Zekk - Gemini by DonKiwi
174 BPM, 2:52 | 4.55★
Captain's description (by elexire):
This month, we're giving you what can be called nothing short of a gem. DonKiwi is definitely not a name everyone is familiar with, but their chart of Gemini might be recognized by some, and is absolutely deserving of a nomination.
Being used in the Group Stage for Speed of Light 3, this gave exposure to someone who was completely unknown at the time. Alongside this, their chart of Sleepy Tea was used in the round right after, which also proves how Gemini wasn't any kind of one-hit wonder. It's very rare to see tournaments picking up charts by someone without any form of reputation, but this goes to show how there can always be potential in the places you'd least expect.
All this talking aside, what exactly does the chart contain? To answer, it's a REALLY solid tech chart containing a plethora of patterns, such as dump-heavy sections with wide snap varieties, slight bursts, and some threatening jack sections, which despite what the star rating says, is no joke at 174 BPM. Even then, it's still at a skill level that allows a wide range of players to enjoy.
With that being said, it's heavily encouraged you help vote on this chart to give it the spotlight it deserves.
