Credits to Soarza who made the GD! Thanks a lot <3

Pale broken wings, you're just a little tired from the sky which is too blue. Don't do it for anyone else, just smile for yourself!


Well, my first beatmap turns out to be a TV SIZE. I'm officially a sellout.
This actually was my very first uploaded map. But now, it's been 2 years since I typed that. Let's do this.

This is not pp map, if you are looking for maps that are hard to play all the way through for improving your skills, you have come to the right place :)

Fixed insane's DS thanks to [XV] and ktgster. Thanks a lot guys!

Also thanks to Shiro for helping to time it! <3

Also, added bg now :) Will add video later

EDIT: Now that I look at it, I think your BPM is slightly off, it is 191, however I time it at 190. This may be causing some of the problems I mentioned below.
00:01:386 (3) - Seems to be a tick early
00:02:640 (2) - This slider needs to be a tick shorter
00:03:973 (4) - This slider needs to be a tick shorter
00:04:835 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - Beats seem to be slightly early
00:34:223 (6,1) - I think there should be a beat between the circle and slider
00:35:399 (2,3,4,5) - I think these beats are early
00:38:299 (1) - This should be a tick shorter
00:39:317 (2,3,4,5,6,7) - This section needs to be retimed and redone, it feels awkward.
00:44:098 (3) - This slider either seems WAY too early or a tad late depending on what it is mapped to.
00:51:700 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3) - During this section, consider remapping some of the double hitcircles into short sliders to mix it up
00:55:775 (2,3) - This seem to be off a little
01:06:433 (1,2) - Both sliders a tad late
01:12:624 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - This whole section I think needs to be shifted one tick ahead
01:18:031 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - This jump may be too much for a hard diff

Good song, and good mapping except for some timing issues.

00:03:973 (4) - This slider needs to be a tick shorter- yup
00:04:835 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - Beats seem to be slightly early - I don't think so
00:34:223 (6,1) - I think there should be a beat between the circle and slider - yup
00:35:399 (2,3,4,5) - I think these beats are early - Yes

00:51:700 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3) - During this section, consider remapping some of the double hitcircles into short sliders to mix it up - Feels really good without sliders
00:55:775 (2,3) - This seem to be off a little - it was
01:06:433 (1,2) - Both sliders a tad late - I don't think so on 25%

01:18:031 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - This jump may be too much for a hard diff - Changed

Thanks for the mod and kudo star priority thingie

Because you were begging for one. Even licked my shoes for one xD jk
From #modhelp

General
Never use 100% volume
Change the SV's a bit more. Add a more variety to it.
Listing them all is too much so I'm just gonna say it here. Patterns are very boring.
preview point should start on slider end of 01:05:380 (4)

Mods
00:00:049 (1,2) - you should remove these imo. Doesn't feel right.
00:04:226 (5,6,7,8,9) - map the vocals
00:08:324 (1,2,3,4) - ^
00:10:846 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - make different patterns with these instead of putting more distance in them and then reducing it. Very boring.
00:21:879 (3) - because it's a long slider, make it look more appealing. Add some motion to it.
00:24:400 (2) - c/p 00:23:455 (1) and mirror it (e.g. https://puu.sh/r20HA/29d891cb07.jpg or something nice(r))
00:35:433 (9,10) - change these into 3/4 sliders.
00:41:107 (3) - ^ and add a another 3/4 slider to fix the random pause
00:44:575 (4,1,2,3) - 00:44:575 (4,1) - ds error compared to 00:45:442 (2,3)
00:46:151 (1,2,3,4) - better patterns pls
00:51:195 (1,2,3,4) - since it's an even number of circles, make a pattern
00:52:770 (8,9,10,11,12,13) - ^
00:54:032 (3,4) - put distance in-between them
00:54:189 (4,5,6) - stack em
00:55:608 (1,2,3,4) - more distance; weird flow
00:56:238 (1,2,3,4) - pattern pls
00:58:760 (1,2,3) - ^
01:16:413 (1,2) - dont slow down since its still in kiai mods
01:18:934 (1,2) - ^

General
Never use 100% volume I know, I haven't hitsounded this map quite yet so I decided to leave volume where it is for now.
Change the SV's a bit more. Add a more variety to it. I will acknowledge I didn't change it much, but SV changes don't have to be made, and in this case, I feel like they are where they should be in each section.
Listing them all is too much so I'm just gonna say it here. Patterns are very boring. I know, but if I changed patterns then I think it would become more pp, which I don't want, I want a more skill based map vs. pp map. Also, you might want to keep in mind how high of a rank you and I are, because it might be much less boring to someone who can't play 5 star maps well.
preview point should start on slider end of 01:05:380 (4) This is kindof a subjective thing so I feel like I'll keep it where it's at for now.

Mods
00:00:049 (1,2) - you should remove these imo. Doesn't feel right. Will keep it in consideration, it is a little strange.
00:04:226 (5,6,7,8,9) - map the vocals I kinda am already, but if you mean make them first priority, I would probably disagree to do that.
00:08:324 (1,2,3,4) - ^
00:10:846 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - make different patterns with these instead of putting more distance in them and then reducing it. Very boring. The point of it was to be boring, so the section after the spinner kinda "slams you in the face", you know what I mean?
00:21:879 (3) - because it's a long slider, make it look more appealing. Add some motion to it. Kinda hard to do that inside the context of using 3-point sliders so... yeah.
00:24:400 (2) - c/p 00:23:455 (1) and mirror it (e.g. https://puu.sh/r20HA/29d891cb07.jpg or something nice(r)) First off, I don't like how that flows compared to other slider to slider flow's in this section. And also, currently as it is, the slider end is blanketed, and the slider overlap is the same type of overlap as the previous one with the long sliders. So I think it's probably OK.
00:35:433 (9,10) - change these into 3/4 sliders. Well, you didn't give me much of a reason to do so. I don't see why I should do this, and secondly, it wouldn't match the flow of this section which uses no 3/4 sliders at all.
00:41:107 (3) - ^ and add a another 3/4 slider to fix the random pause This one I can agree with. I think it plays and feels a lot better.
00:44:575 (4,1,2,3) - 00:44:575 (4,1) - ds error compared to 00:45:442 (2,3) I do not understand what you mean sorry. Something is wrong about the spacing between 2,3 versus 4,1 but I don't understand how.
00:46:151 (1,2,3,4) - better patterns pls You can select any number of circles that are all placed randomly and it is a "pattern". Second, I don't think any of the "normal" patterns that you're probably talking about fit here. Squares, triangles, stars, hexagons, etc. I just don't think they have good flow for this section.
00:51:195 (1,2,3,4) - since it's an even number of circles, make a pattern Again, the point of this section is to lead up to the next, giving a "slap in the face" kinda feel to it.
00:52:770 (8,9,10,11,12,13) - ^
00:54:032 (3,4) - put distance in-between them No, I don't see any reason to do so.
00:54:189 (4,5,6) - stack em MM I don't like the aesthetics of that though.
00:55:608 (1,2,3,4) - more distance; weird flow I did.
00:56:238 (1,2,3,4) - pattern pls
00:58:760 (1,2,3) - ^
01:16:413 (1,2) - dont slow down since its still in kiai mods Well, what do you want me to map to? There's nothing to map here besides what I already have.
01:18:934 (1,2) - ^
Thanks for the mod homie

I don't know who can check it... charles is retired and mazzerin is too busy most of the time.

the place you have the 1/2 ( 00:10:853 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,1) - ) seems overmap, if you listen to the song closely you can hear that the main instrument is the vocalist which means you should map to the vocalist. if you slow down the song again, you will also notice the sliders don't go with any beats, (only a selected few actually work) I would suggest you remap this entire part, so that your actually mapping to the vocals!
Ashton
also, the decimal bpm is off,

the correct bpm is: 190.32

taken from here, the ranked version of the song!

so yea, you may have to remap the entire thing becuase of the bpm change...

First off, I think that using a section to calm the energy quickly and then slowly build a little makes for a nice breakdown section which leads up to a bridge which transfers between the simple beginning and the complicated parts.

Secondly, Shiro said that the ranked versions of the song have wrong timings, so I'm sticking with what he gave me.

Glad I could help make a GD for you Osuology! Hope to see this ranked soon! 8-)

I hope to see it ranked too, but first we have to work out those issues I was talking about! I think we'll make it though, it's going to be pretty exciting for both of us having a first ranked map haha

Yep! Getting a first ranked map is always good.

Totally not going to farm my own map for pp if it gets ranked.
