for my first 9k plays alternating was a huge nuisance when i tried to play maps that were more complex than just 1/2 or 1/4 spam. kicking it was hard but worth it. alternating as a playstyle is not for everyone. clearly not for him if its killing his acc.
anyway OP, dont focus on how you're playing, focus on playing.
I'm sorry if I offended others with that poorly thought out comment. I only meant that this applied to myself as my own personal bad habit. Alternating takes far too long to develop accuracy for me, maybe two fingers means twice the workload I dunno. Anyway I've been practising a great deal of single tapping and now my middle finger is more accurate and faster than my index. This probably would've taken me longer if I were still alternating.GoldenWolf wrote:

alternating is NOT a bad habit, even if you personally suck at that it doesn't make it any bad
if alternating was natural for him then he could just have kept alternating everything, it doesn't even matter what you do as long as you play the game in a way that's natural/comfortable to you

Two fingers doesn't mean twice the workload, if alternating sliders only feels more natural to you just do so, but it's absolutely not a bad habit in any caseKukiMonster wrote:

just try to kick the bad habit Kuki. he thought you meant it was a bad habit in all circumstances [like when he replied to me] rather than yours specifically. Rather silly knee jerk on his part but we'll forgive it.
The guy has issues singletapping sliders, it's obvious it's not natural for him. In no cases alternating is a bad habit. Even if you mix singletapping with alternating at random places, as long as it's natural/comfortable there are no issue with it.KukiMonster wrote:
I have to focus really hard to single tap sliders and even then my accuracy actually decreases and I tend to break. Seems I will forever be stuck with alternating them. Is this weird?
Alternating is more elegant to single tapping which is a very aggressive play style. Personally I find it incredible how these high level players single tap nearly everything, I want to be fast like that with one finger.Storm2344 wrote:
but... alternating is cool. Only problem i ever had with it is that streaming is hard at the beginning but i saomehow got used to it. When i started playing osu! i never imagined you could play with 1 finger [cause you know, 2 buttons] and now i would never change my style for singletap.
And if it works for u then do it, experiment yourself and find what works for you best.
Thanks. I've stopped alternating on single hit circles (except when it appears at end of slider) which has increased my accuracy. But from what I've gathered here there is nothing wrong with my now semi-alternating play style. We'll see how it goes.Riince wrote:

You don't have to worry about this at all. You can even find players in the top 50 who alternate most of the time (even single notes) like Azer and HAUHAU. I myself alternate everything at all times, though I am by no means a particularly skilled player.KukiMonster wrote:
Thanks all for the tips. I guess from what I'm hearing, alternating on sliders is not too bad. Actually I'm still used to alternating on sliders its just I'm worried if this will turn into one of those walls later on when I do higher pp maps. But If this is common and not a problem at all then I will stop paying attention to it.
but be warned, once you stop alternating she will die a cruel, painful deathwinber1 wrote:

thanks for the feedback. but no, i'll continue giving relevant advice. if his accuracy is dying because of alternating he should probably stop. all bad habits can become "natural" that doesn't make them the right thing to do.apaffy wrote:

@OP, just go with whatever makes yourself feel comfortable

His accuracy drops and he even sliderbreaks because he's trying to single tap them.KukiMonster wrote:

your reply was relevant and filled with useful information and you have completed refuted me by calling me bad.nooblet wrote:

Again, just because you can't play something or some way, doesn't mean it's bad, just means you suck at it. I guess the contra positive isn't true, since you're still posting shit as usual.
If you spent this much time playing the game maybe you could give some real advice.
To topic: alternating does not require more work, it's merely a placebo effect
I do the same exact thing, have always done it, and I dunno why. Alternating pretty much everything but stacks. I've always wondered why that is, it's almost comforting that someone else does it too.AegisFTW wrote:
for example if I see a stack of 1/2 notes no higher than 300 BPM I'm going to single tap that whole stack, but I generally alternate everything else, I don't know WHY I do this but it certainly isn't bad from what I can tell.
