Struggling with two fingers

Umm, so I am new to osu!taiko and I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, so please bear with me.
I play with two fingers (red on J, and blue on K) without alternating. While I can clear all Futsuu maps till 3*, above it there's either Futsuu with very high BPM (for me) or Muzukashii. In Muzu's I just can't hit ddd/kkk type with two fingers (in beatmaps with decent BPM) and it seems like I really have to start using all four fingers. I did try using the playstyle KDDK but I really struggle in coordinating of hands and usually mess up since my muscle memory kicks in and I start pressing red on right (which was blue in my previous playstyle). I have also tried TBT maps but in actual maps I fail. How do I switch to four fingers and avoid my memory kicking in mid-play? (I play on lazer btw if that's required)

Welcome to taiko! :) Just play slower maps for now, until you can alternate patterns without thinking about it. Building the initial muscle memory isn't easy and you'll mess up a lot at first, but you'll get the hang of it eventually.

(technically you don't need 4 fingers, there's top players who play index-only, but yeah you're gonna need to use all 4 keys)

As someone learning how to play taiko with 4 fingers (kddk) and has been slowly improving just play slower maps and work your way up.

just play chill if you want to change playstyle.. dont push it.

but, if you want to improve have to train how to alternate. i'll tell you two thing tho.. back then shinchikuhome fced renatus+dt 273 bpm 1/4 shitstream with 2 fingers. another player is katdon_donkat from my country is a 2 fingers player and he hits 1/6 on 300 bpm both true story
