Hi, soo.. I've been playing Osu! since May 2017 and rarely goes to Multiplayer and play Online. Maybe I had, but it did not even reach 1 hour if I multiply all of them lol. 1 Week ago I play Multiplayer (first time spent more than hour) since I find out my friend also play Osu.

So basically all I tell above is nonsense about question I'm gonna ask anyway lol. I've been wondering since I play Multiplayer for the first time. Is there any type of "spesifiec type of map" that people call? Like Stream Map? Jump Map? Tech Map? Whatever map? How you regonize them? How many type map is there? What criteria must be fulfilled so that map considered as Jump/Stream/Tech/Whatever Map? I did ask many ppl but most of them leaving no answer which is bad that I felt disappointed I do not know what I lacking of and how do I fix them ;-;

I would say that a jump map consists of well, jumps
Stream maps are similarly majority streams.
Tech maps, I'm not 100% sure but I think it has to do with technical note things like slider-into-note, and so on (don't trust me this is just what I've picked up from multiplayer)

there's a bunch of different kinds of maps, but most commonly seen ones are jump maps, stream maps and tech maps.

Officially there is no such things as type of maps. Players often qualified maps based on the gameplay mechanics that are appeared in the map. You probably wouldn't come across this mechanics in the <4* maps tho.

The common ones are:

JUMP MAPS
These maps usually contain single circles that (sometimes short sliders) are distanced from each others. Usually it follows the rhythm of the song and/or a particular jump patterns.

STREAM MAPS
Streams are a series of rapidly appearing circles. The amount of the circles can be various. Mostly the circles have relatively close distance.

TECHINCAL MAPS
Basicly, this is the abnormal map. You can recognize them with their weird pattern, extremely fast/slow sliders, and many more. The reading skill required is usually also pretty high since it has high bpm and Approach Rate.
