I only use sliderticks to help me read speed changes when it's actually possible to tell.

I find it's often a good guide, in those cases when it's not intuitive through the music. Though it's hard to trust slider ticks after all those times they've tricked me. 
Never. I always guess based on how long I think the slider should be (I'm really good at guessing). If it appears to be shorter than what I think it should be, it's probably slow.
Slow sliders are harder with more ticks because you break combo instantly, rather than having a second to reorient your cursor because you started hitting it too fast.

I never use sliderticks to determinate speed of slider. Too much thinking, specially when you are playing a very difficulty map. I just flow with the music and if I break the combo is probably because the velocity change is used badly.
I just hope that the slider speed change is "properly placed" within the song. That said I never use sliderticks to help me read slider speeds.
I never even look at slider ticks.
Nope. Feel the music! :D

No. I just "feel" the music at that part and try to discern if the slider would change speed or not.
That's why I dislike it when mapper change slider speed with no musical indication whatsoever.

Nope. Then I usually get 100 for not catching up to the slider ball or going faster than the slider ball and already on the next combo.
Unles two sliders are next to each other and with the same exact shape, i have no way to let my mind notice sliderticks, expecially with high Approach rates and/or fast paced maps.
So it's basically 99% Never.

Who the hell looks at sliderticks?? How do you have time to check the slider ticks on a fast paced map lol. My eyes are usually only focused on circles and approach circles.
i didnt even know that it could be used as guides :V
Yes, I do. Of course, knowing the song is a helpful indicator, but the slider ticks almost 'confirm' it for me.
NOPE
Never O:

I picked the third option, because I rarely notice them. If used correctly I would have chosen the fourth option ... I hate random slow downs when the music indicates none whatsoever 
I don't.
I kinda want to, but I tend to forget about them when I am playing. So, when playing an unkown map, I mainly use the song and try to predict them from the part of the map that has already passed.

Dunno about slide ticking but I'm just depending on the music. If I miss then I'll retry, at that point you already know when the slider gets fast/slow.
