Quick quote from the tournament thread.

Hey guys, Mr Color here coming in a little bit before this whole ordeal starts. As you guys know I'll be once more taking part in the play-by-play commentary for the event. I just wanted to introduce myself to the community once again in the middle of all the pre-cup drama. If you guys want to send me any pointers of things you feel I should mention on air about certain players, their strengths and weaknesses, as well as the maps that will be used, I will of course be studying up to offer the most insightful commentary possible, but I won't refuse a little help doing that, so by all means feel free to hit me up with a forum PM and I'll make sure to note down any interesting info you guys will send my way.

You guys have a good one, and I'll see you for the drawings!
We should attempt to compile some information for the commentators to use during the live stream so that they can provide more input to the viewers.

A list of CURRENT players in TWC can be found here: https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Taiko_World_Cup ... rticipants

Some information we should try to compile includes:
  1. Playstyle
  2. Strengths (ie: good at 1/6 patterns or something)
  3. Weaknesses (ie: lower accuracy than most players)
When the map pools become available, we should also try to provide input about the maps
  1. Difficulty (if free mod try to compare difficulty with HD compared to HR)
  2. Type of map (Streamy? More technical map with harder patterns? etc.)
  3. Players who are notable on that map (ie: players who have top 50 on the map)
As a quick example of a player description, look in the second post where I've done my own description

Hopefully everyone is willing to participate here to make the commentary during the stream great!

MYSELF:
Playstyle: kddk QWOP on qwerty keyboard
Strengths: most noteably and most known for sightreading with FL and stupidly high SV maps, less noteable strengths that may not be worth going over include high accuracy on easy maps, going bellow 80 UR at times (mostly and old strength that I lost), newer strenghts are decent consistency at 1/6 in streams, decent accuracy, and just doing decent at most average things, also pretty good at longer streams at around 130 bpm
Weaknesses: Long streams at high bpm (simply 150+), consistency, stamina, DT, accuracy on difficult maps, and most notably completely unable to stand up to par in HD


this reminds me of twc3 where I carried with high acc through a decent bit of the map until I was the first person to miss and just did crap
Luna
Playstyle: kddk setup; j k num4 num5 on a QWERTZ keyboard (those four keys are in the same positions on QWERTY tho, so that part hardly matters)
I currently play standard singletap + alternate on streams, but I have been practicing full alt lately
Strengths: Hard Rock reading and accuracy
Weaknesses: Chaosstreams with lots of irregular handswitch patterns, Hidden
