It's difficult to adjust to at first but you'll quickly grow accustomed if you play relatively frequently and from then on it's impossible to go back

yep, im still adjusting now, i can do 4.5 star maps with keyboard at about 90% acc, which is good for me, but if i want to do 5 star i still have to use mouse only

Protip: Generally the community quotes the highest star maps you can get a full combo on instead of maps you can "do" in terms of judging skill

So um judge by that metric instead (and dont spam 5star if you srsly care about improving)

I'm amazed that you can clear 5* maps with mouse only lol.

in that case i can usually fc 4.5-4.75 ish maps with mouse only, above that i usually get one or more breaks lol. i just got used to it the same people get used to using keyboard, the time i switched over to keyboard i wondered how the hell people used it xD

still playing mouse only, like for a year already or so... Only struggle-ing with death streams, jumps are totally fine. Can adjust myself to streams too if i will practice, just don't have enough time. Also now im kinda using my time to map songs and not play

When I first started on osu I would use my pen and tablet only, just using my pen to tap, lol but growing accustomed to harder songs it became more difficult to play with just my pen taps alone. Most people suggested me to use my keyboard for my clicks and it was a little awkward at first but it def got a whoooole lot easier on my hands and brain. Trust me, you'll learn and grow!

i dont feel any strain when i play mouse only, i dont think i ever have lol, perks of going to a sports boys only school, and when i played with keyboard my wrist got worn out quickly... it was like my right arm was stronger than another... i wonder why ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). i ordered a tablet a few days ago and its coming in just over a week so i need to adjust to that soon anyway
