In your eyes, how relevant is ranking to skill?

In terms of the ranking system, no, touchscreen is not balanced. You can absolutely exploit all aim PP, but you can't make any use of any maps with 1/4.

It's absolutely not balanced in any way in terms of PP. There is no balance here.

Lol op don't flatter yourself.
SPOILER
That's all right op, in the future please refrain from subtly bragging about how good you might think you are, also, go green.

You can always use one hand for aiming and the other one for tapping.
Which essentially is tablet+kb (with a hand replacing the pen), I know.

This is fair.

Do you think there should be balance changes made to it, though?

Assuming that I can give you a selected 3* map and you might not even be capable of passing it it's quite stupid of you to call yourself the best <50k player.

hate to judge but i really dont think you're better than most 50k players, or in fact any of them. you can't understand what it's like play accurately or the humongous challenges of moving a cursor from note to note, and when your top ranks are just easily touchscreen abused maps it becomes a moot point whether or not it's an unviable playstyle for most maps when even the small fraction of maps that are easily abused are enough to easily inflate the rank of someone who can't even grasp what a 300 hit window is because of how weighting works.

Sorry for being so derisive, but statements like the one in your signature just set me off.

Ok. Point taken, removed that stuff.

Apologies, thread.

Same here.

I see no way to balance touchscreen play with Mouse/Tablet play. The only reason this isn't a massive problem is because there are very few touchscreen players.

Touchscreen play is not comparable in any way, and no touchscreen aim is anywhere near remotely impressive when compared to Mouse/Tablet aim.

And please stop flattering yourself about your PP scores compared to your rank, it's kinda unbearable

Touchscreen is a fundamentally unbalanced playstyle that rewards massively disproportionate PP compared to the effort and skill required to achieve the scores compared to just about any Mouse/Tablet play.
And here. Really, apologies.

Yes, there is skill required in playing touchscreen - I tried it once, didn't particularly care for it, went back to tablet - but when it comes to aim maps, it's not even close.

no
in fact i think that they are overranked

Do you think ranking is not a good way to determine player skill?
yes it's not a good way, but then there's actually no good way to determine a player's skill in a balanced manner in this game unless we can gauge each aspect of the skill like how osu!Skills did. But then, even if peppy implement this as the new ranking system, someone are bound to find a way to exploit and farm ranks

Should there be more touchscreen-oriented maps?
no
as if tag4 wasn't a good enough example for that
i mean
no one plays tag 4 with 4 players in this game at least not when im trying to find a tag2/tag4 room

osu! was originally based on Ouendan / EBA, which WERE designed to be played on the touchscreen of the Nintendo DS.

So much salt here.

Regardless, good skill doesn't always mean good rank, nor vice versa. I don't know why I must keep repeating this.

not at all, you're better than me without cheating but that's not much of an accomplishment anymore
it's still not about me, good try tho

All I see is accusations from an extremely bitter vet. It's still entirely about you and the fact that you don't like me because I llike treating you like a piece of shit. You even have access to the hundreds of shitty videos I post too.

Shrug, if I wanted to inflate my score, TV songs is an easy winner for taking advantage of PP. I honestly don't understand why there aren't (harsher) penalties for short songs.

At any rate: had my score at 10k whilst I nom'd off of short songs that were way over-valued for their difficulty. After I stopped caring about my rank and just played to improve? 24k. Huge difference, no?

I don't know what the algorithm is for PP and I don't think it's necessarily bad compared to the past systems, but it still leaves a lot to be desired.

It's pretty balanced IMO. I would find a 10 minute 5.2* map easier to grind than a 1:30 5.8*+ map.
