at the top of the screen) sometimes is hard without loosening my grip on the pen and then regaining the grip is impossible without screwing up the current game. problem is I don't know how to change the effective area cause I've got a Osu!Tablet and since it doesnt have any software or anything where I can edit stuff like that I don't know how.... 
Thanks to this thread I fought a bear... and won.
But seriously, thanks.
But seriously, thanks.
I'm at the point where I think FCing is just luck... but at the same time I realize it is a skill game and somehow people can FC songs consistently.
FCing takes skill. Getting SS is luck. Skill will get you to a 98% or 99% FC.Insyni wrote:

With that said, my aim sucks. I still manage to miss on 4.0 star maps. Kek
I mean the aim is luck it seems. Always seems there is one random miss or one random slider break that ruins the FC even though you've gotten 99% on the song 15 times already. Then after you finally FC it you can't FC it again.Repr1se wrote:
