Hi! I know people ask a lot about the different play styles, so this is why I am going to ask a very specific question: Is it possible to play Click/X at the top level? I don't think I've seen any references to very high level players doing it, and I know the best always use Z/X regardless of their using mouse or tablet. I am around rank 9000, so I'm not bad, but I feel that I have a really hard time playing fast maps at double time speed, because I am not used to that back and forth alternation that I see Z/X players using. I tend to rely on clicking the mouse when I can, and I use X for streams, or quick beats, or basically any time I couldn't possibly click fast enough or accurately enough. Is this style just not going to cut it for fast double time? Is it possible to get good at doing the back and forth alternation that Z/X players use, while using Click/X?
I just want to clarify that I am capable of beating most maps at regular speed, and many at double speed. I'm not one of the best by any means, but I'm able to stream quickly (I think Click/X makes this easier in general) and my accuracy is not bad. I can also click very fast when I want to with just my mouse. It's just that I can't seem to click fast enough to keep up with hard double time maps, and I feel like the only way a person could do it is to alternate from one key to the other through the whole map. Is it just something I should try to learn to do with my Click/X style, or is it not practical with this style? Also, should I try to start playing this way at every speed to get more used to it, or is it safe to keep using click for the targets that I can hit with just clicking and using X as sort of a backup for fast situations?
This question is kind of directed at the experienced players, since I really am aiming to get to the top levels eventually. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then watch Silvia. He apparently always goes from X to Z, and then back to X on every click at every speed, or at least this is how it looks to me in his Youtube videos. I could be wrong.
Thanks for any input! Sorry if this has been asked before, but I wasn't able to find any threads on this specific question about clicking style.
