Special Thanks: Shiro, TicClick and Warfu for helping out with timing this song!

Extra Special Thanks to Shiro for helping to make the final slider perfectly symmetrical. <3

Hey, M4M

[General]

1. Custom hitsounds, add them! Some parts sound really weird with my set of hitsounds, unless the map is very simple and the hitsounds are basic, it won't sound good.
2. There are parts where there are notes while there's no beat in the song, or the opposite, notes are missed, but those are less crucial, because some mappers do it on purpose.
   
   [Insane]
3. 00:02:462 - You can probably add a note here (piano in the background) and stack it on 00:02:615 (3) - , if you don't think the note has enough impact, at least put the slider away from 00:02:003 (2) - since they're really close and there's blank space between them, the spacing is confusing.
4. 00:03:687 (2) - Remove finish, why'd you add a finish here?
5. 00:04:758 (5,6) - Remove the finishes here as well, they're really random.
6. 00:04:452 (4) - The slider ends on no-beat, remove 5 and extend this slider.
7. 00:05:064 (6) - ^
8. 00:06:442 (4) - Try to improve the blanket with 00:06:136 (3) - and try to not touch the outer circle of 00:05:830 (2) -, remove the whistles from the slider, you must add custom hitsounds because my set sounds really wrong with the way you did your hitsounds.
9. 00:07:207 - Add a note here
10. 00:07:666 (1) - It ends on no beat, I'd suggest changing the pattern to something like this: http://puu.sh/e1xxB/647ad93a45.jpg
11. 00:07:666 (1,2,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Remove all hitsounds here, I'll show you the way I'd hitsound this part. Clap at the beginning of 00:08:891 (1) - and
12. 00:09:350 (3) - and at 00:09:809 (5,6) -, finish at the beginning of 00:10:115 (7) - (NO FINISH ON END), this way it doesn't sound overdone and it follows the tempo of this part.
13. 00:08:891 (1,3) - Stack properly (look at the x and y values of those sliders at the top right screen).
14. 00:10:115 (7,1) - ^
15. 00:11:340 (1) - Remove the hitsounds from this part and forward, don't just drop hitsounds, try to make them have a pattern or land on extraordinary notes. You shouldn't hitsound some beats then ignore 3 of them (00:14:860 (4,5,6,7) - ). Try to make it interesting, lucky you, a lot of people mapped this song, so you can probably look at other maps for examples (https://osu.ppy.sh/s/226289 and https://osu.ppy.sh/s/224175 and https://osu.ppy.sh/b/563562).
16. 00:17:615 (5) - The whistles just sound wrong here, remove them. Alright, so from this part on I won't mention any more hitsounds, try to re-work them, if you need help you can PM me.
17. 00:11:340 (1,2) - The blanket here can be improved (Watch how the outer circle touches the blanket!)
18. 00:11:952 (2,3) - ^
19. 00:11:952 (2,4) - ^
20. 00:13:024 (5,6) - Stack properly.
21. 00:15:473 (5,6,7) - The flow here can be improved, here's a quick pattern I did: http://puu.sh/e1zyb/aa13890c7d.jpg | 5 and 6 create nice side to side slider flow and 7 continues that while 5 blankets him and flows nicely into the next slider.
22. 00:16:238 (1,2) - I dislike this pattern, it flows nicely to the right and then the second slider stabs him, CTRL+ G on 2 could fix it but then it doens't go into anywhere, but you decide how it goes.
23. 00:17:309 (3) - NC, new vocals and there's a beat between the previous note to this one.
24. 00:17:922 (4) - This slider is really pale, remove the slider and just follow the vocals, something like that: http://puu.sh/e1AeT/ca880ed5a3.jpg
25. 00:18:687 (1) - There's no beat on the repeat, create either one beat slider or 2 circles.
26. 00:19:988 (2,4) - Overmap. (Listen to the song on 25% Playback rate to see if I'm wrong or not)
27. 00:21:172 - The timing point here is useless, delete it.
28. 00:21:136 (1) - No-beat on slider end (Change however you'd like to).
29. 00:21:595 (3) - No-beat here.
30. 00:22:360 (1) - Strong vocals mid slider, make a smaller repeated slider or follow the vocals somehow correctly.
31. 00:22:820 (2,3) - Stack properly.
32. 00:26:187 - You can add a note here, the space is awkward.
33. 00:26:340 (11) - There's a missed note in the second half of the slider, also, isn't the combo too long already?
34. 00:28:483 (1) - It flows really bad from the previous slider, CTRL+G to fix it.
35. 00:30:320 (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1) - The stream is spaced well, but the shape doesn't go along with the shape of the slider.
36. 00:31:850 (4,1) - Blanket better.
37. 00:33:227 (8) - Unnecessary note (No beat and no vocal here).
38. 00:33:381 (1) - The shape of the slider is not looking too nice, try to make it more neat and if possible create some connection with the previous circles.
39. 00:33:840 - Add a note here, awkward.
40. 00:35:371 (7) - It should end on 00:35:677. Something cool you can do is to change the SV on this slider only to 0.5, it will land on the correct beat and will follow the guitar nicely.
41. 00:37:666 (7) - You missed a stream here.
42. 00:37:054 (5,6) - I don't like they come from the upper side, I don't find it that much fun, try to change the pattern here a bit using CTRL+J/H/G
43. 00:39:962 (8) - Either mute the slider-end (no-beat) or extend it.
44. 00:40:345 - You can add a note here too.
45. 00:40:728 (5) - Slider ends on no-beat.
46. 00:41:952 (1) - ^
47. 00:42:258 (2) - ^
48. 00:42:870 (4) - ^
49. 00:44:401 (5) - ^
50. 00:45:473 (10) - No-beat.
51. 00:45:626 (1) - Ends on no-beat.
52. 00:46:544 (6) - ^
53. 00:47:003 (2) - NB.
54. 00:47:845 - You can add a note here.
55. 00:50:217 (3) - Ends on NB.
56. 00:50:524 (4) - ^
57. Okay, lets just say you need to go over the whole map to check about parts with no beats. From now on I'll just note other problems.
58. 00:50:217 (3,4) - You can blanket it better.
59. 00:52:743 (4) - Unencessary.
60. 00:56:493 (8) - Start a slider here, since it is a strong vocal.
61. 00:59:707 (1) - Make it less curvy to blanket better and look better.
62. 01:01:238 (9,10,11) - Stack properly.
63. 01:08:279 (11,2) - ^
64. 01:13:636 (1) - Unnecessary.. It is barely noticeable and looks a bit weird, there's no change in the music, so why?
65. 01:14:860 (1) - ^
66. 01:16:085 (1) - ^
67. 01:18:534 (1) - There are 2 inherited points on the start of this slider, why? Also, don't make the hitsound volume here too high, it is unneecssary.
68. 01:43:942 (9) - Like before.
69. 01:44:401 (1,2) - Stack properly.
70. 01:45:320 (3,4,5) - ^
71. 01:50:524 (1,2,3) - ^

I think I will stop here, I pointed a lot of stuff and they are repeating, please go all over the map and fix everything, I checked Hard as well and the problems are the same, go over it as well then you can call me back to recheck!

22. 00:16:238 (1,2) - I dislike this pattern, it flows nicely to the right and then the second slider stabs him, CTRL+ G on 2 could fix it but then it doens't go into anywhere, but you decide how it goes.I think i'll keep it for now and see if others find it to be a problem too.

26. 00:19:988 (2,4) - Overmap. (Listen to the song on 25% Playback rate to see if I'm wrong or not)This stream is intentional to transition to the normal SV by indicating speed up. Will keep and see if more concerns arise.
27. 00:21:172 - The timing point here is useless, delete it.k
28. 00:21:136 (1) - No-beat on slider end (Change however you'd like to).Made a circle, also made this part of the previous combo and NC'ed next note.

35. 00:30:320 (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1) - The stream is spaced well, but the shape doesn't go along with the shape of the slider.It wasn't intended to match the shape hence the NC immediately after the stream but now that you mention it i might remap this part if more concerns arise.
36. 00:31:850 (4,1) - Blanket better.K
37. 00:33:227 (8) - Unnecessary note (No beat and no vocal here).Keeping,
38. 00:33:381 (1) - The shape of the slider is not looking too nice, try to make it more neat and if possible create some connection with the previous circles.It's shaped like that for effect, but i'll keep it in mind.
39. 00:33:840 - Add a note here, awkward.K
40. 00:35:371 (7) - It should end on 00:35:677. Something cool you can do is to change the SV on this slider only to 0.5, it will land on the correct beat and will follow the guitar nicely. Idk about the SV change, it's cool but I dont think it fits. I wanted to leave a gap here since the next note jumps to the top left of screen.
41. 00:37:666 (7) - You missed a stream here.I didn't like the stream here so i opted for a wavy slider.
42. 00:37:054 (5,6) - I don't like they come from the upper side, I don't find it that much fun, try to change the pattern here a bit using CTRL+J/H/GCtrl Everything~ fixed.

60. 00:56:493 (8) - Start a slider here, since it is a strong vocal.Keeping. I emphasize the vocals with the jump.
61. 00:59:707 (1) - Make it less curvy to blanket better and look better. K
62. 01:01:238 (9,10,11) - Stack properly.K
63. 01:08:279 (11,2) - ^K
64. 01:13:636 (1) - Unnecessary.. It is barely noticeable and looks a bit weird, there's no change in the music, so why?This is to emphasize the bass. It shouldn't be very noticeable because the SV is calculated to imitate a normal slider going at 1.0 velocity.
65. 01:14:860 (1) - ^
66. 01:16:085 (1) - ^
67. 01:18:534 (1) - There are 2 inherited points on the start of this slider, why? Also, don't make the hitsound volume here too high, it is unneecssary.Reduced volume and took out inherited point. Same reason as above for keeping.
68. 01:43:942 (9) - Like before.Muted slider-end
69. 01:44:401 (1,2) - Stack properly.Yep
70. 01:45:320 (3,4,5) - ^

Really, thanks for the mod. I will go fix all the no-beats and stacks (Copy/pasting the triangle patterns I fixed and readjusting) and call you back when I'm done.

Hey, Mod4Mod as we agreed.

General
- The bitrate of your music file is too high. It is currently at 320kbps, at maximum the ranking criteria allowed 192kbps. Use an audio compressing program like Audacity to compress the file into 192kbps.
- Consider employing the use of custom combo colours.
- Why are the Kiai times inconsistent through the difficulties? There should be no reason why they should be.

Easy
-The difficulty settings are pretty high for an Easy difficulty. Personally, I would recommend:
AR3, HP2, OD3
- Most of your blankets don't seem perfect. Instead of picking every single one out and creating a long, unecessary list, I'll just comment about it once. This is currently how your blankets are ending up. What you should aim to do is match the sliders with the approach circle so that each blanket is as close to a perfect circle as you can get. This should get better looking blankets like this.
- 00:10:115 (3,1) - This probably seems a bit confusing for beginner players, since the flow is kind of awkward and it introduces quicker beats whilst the downbeat is covered by a slider end. If you want to keep this rhythm, I recommend mapping the downbeat (long white tick) with a stronger note such as a circle or slider start instead of a slider end.
- 00:18:687 (1,1) - Avoid this sort of overlap, especially in Easy difficulties, as it can hinder readability.
- 00:24:809 (1,2) - Ending on a red tick and then starting on a white tick one beat later creates an awkward polarity that is difficult to read on Easy maps. On low difficulty maps, you should consider Red and White ticks as seperate levels of polarity.
- 00:26:340 (2,1) - I would try and arrange this so that the flow isn't so awkward personally, but that might be a bit difficult to do.
- 00:56:646 (3,5) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:03:993 (5,2) - Try and avoid this sort of overlap.
- 01:32:768 (3) - New combo, since the current combo spans over a lot of measures.
- 01:35:830 (1) - Remove new combo, and put the new combo on 01:37:054 (2) instead since there is a more significant change in pitch.
- 01:39:503 (1,3) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:59:095 - Perhaps push back the break so it starts here instead for effect?
- 02:18:687 (1,2,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked. Use Ctrl+G on them to find their co-ordinate position via their tail.
- 02:25:728 (2,4) - Try and avoid this overlap, since it doesn't look particularly good.
- 03:07:666 - Push back the break to this point, as before.
- 03:32:156 (1,1) - As before about overlaps.
- 03:46:238 (4,1,2) - I think you should use a smoother flow here for an Easy difficulty.
- In all of the other difficulties, you have mapped to the end of the song, whereas you didn't in Easy. You should be consistent about this in all difficulties. Consider mapping this difficulty to the end.

Normal
- The slider velocity is possibly a bit too fast for this sort of difficulty in my opinion.
- 00:11:646 (1,2) - The spacing here implies that 2 starts on the next beat, so it would cause players to hit that note way too early.
- 00:14:095 (3,1) - As before in Easy about red/white tick polarity. That rule applies to Normal too usually.
- 00:18:687 (1,2) - As above about polarity.
- 00:19:911 (1,2,3,4) - This might be tricky for beginner players to play since the BPM is fairly high.
- 00:23:891 (1,2) - As before about polarity.
- 00:48:075 (1,2,3) - I feel as if beginner players will have trouble reading this sort of timing for sliders. I would map with something else here. Something like this belongs more to Hard difficulties.
- 00:54:197 (3,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:02:768 (3,4) - As above.
- 01:26:034 (4,5) - As above.
- 01:37:054 (3) - New combo, since it is a new line in the vocals.
- 01:44:401 (1,2,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:49:299 (1,3) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:01:544 (1) - This is touching the health bar on my screen. Consider lowering it.
- 02:03:381 (3,1,2,3,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:06:442 (1,2,3) - As before about this pattern.
- 02:13:789 (1) - This goes off the bottom of the screen on my end. This is unrankable, even if it's just a little bit.
- 03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - Beginner players wll struggle to read this. Stacks like this should generally be avoided on Normal and Easy difficulties.
- 03:17:462 (3,1) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:22:360 (3,6) - Try and avoid this sort of overlap.
- 03:25:422 (2,1) - As before about polarity.
- 03:38:279 (3) - This touches the health bar on my screen.
- 03:39:503 (2,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:43:177 (3,4,1) - As above.
- 03:46:238 (4,1,2) - Avoid this overlap. 2 is completely covered by the slider which is difficult to read. It being in the middle of the slider doesn't really matter.
- 03:51:595 (1,3) - Avoid this overlap since it doesn't look particiular good.
- 03:55:575 (5,6,7) - As before about stacks on lower difficuties.

Hard
- I noticed that you like overlapping sliders over their centres quite often. This can be acceptable, but you should still be careful about using that sort of overlap as it can still hinder readability if used incorrectly.
- 00:07:666 (3,4,5) - As before about stacked slider tails.
- 00:10:728 (2,3) - Avoid this sort of overlap.
- 00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - This pattern might be a bit too hard for a Hard difficulty. I would more expect this to be seen in Insane.
- 00:24:197 (2,5) - Since 5 is underneath 2 completely, this hinders readability.
- 00:31:850 (3,4,5,6,7) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 00:34:452 (4,5) - This has similar spacing to the rest of the combo, but has different timing, which causes readability problems with timing these notes perfectly when playing.
- 00:38:891 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 00:43:177 (1,3,5) - As above.
- 01:02:156 (1,2,3,5) - As above.
- 01:09:350 (3,4) - As above.
- 01:15:932 (5,6,7) - These notes have similar spacing, but have different timings.
- 01:48:228 (5,6,7) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:12:564 (6,1) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:27:717 (3,4,5) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:21:136 (1,2) - As above.
- 03:24:197 (1,2,3,4,5) - More fast singles that I would consider difficult for a Hard.
- 03:33:228 (6,1) - The spacing here implies that 1 is actually closer than it actually is in terms of timing and will throw players off.
- 03:35:523 (4,5,6) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:54:503 (2,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.

Insane
This difficulty is slightly out of my skill level, so this mod may not be as high quality.
- 00:20:830 (9) - New combo since you've got a timing point changing the volume.
- 00:30:932 (1) - The flow from this slider seems a bit tilted when compared to the flow of the stream. I would recommend rotating this slightly to make up for that.
- 00:52:820 (5) - New combo since the current combo spans over too many measures, and there is a new line in the vocals here.
- 00:59:095 (9) - New combo.
- 00:59:707 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 01:00:320 (4) instead.
- 01:00:013 (2,3,4) - I feel like these would look better when positioned as a perfect equilateral triangle.
- 01:01:544 (10) - New combo.
- 01:02:156 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 01:02:768 (5) instead.
- 01:07:666 (9) - New combo, since the current combo spans over too many measures.
- 01:09:962 (1) - I don't think a wiggle slider like this is really necessary, since it's a short slider and doesn't even cover the entire guitar riff.
- 01:13:636 (1) - As above.
- 01:14:860 (1) - As above.
- 01:16:085 (1) - As above.
- 01:44:401 (1,2) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:57:871 (7) - New combo, since you're switching to compound timing.
- 01:58:483 (10) - New combo to indicate that this section is in compound timing.
- 02:21:136 (3) - As before about completely covering notes with sliders.
- 02:32:768 (1,2) - In my opinion, it isn't appropriate to start the section right after a break with a jump like this, since it can be difficult to readjust to the speed right after a break.
- 02:37:513 (1,1) - This is difficult to read since the first slider covered up a large area and more than completely obscures the slider underneath it and its approach circle. I would recommend using a different kind of slider rather than something like this.
- 03:16:850 (5) - New combo since switching from singular combos to long combos straight away feels kinda off.
- 03:22:360 (5) - New combo since this is the start of the vocal lines, and is on a downbeat.
- 03:38:279 (5) - New combo, since there is a new line in the vocals.
- 03:38:891 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 03:39:503 (3) instead.
- 03:43:177 (6) - New combo, since the current combo is fairly long.
- 03:59:707 (1) - I have to say, this is one fancy slider. However, I do question its rankability.

Standard Ranking Criteria wrote:

Every slider must have a clear and visible path to follow from start to end. Sliders which overlap themselves in a way that makes any section unreadable or ambiguous (including "burai sliders") cannot be used. This is so that no slider has an appearance that is confusing or impossible for the player to read. Additionally, the slider borders must never be covered up from the slider being packed in too tightly. However, sliders that cross over themselves are fine as long as the borders are clearly visible.

It's kinda hard to follow the path of the slider through the 'wings' of the shape, since you can't really see a define path through it. I'm currently not sure if this is acceptable or not personally, so I would check with a BAT about it.

This map is quite fun to play. It mostly needs a lot polishing up so that it is overall neater. Good luck

Hi Hi!~ m4m?

Been a long time since I've given anyone a mod (3 months since my last one!) and since I've started getting back into mapping I might as well get back into modding as well. So without further ado, lets get down to business!

Please bear in mind that these are merely suggestions. It's up to you whether or not you would like to change anything.

[General]

Quick scanning over your difficulties, I've noticed that your distance spacing on all difficulties is set to 1.0x
Try fiddling around with the distance spacing and finding out which spacing is more suitable for each difficulty.

In all of your difficulties, I can see spacing issues (mostly present in hard and insane)
Easy and Normal should have consistent spacing whilst hard and insane can be more lenient but try to keep the same spacing throughout the difficulty.

Hit-sounds on the other hand could use a good amount of work. I think in this case you'd want to put a clap on every note that lands on the 2nd and 4th beat in a measure. Just in case you don't know, you can put a hit-sound on a slider-end or head by double clicking the head or end of a slider. (I see claps on the ends and heads of the same slider, so try removing some if they don't land on the 2nd or 4th beat)

You can also check this map https://osu.ppy.sh/s/224758 if you need more help on hit-sounds.

Looking at meta-data now, in the field "Tags" you can get rid of the tags "sword art online" as it is already in the "Source" field.

Also your mp3 bit-rate is higher than the maximum 192kbps allowed. You need to either find another mp3 file or use one of two methods to convert the audio to 192kbps.

1. Audcaity - I use this program to convert all of my audio down to 192kbps. You do need to download and install the program though (it's free)

or

2. http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-mp3 - you can use this site. I've never used it before but I've seen some people use it.

For all difficulties

Kiai time is also inconsistent throughout all difficulties. Just so all kiai times are consistent I will list them all here just so you can compare them with yours.

Start - End

00:50:524 - 01:09:962
02:08:891 - 02:28:330
03:27:258 - 03:49:146 (The 3rd kiai time ending, I'm not 100% sure if that's where it should end)

00:00:00 - 00:19:605 - I think in this entire section, I feel that there should be no claps as it is a very soft section of the song. You could possibly use whistles or if you use the right one you could use piano hit-sounds.

The mod is incredibly long because you wanted me to point out all of the hit sound errors...

[Easy]

00:01:544 (1,2) - Fix up blanket http://puu.sh/e4upD/74e9ccf2c1.jpg - I did move (2) in the timeline back a bit just so you can see the blanket better
00:03:381 (2,1) - Create a better blanket http://puu.sh/e4ub7/c75c021c78.jpg I also do not think you need a clap on (2)
00:05:830 (2) - ^
00:09:503 (2) - no clap
00:10:115 (3) - Try adding a whistle on the slider end and see if you like that.
00:13:789 (3) - Remove claps. Add a whistle on the slider head to emphasize the piano.
00:15:013 (4) - Remove claps
00:18:687 (1) - Whistle on slider head
00:20:524 (3) - remove clap
00:21:136 (1) - Big beats like this one, on the slider head, you should add a finish
00:24:197 (4) - Remove claps
00:26:340 (2) - Claps here seem to be reasonable
00:50:524 (1) - This slider here doesn't really fit in with the beat as you do miss quite a few beats. Why not give this a shot? http://puu.sh/e4wJB/4a9093206c.jpg - Also add a finish on the first slider head since it is a big beat.
00:59:707 (1,2,3) - Try this rhythm out. The slider ends fall on the downbeat, which are typically the weakest hit on a slider http://puu.sh/e4xa7/345e01c866.jpg
01:02:156 (3) - If no changes are made from the above mod, get rid of the claps on this slider
01:07:360 (2) - Clap on slider head
01:20:217 (1) - I'm a little sad that this slider can't end on the red tick. You should also use a soft sample set here instead of normal
01:22:973 (3) - remove this clap
01:26:034 (1) - I'd remove whistles here
02:08:891 (1) - Finish on the slider head
02:13:177 (2,1) - Fix blanket http://puu.sh/e4zkP/ed0f255083.jpg
02:18:687 (1) - Finish instead of a clap on the slider head. You may keep the clap on the tail
02:18:687 (1,2,3) - Try to stack these slider ends perfectly
02:25:728 (2,4) - These 2 sliders create an ugly overlap. Try this: http://puu.sh/e4zOx/15cba42185.jpg
02:57:871 (1) - A finish would go nicely here
03:02:768 (2) - Remove claps
03:27:258 (1) - Remove finish on the slider tail
03:49:146 (4) - No clap, only finish.

You can remove these timing sections are they really aren't used:

01:12:731
01:16:405
02:37:513
02:37:666
02:38:126

By getting rid of these it just makes the bottom timeline a little neater.
These are difficulty specific.

[Normal]

00:02:615 (3) - No claps needed here. Maybe whistles?
00:07:666 (3,1) - I think the blanket here could be fixed up a little http://puu.sh/e4APJ/420a8c09e4.jpg
00:19:758 (3,1,2,3,4) - That's quite a step up from easy! It's really cluttered here so it might be a tad too difficult IMO
00:21:136 (1) - Finish on the slider head
00:24:809 (2) - Remove clap from slider head
00:32:768 (3) - ^
00:39:656 (4,5) - Change to whistles
00:40:728 (1) - Finish on slider head
00:43:177 (1) - Remove clap from slider head
00:54:197 (3) - ^
00:56:952 (1,2) - Consider this arrangement http://puu.sh/e4GHZ/5292b9c129.jpg
00:59:095 (3) - Remove clap from slider head
01:00:320 (3) - Add clap to slider tail
01:00:931 (1) - Remove clap
01:02:769 (3,4) - Perfectly stack the slider tails
01:03:993 (5) - Remove whistle
01:05:217 (1) - Finish on the slider head and clap on the tail
01:05:830 (2) - Clap on the slider tail
01:06:442 (3) - Remove whistles
01:08:279 (3) - Remove clap
01:20:064 - 01:22:054 - Consider using a soft sample set for this part
01:22:207 (4) - Finish on the slider head
01:25:422 (2) - Remove clap
01:33:381 (1) - Remove clap on the slider head
01:35:830 (1) - Remove clap from slider head
01:36:442 (2) - Add clap to slider tail
01:37:054 (3) - Add clap on repeat end
01:43:330 (3) - These claps don't really fit
01:44:401 (1) - Finish on the head and clap on the tail sounds good
01:45:013 (2,3) - These are not stacked perfectly
01:47:768 (2) - Make this slider curved for better flow
01:49:299 (1) - Maybe a finish instead of a whistle
01:55:115 (1) - remove clap on slider tail
01:58:177 - Consider using a soft sample set here
02:08:891 (1) - Finish on the slider head
02:11:952 (2) - Remove clap
02:15:626 (3) - ^
02:21:136 (2) - Remove whistle and add clap on slider end
02:33:228 (2) - Add finish to slider head
02:50:524 (1) - Remove clap on slider head
02:52:973 (5) - Finish instead of clap maybe?
02:57:871 (2,3,4,5,1) - Might be a bit much for a normal
03:00:320 (3) - Finish on slider head
03:02:156 (2) - Remove clap
03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - This might be confusing to some players
03:21:137 (1,2,3) - Try this for better flow http://puu.sh/e4MDB/79411cd4b2.jpg
03:32:156 (2) - Finish on slider head clap on tail

You get the idea...moving on!

[Hard]

Not going to point out hit-sounds now because you probably know how it works already, but in case you would like some help, PM me or say hello in-game!

00:13:636 (8) - Move to x:260 y:204
00:20:830 (7,1,2) - Not a very good overlap, makes it hard to read
00:21:136 (1) - Finish on the slider head
00:23:432 (7,1) - Not parallel
00:30:932 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1) - Bad overlapping? Maybe just bad slider end stacking
00:34:758 (5) - should be moved further away as the timeline suggests
00:35:065 (6,7) - Make (6) repeat and remove (7)
00:41:340 (2,3) - Bad overlap
00:50:524 (1) - Finish on slider head and remove clap on tail
00:55:422 (2) - Finish on head
01:00:320 (3) - Finish on head
01:29:401 (1,3) - Stack (1) on the slider end perfectly
01:37:666 (3,1) - Not so great overlap
02:12:564 (6,1) - Stack better
02:41:034 (3,4,5) - This confused the hell out of me for some reason
03:38:738 (4,5) - Create a better blanket

[Insane]

Same as hard, I won't point out hit-sounds (I may point out a few) but just PM me or message me in-game if you need help.

00:06:442 (5,1,2) - Maybe change to whistles or none at all
00:09:809 (5,7) - try stacking these
00:14:095 (1,2,3) - get rid of claps
00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,5) - I don't think the stream fits in
00:21:136 (10) - Finish here
00:30:932 (1) - move this slider over to the left a little bit
00:46:544 (6) - Change slider shape to 00:45:626 (1) - except vertically flipped
01:09:350 (3,4) - (3) does't flow nicely into (4) consider angling (4) more to the left or make it curved so you kind of do a figure eight to the next note
01:29:018 (3,4) - Make these follow the flow of the slider before, so it kind of blankets (5)
01:44:401 (1,2) - Aren't perfectly stacked
01:50:524 (1,2,3) - ^
02:05:217 (2,3,4) - ^ (this is more of a Nazi mod though )
02:33:993 (3,4) - ^
03:10:115 (3,4,5) - 3 claps here don't sound very good
03:19:911 (1,2,3,4) - Stack better

Well that's all for me, hopefully I've helped you quite a bit! I thought insane was really fun! Aside from all the hit-sound and a few rhythm issues, the map is alright.

Good luck in the future!

Hey, Mod4Mod as we agreed.

General
- The bitrate of your music file is too high. It is currently at 320kbps, at maximum the ranking criteria allowed 192kbps. Use an audio compressing program like Audacity to compress the file into 192kbps. On it
- Consider employing the use of custom combo colours.
- Why are the Kiai times inconsistent through the difficulties? There should be no reason why they should be.Will fix.

Easy
-The difficulty settings are pretty high for an Easy difficulty. Personally, I would recommend:
AR3, HP2, OD3Hmm, I'll play around with them. I do agree they are a bit high.
- Most of your blankets don't seem perfect. Instead of picking every single one out and creating a long, unecessary list, I'll just comment about it once. This is currently how your blankets are ending up. What you should aim to do is match the sliders with the approach circle so that each blanket is as close to a perfect circle as you can get. This should get better looking blankets like this.I will go through them again.
- 00:10:115 (3,1) - This probably seems a bit confusing for beginner players, since the flow is kind of awkward and it introduces quicker beats whilst the downbeat is covered by a slider end. If you want to keep this rhythm, I recommend mapping the downbeat (long white tick) with a stronger note such as a circle or slider start instead of a slider end.Remapped
- 00:18:687 (1,1) - Avoid this sort of overlap, especially in Easy difficulties, as it can hinder readability.Remapped
- 00:24:809 (1,2) - Ending on a red tick and then starting on a white tick one beat later creates an awkward polarity that is difficult to read on Easy maps. On low difficulty maps, you should consider Red and White ticks as seperate levels of polarity.Remapped all polarity related concerns on both Easy and Normal
- 00:26:340 (2,1) - I would try and arrange this so that the flow isn't so awkward personally, but that might be a bit difficult to do.I will try.
- 00:56:646 (3,5) - These aren't perfectly stacked.Fixed all stacks~
- 01:03:993 (5,2) - Try and avoid this sort of overlap.Remapped
- 01:32:768 (3) - New combo, since the current combo spans over a lot of measures.K
- 01:35:830 (1) - Remove new combo, and put the new combo on 01:37:054 (2) instead since there is a more significant change in pitch.I'm not sure about this... but i'll consider.
- 01:39:503 (1,3) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:59:095 - Perhaps push back the break so it starts here instead for effect?Yea this works!
- 02:18:687 (1,2,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked. Use Ctrl+G on them to find their co-ordinate position via their tail.
- 02:25:728 (2,4) - Try and avoid this overlap, since it doesn't look particularly good.Remapped
- 03:07:666 - Push back the break to this point, as before.K
- 03:32:156 (1,1) - As before about overlaps.Remapped too.
- 03:46:238 (4,1,2) - I think you should use a smoother flow here for an Easy difficulty.^
- In all of the other difficulties, you have mapped to the end of the song, whereas you didn't in Easy. You should be consistent about this in all difficulties. Consider mapping this difficulty to the end.I want the easy to have more breaks. I actually wanted the breaks on the Normal too, but I felt beginning players could still handle with only one break on a Normal.

Normal
- The slider velocity is possibly a bit too fast for this sort of difficulty in my opinion.I think it's fine, and generally I prefer slightly faster sliders (show's on my Insane)
- 00:11:646 (1,2) - The spacing here implies that 2 starts on the next beat, so it would cause players to hit that note way too early.Remapped
- 00:14:095 (3,1) - As before in Easy about red/white tick polarity. That rule applies to Normal too usually.
- 00:18:687 (1,2) - As above about polarity.
- 00:19:911 (1,2,3,4) - This might be tricky for beginner players to play since the BPM is fairly high.I think this is okay. Same with the triangle pattern sliders you mentioned earlier.
- 00:23:891 (1,2) - As before about polarity.
- 00:48:075 (1,2,3) - I feel as if beginner players will have trouble reading this sort of timing for sliders. I would map with something else here. Something like this belongs more to Hard difficulties.This is supposed to be a sort of "challenging" area of the song, which shows in my Hard/Insane as well.
- 00:54:197 (3,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.All fixed.
- 01:02:768 (3,4) - As above.
- 01:26:034 (4,5) - As above.
- 01:37:054 (3) - New combo, since it is a new line in the vocals.Makes sense
- 01:44:401 (1,2,3) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:49:299 (1,3) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:01:544 (1) - This is touching the health bar on my screen. Consider lowering it.Remapped this whole part.
- 02:03:381 (3,1,2,3,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:06:442 (1,2,3) - As before about this pattern.
- 02:13:789 (1) - This goes off the bottom of the screen on my end. This is unrankable, even if it's just a little bit.I realize that. Remapped. Future reference, also remapped the parts where the hp-bar was reached.
- 03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - Beginner players wll struggle to read this. Stacks like this should generally be avoided on Normal and Easy difficulties.Hmm, I like it so I'll leave it for now and see if it is a concern for others too.
- 03:17:462 (3,1) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:22:360 (3,6) - Try and avoid this sort of overlap.
- 03:25:422 (2,1) - As before about polarity.
- 03:38:279 (3) - This touches the health bar on my screen.
- 03:39:503 (2,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:43:177 (3,4,1) - As above.
- 03:46:238 (4,1,2) - Avoid this overlap. 2 is completely covered by the slider which is difficult to read. It being in the middle of the slider doesn't really matter.Remapped.
- 03:51:595 (1,3) - Avoid this overlap since it doesn't look particiular good.Agreed.
- 03:55:575 (5,6,7) - As before about stacks on lower difficuties.Keeping, same reason as above.

Hard
- I noticed that you like overlapping sliders over their centres quite often. This can be acceptable, but you should still be careful about using that sort of overlap as it can still hinder readability if used incorrectly.I made the mistake of assuming if the slider heads overlap perfectly Ctrl+G means the tails will too .
- 00:07:666 (3,4,5) - As before about stacked slider tails.
- 00:10:728 (2,3) - Avoid this sort of overlap.Remapped
- 00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - This pattern might be a bit too hard for a Hard difficulty. I would more expect this to be seen in Insane.I made this a 7 point pattern instead. I want to highlight the tempo increase hence the series of circles over any slider patterns, but perhaps the jumps are too difficult as you mentioned.
- 00:24:197 (2,5) - Since 5 is underneath 2 completely, this hinders readability.Moved a few notes around.
- 00:31:850 (3,4,5,6,7) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 00:34:452 (4,5) - This has similar spacing to the rest of the combo, but has different timing, which causes readability problems with timing these notes perfectly when playing.I think i'm missing a note here, my bad, it's fixed.
- 00:38:891 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 00:43:177 (1,3,5) - As above.
- 01:02:156 (1,2,3,5) - As above.
- 01:09:350 (3,4) - As above.
- 01:15:932 (5,6,7) - These notes have similar spacing, but have different timings.Same as above, must've polygon'ed 5 instead of 6 like i intended.
- 01:48:228 (5,6,7) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:12:564 (6,1) - These aren't perfectly stacked.
- 02:27:717 (3,4,5) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:21:136 (1,2) - As above.
- 03:24:197 (1,2,3,4,5) - More fast singles that I would consider difficult for a Hard.I think this is fine. My Hard is on the upper end of the spectrum anyways and it's 196 bpm so I feel players should expect to see some jump patterns.
- 03:33:228 (6,1) - The spacing here implies that 1 is actually closer than it actually is in terms of timing and will throw players off.Fixed
- 03:35:523 (4,5,6) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 03:54:503 (2,4) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.

Insane
This difficulty is slightly out of my skill level, so this mod may not be as high quality.
- 00:20:830 (9) - New combo since you've got a timing point changing the volume.Played around with it, will consider, but I don't like how it leaves a 2 note-combo.
- 00:30:932 (1) - The flow from this slider seems a bit tilted when compared to the flow of the stream. I would recommend rotating this slightly to make up for that. I agree.
- 00:52:820 (5) - New combo since the current combo spans over too many measures, and there is a new line in the vocals here.I don't know... I don't agree with this 100% so i'll leave as is for now.
- 00:59:095 (9) - New combo.K
- 00:59:707 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 01:00:320 (4) instead.Yep
- 01:00:013 (2,3,4) - I feel like these would look better when positioned as a perfect equilateral triangle.I agree, moved a bunch of notes around to keep the spacing/patterns to accommodate this.
- 01:01:544 (10) - New combo.K
- 01:02:156 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 01:02:768 (5) instead.K
- 01:07:666 (9) - New combo, since the current combo spans over too many measures.I think this is okay, but will try and find an alternative.
- 01:09:962 (1) - I don't think a wiggle slider like this is really necessary, since it's a short slider and doesn't even cover the entire guitar riff.I really like this wiggle-slider effect. The SV change is calculated to that it completely imitates a normal 1.0 slider. This is purely for visual effect but If it draws too much concern I guess theres no hard making them normal.
- 01:13:636 (1) - As above.
- 01:14:860 (1) - As above.
- 01:16:085 (1) - As above.
- 01:44:401 (1,2) - The tails of these aren't perfectly stacked.
- 01:57:871 (7) - New combo, since you're switching to compound timing.Agreed on both.
- 01:58:483 (10) - New combo to indicate that this section is in compound timing.
- 02:21:136 (3) - As before about completely covering notes with sliders.
- 02:32:768 (1,2) - In my opinion, it isn't appropriate to start the section right after a break with a jump like this, since it can be difficult to readjust to the speed right after a break.I like this though. Keeping.
- 02:37:513 (1,1) - This is difficult to read since the first slider covered up a large area and more than completely obscures the slider underneath it and its approach circle. I would recommend using a different kind of slider rather than something like this.I agree with you on it obscuring, though I was half aiming for that. I will probably remap this though.
- 03:16:850 (5) - New combo since switching from singular combos to long combos straight away feels kinda off.K
- 03:22:360 (5) - New combo since this is the start of the vocal lines, and is on a downbeat.Keeping, I think this isn't necessary, and makes the hexagon pattern look a bit incomplete.
- 03:38:279 (5) - New combo, since there is a new line in the vocals.Keeping this too.
- 03:38:891 (1) - Remove new combo, and have it at 03:39:503 (3) instead.Makes sense.
- 03:43:177 (6) - New combo, since the current combo is fairly long.Agreed
- 03:59:707 (1) - I have to say, this is one fancy slider. However, I do question its rankability.

Standard Ranking Criteria wrote:

Every slider must have a clear and visible path to follow from start to end. Sliders which overlap themselves in a way that makes any section unreadable or ambiguous (including "burai sliders") cannot be used. This is so that no slider has an appearance that is confusing or impossible for the player to read. Additionally, the slider borders must never be covered up from the slider being packed in too tightly. However, sliders that cross over themselves are fine as long as the borders are clearly visible.

It's kinda hard to follow the path of the slider through the 'wings' of the shape, since you can't really see a define path through it. I'm currently not sure if this is acceptable or not personally, so I would check with a BAT about it.Definitely!

This map is quite fun to play. It mostly needs a lot polishing up so that it is overall neater. Good luck

Thanks for the very insightful mod! ^^.

Hi Hi!~ m4m?

Been a long time since I've given anyone a mod (3 months since my last one!) and since I've started getting back into mapping I might as well get back into modding as well. So without further ado, lets get down to business!

Please bear in mind that these are merely suggestions. It's up to you whether or not you would like to change anything.

[General]

Quick scanning over your difficulties, I've noticed that your distance spacing on all difficulties is set to 1.0x
Try fiddling around with the distance spacing and finding out which spacing is more suitable for each difficulty.

In all of your difficulties, I can see spacing issues (mostly present in hard and insane)
Easy and Normal should have consistent spacing whilst hard and insane can be more lenient but try to keep the same spacing throughout the difficulty.

Hit-sounds on the other hand could use a good amount of work. I think in this case you'd want to put a clap on every note that lands on the 2nd and 4th beat in a measure. Just in case you don't know, you can put a hit-sound on a slider-end or head by double clicking the head or end of a slider. (I see claps on the ends and heads of the same slider, so try removing some if they don't land on the 2nd or 4th beat)

You can also check this map https://osu.ppy.sh/s/224758 if you need more help on hit-sounds.

Looking at meta-data now, in the field "Tags" you can get rid of the tags "sword art online" as it is already in the "Source" field.Changed.

Also your mp3 bit-rate is higher than the maximum 192kbps allowed. You need to either find another mp3 file or use one of two methods to convert the audio to 192kbps.On it.

1. Audcaity - I use this program to convert all of my audio down to 192kbps. You do need to download and install the program though (it's free)

or

2. http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-mp3 - you can use this site. I've never used it before but I've seen some people use it.

For all difficulties

Kiai time is also inconsistent throughout all difficulties. Just so all kiai times are consistent I will list them all here just so you can compare them with yours.

Start - End

00:50:524 - 01:09:962
02:08:891 - 02:28:330
03:27:258 - 03:49:146 (The 3rd kiai time ending, I'm not 100% sure if that's where it should end)Fixed.

00:00:00 - 00:19:605 - I think in this entire section, I feel that there should be no claps as it is a very soft section of the song. You could possibly use whistles or if you use the right one you could use piano hit-sounds.

The mod is incredibly long because you wanted me to point out all of the hit sound errors...

[Easy]

00:01:544 (1,2) - Fix up blanket http://puu.sh/e4upD/74e9ccf2c1.jpg - I did move (2) in the timeline back a bit just so you can see the blanket betterDone
00:03:381 (2,1) - Create a better blanket http://puu.sh/e4ub7/c75c021c78.jpg I also do not think you need a clap on (2) Yep I see now.
00:05:830 (2) - ^
00:09:503 (2) - no clapI trust your judgement and have changed all the hit sound mods you brought up. Thanks a lot, seriously!!
00:10:115 (3) - Try adding a whistle on the slider end and see if you like that.
00:13:789 (3) - Remove claps. Add a whistle on the slider head to emphasize the piano.
00:15:013 (4) - Remove claps
00:18:687 (1) - Whistle on slider head
00:20:524 (3) - remove clap
00:21:136 (1) - Big beats like this one, on the slider head, you should add a finish I see.
00:24:197 (4) - Remove claps
00:26:340 (2) - Claps here seem to be reasonableI remapped this part but i'm going to follow your suggested pattern of claps.
00:50:524 (1) - This slider here doesn't really fit in with the beat as you do miss quite a few beats. Why not give this a shot? http://puu.sh/e4wJB/4a9093206c.jpg - Also add a finish on the first slider head since it is a big beat.Yep, I agree it is a missed opportunity here.
00:59:707 (1,2,3) - Try this rhythm out. The slider ends fall on the downbeat, which are typically the weakest hit on a slider I like this. Remapped.
01:02:156 (3) - If no changes are made from the above mod, get rid of the claps on this slider
01:07:360 (2) - Clap on slider head
01:20:217 (1) - I'm a little sad that this slider can't end on the red tick. You should also use a soft sample set here instead of normalYep, changed. And yea, I might remap this part but there are polarity issues
01:22:973 (3) - remove this clap
01:26:034 (1) - I'd remove whistles here
02:08:891 (1) - Finish on the slider head
02:13:177 (2,1) - Fix blanket http://puu.sh/e4zkP/ed0f255083.jpgFixed
02:18:687 (1) - Finish instead of a clap on the slider head. You may keep the clap on the tail
02:18:687 (1,2,3) - Try to stack these slider ends perfectly Fixed all stacks (Quite a few were mentioned in the mod above but I had not yet updated the map for you, sorry!!)
02:25:728 (2,4) - These 2 sliders create an ugly overlap. Try this: http://puu.sh/e4zOx/15cba42185.jpgRemapped
02:57:871 (1) - A finish would go nicely here
03:02:768 (2) - Remove claps
03:27:258 (1) - Remove finish on the slider tail
03:49:146 (4) - No clap, only finish.

You can remove these timing sections are they really aren't used: Done.

01:12:731
01:16:405
02:37:513
02:37:666
02:38:126

By getting rid of these it just makes the bottom timeline a little neater.
These are difficulty specific.

[Normal]

00:02:615 (3) - No claps needed here. Maybe whistles?
00:07:666 (3,1) - I think the blanket here could be fixed up a little http://puu.sh/e4APJ/420a8c09e4.jpgFixed
00:19:758 (3,1,2,3,4) - That's quite a step up from easy! It's really cluttered here so it might be a tad too difficult IMO I'm keeping this because this is a strong section. Also, strangely enough the difficulty goes up by 0.01 if I make them circles lol.
00:21:136 (1) - Finish on the slider head
00:24:809 (2) - Remove clap from slider head
00:32:768 (3) - ^
00:39:656 (4,5) - Change to whistles
00:40:728 (1) - Finish on slider head
00:43:177 (1) - Remove clap from slider head
00:54:197 (3) - ^
00:56:952 (1,2) - Consider this arrangement http://puu.sh/e4GHZ/5292b9c129.jpgI like it. Remapped
00:59:095 (3) - Remove clap from slider head
01:00:320 (3) - Add clap to slider tail
01:00:931 (1) - Remove clap
01:02:769 (3,4) - Perfectly stack the slider tails
01:03:993 (5) - Remove whistle
01:05:217 (1) - Finish on the slider head and clap on the tail
01:05:830 (2) - Clap on the slider tail
01:06:442 (3) - Remove whistles
01:08:279 (3) - Remove clap
01:20:064 - 01:22:054 - Consider using a soft sample set for this partDone.
01:22:207 (4) - Finish on the slider head
01:25:422 (2) - Remove clap
01:33:381 (1) - Remove clap on the slider head
01:35:830 (1) - Remove clap from slider head
01:36:442 (2) - Add clap to slider tail
01:37:054 (3) - Add clap on repeat end
01:43:330 (3) - These claps don't really fitReduced the number of claps here.
01:44:401 (1) - Finish on the head and clap on the tail sounds good
01:45:013 (2,3) - These are not stacked perfectly
01:47:768 (2) - Make this slider curved for better flowK
01:49:299 (1) - Maybe a finish instead of a whistle
01:55:115 (1) - remove clap on slider tail
01:58:177 - Consider using a soft sample set hereK
02:08:891 (1) - Finish on the slider head
02:11:952 (2) - Remove clap
02:15:626 (3) - ^
02:21:136 (2) - Remove whistle and add clap on slider end
02:33:228 (2) - Add finish to slider head
02:50:524 (1) - Remove clap on slider head
02:52:973 (5) - Finish instead of clap maybe?
02:57:871 (2,3,4,5,1) - Might be a bit much for a normalRemapped this part. Interestingly the difficulty went up lol.
03:00:320 (3) - Finish on slider head
03:02:156 (2) - Remove clap
03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - This might be confusing to some playersI think this is okay because I didn't reverse the sliders and have the tails stack. Keeping.
03:21:137 (1,2,3) - Try this for better flow http://puu.sh/e4MDB/79411cd4b2.jpgI really like this!
03:32:156 (2) - Finish on slider head clap on tail

You get the idea...moving on!

[Hard]

Not going to point out hit-sounds now because you probably know how it works already, but in case you would like some help, PM me or say hello in-game!

00:13:636 (8) - Move to x:260 y:204K
00:20:830 (7,1,2) - Not a very good overlap, makes it hard to readRemapped
00:21:136 (1) - Finish on the slider head
00:23:432 (7,1) - Not parallel Fixed
00:30:932 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1) - Bad overlapping? Maybe just bad slider end stackingFixed
00:34:758 (5) - should be moved further away as the timeline suggests
00:35:065 (6,7) - Make (6) repeat and remove (7)I think it currently plays out fine as is so I'm keeping for now. Also, if i change, I lose the pattern. I only have 3 sliders here so they are necessary for a pattern to be identified, otherwise it just looks like two sliders. This pattern is also consistent with similar ones later on in the difficulty as well as on the Insane.
00:41:340 (2,3) - Bad overlapRemapped
00:50:524 (1) - Finish on slider head and remove clap on tail
00:55:422 (2) - Finish on head
01:00:320 (3) - Finish on head
01:29:401 (1,3) - Stack (1) on the slider end perfectly
01:37:666 (3,1) - Not so great overlapI changed the shape of the sliders a bit, no overlap now too.
02:12:564 (6,1) - Stack better
02:41:034 (3,4,5) - This confused the hell out of me for some reasonI remapped this slightly though the pattern is still the same. Hopefully it is a bit easier to read now. (No more repeat slider!)
03:38:738 (4,5) - Create a better blanketK.

[Insane]

Same as hard, I won't point out hit-sounds (I may point out a few) but just PM me or message me in-game if you need help.

00:06:442 (5,1,2) - Maybe change to whistles or none at all
00:09:809 (5,7) - try stacking theseI like it!
00:14:095 (1,2,3) - get rid of claps
00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,5) - I don't think the stream fits inI still want to keep this since I think it is a good transition from the intro into the normal pace of the song. In understand this concern has been brought up before so I will try and think of another alternative.
00:21:136 (10) - Finish here
00:30:932 (1) - move this slider over to the left a little bitI opted to change the shape of the slider instead so it flows well with the stream.
00:46:544 (6) - Change slider shape to 00:45:626 (1) - except vertically flippedYea, I really like this idea!
01:09:350 (3,4) - (3) does't flow nicely into (4) consider angling (4) more to the left or make it curved so you kind of do a figure eight to the next noteShifted to the left, I don't quite get what you mean by figure eight, but it definitely flows better now imo.
01:29:018 (3,4) - Make these follow the flow of the slider before, so it kind of blankets (5)K
01:44:401 (1,2) - Aren't perfectly stackedAll fixed.
01:50:524 (1,2,3) - ^
02:05:217 (2,3,4) - ^ (this is more of a Nazi mod though )
02:33:993 (3,4) - ^
03:10:115 (3,4,5) - 3 claps here don't sound very goodI took them out and redid some of the hitsounds in this section. Will have to do a more detailed one with your hit sound pattern in mind later though!
03:19:911 (1,2,3,4) - Stack better

Well that's all for me, hopefully I've helped you quite a bit! I thought insane was really fun! Aside from all the hit-sound and a few rhythm issues, the map is alright.

Good luck in the future!

Thank you for the mod! The hit sound mods were incredibly useful .

I feel like I'm in a dishwasher commercial whenever I read "Add finish to ____"

Herro M4M here :3

Normal:
01:49:299 (1,2,3) - the 2nd note is too far from the 3rd (I suggest moving it between them)
Hard:
00:20:830 (7) - Slider overlaps with next note
00:34:299 (3,4,5) - Add greater distance between the 4th and 5th note. I didnt feel the slight pause and clicked too fast until i noticed it.
(It only feels weird the first 3 times you play it)
01:18:381 (5,6) - Exchange for Another slider (Imo)
03:10:422 (3,4) - they are way too close to each other for the slight pause there

Good map overall and GL

From my modding queue




Overall you're going to need some more work put into this. The kiai time is inconsistent, (it's unrankable) Some notes are unnecessary, some blankets are bad/too close, and some of the difficulty options are wack. However I trust you can work hard and perfect this map. Normal mode is the biggest problem. Good luck on your map

00:17:462 (2) - Move down 2 ticks for better blanketFixed.
00:18:687 (1) - Curve this downwardMakes sense.

01:00:320 (7) - NCFixed.
01:07:054 (1) - This note sounds weird and plays weird. Remove this, there is no sound here even. Took out hitsound, but i'm keeping this note. There is a drumbeat here.
01:49:299 (1,2,3) - Curve these to blanket eachother Keeping .
01:55:422 (3) - Improve this blanketK
01:58:177 - This break doesn't seem necessary. The player hasn't even been playing too long since the last break. I suggest you map this part.I like the break, disagree about player not playing too long, but I'll consider mapping this part.

03:23:279 (2) - This note is unnecessaryKeeping this here, drum beat.

03:46:238 (4,1) - these two sliders look awkward. Don't make them touch.THey have to touch because of spacing. Pulled it a bit further to right so less overlap.

Your biggest problems are your song settings, breaks, and audio bitrate. Fix these and the things mentioned above and you should be good to go.

Normal

00:19:911 (1,2,3,4) - Remap this part. It's too hard and confusing for new playersI think this is fine. Hard, maybe, but not confusing.
00:23:891 (1) - This should end on the last white tickFixed
00:47:768 (5,3) - Stack properlyThey aren't supposed to be stacked.
00:50:524 (2) - Blanket 3Sure why not.
01:33:381 (1,2) - This doesn't look good. Don't overlapI think this is okay. Half the circle is visible.
01:35:830 (1,2,1) - Curve so they blanket each otherKeeping. Also blanketting them makes 1 flow poorly into the next pentagon pattern.
01:43:330 (3,4,5) - Same thing as the beginning. Remap thisKeeping.
02:17:462 (3,4,5,6,7) - Remap this as well. Doesn't have good flow. Feels extremely awkward.Fine to me . There are no sharp/acute angles which are the main cause of bad flow. This did made make me realize 6 wasn't centered so I've moved it up a bit so the angle coming out of 5 is wider.
02:32:768 - This part feels WAY too scrunched up. Consider replacing all the fast and short slider parts with alternatives.I like it like this, it fits the rhythm well imo.
03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - This is a BIG no- no.Why?
03:37:666 (1,2,3) - Just one slider would doRemapped, i used 2 sliders instead.
03:55:575 (5,6,7) - Once again. Don't do thisI think this is fine.
There are some AImod problems. Fixed the ones related to beatmap spacing (there was only one )

03:10:115 (2,3,4,5,6) - WAY too crunched upWill try and remap this part (again) lol.
03:15:013 (1,1,1,1) - No New combosThis is necessary because the SV changes with each slider.
Approach rate down by 1I want to keep the AR at 8 because this song has a really high BPM which contributes to more objects per second on the screen. I will consider bringing it down to 7.5 though, maybe.

For this mode watch out for extremely close blankets, unusually small combos, and unnecessary sliders.

Overall you're going to need some more work put into this. The kiai time is inconsistent, (it's unrankable) Some notes are unnecessary, some blankets are bad/too close, and some of the difficulty options are wack. However I trust you can work hard and perfect this map. Normal mode is the biggest problem. Good luck on your map

Thanks for the mod~. I'll work on the Normal a bit more. It's difficulty is currently too high too so I may end up having to take your suggestions on taking out the sliders, even though they are part of my mapping style:P. I guess in retrospect, maybe they don't fit for a Normal, and I still have them on Hard/Insane so its not like I'm going to miss them thaaat much~

[General]

1. You seem to be using a 320kps mp3 which is unrankable:

   The song's audio file must be of reasonable quality. Try and source mp3 files yourself; ripping them from a streaming video site often results in low quality audio with high file sizes. The bitrate of a beatmap's audio file must be no lower than 128kbps and no higher than 192kbps. If you are having trouble acquiring an appropriate audio file, contact one of the more audio-savvy BAT; they will be more than happy to help find an mp3 for you.

   Having an mp3 file like this inflates the filesize and causes issues with certain sound-cards, so I suggest finding a 192kbps mp3 from somewhere.
   
   
2. Your kiai is horribly inconsistent throughout all the difficulties, which looks unprofessional and could cause confusion to the players. Easy and Insane have the most well done kiai imo, so I suggest using that kiai in all the other difficulties as well.

[Easy]

1. 00:18:687 (1) - You could add a whistle on the start of this slider not only to go with the high pitched piano sound and vocal that happens in the music, but to add some more emphasis on this strong beat. It will sound better, so try it~
2. 00:21:136 (1,2) - It is unrankable to have an object stacked over a reverse arrow:

   All repeat arrows on sliders must be visible. Make sure that hitbursts (100s/300s/etc) from previous notes are not covering the repeat arrows or even the paths/ends of sliders (use the default skin to check if using hitbursts from another skin). This way, all sliders will be easily visible and playable.

   This is especially bad on an easy diff, as they'll be even greater effected by the poor readability of these patterns.
   
   
3. 00:33:993 (3,1) - This blanket isn't very good, so you should fix it. Remember, make sure that the approach circle is perfectly parallel to the edge of the slider-track when doing blankets like these.
4. 00:33:993 (3,2) - The map will look neater if you fix this stack, right now they are not at the same place, so it looks a bit untidy.
5. 00:39:503 (5,1,2) - Weird how you keep the same pattern going, even though there is a drastic change in the music after the first slider. This doesn't play well, so I suggest changing the first slider in to something a bit different so it is inconsistent with the next two sliders.
6. 00:56:646 (3) - It would sound nicer if you get rid of the clap here, too many claps in a succession can be jarring to the ears, so I suggest getting rid of this clap so that there is a reasonable amount of space between each clap. They will sound a lot nicer if you got rid of it.
7. 00:57:871 (5,1) - Very minor, but these two sliders seem to be overlapping each other slightly. I suggest moving them apart so that they don't overlap, it will look tidier that way.
8. 01:02:768 (3,5) - This would be unrankable as well, but because these are quite far apart from each other, I'm not quite too sure. You should fix it anyway, just to be safe.
9. 01:27:258 (2) - Minor, but this overlaps with the timing meter on the bottom of the screen, which could cause confusion while playing. I'd move it up a bit, try not to place objects so low down if you can.
10. 01:55:422 (3) - This slider sounds very odd, the repeat sounds out of place and so does it's end. To fix this, you can simply make the slider 1/2 shorter and both ends will land on downbeats, which are preferred because they're the strongest beats in the music, it will only sound odd if the sound that's suppose to emphasise them is 1/2 a beat late.
11. 02:19:911 (2,3) - Another obviously unrankable repeat arrow, Please fix this.
12. 02:22:820 (4) - Was this intentional? Please move this 1/2 forward on the timeline so it is on the white tick. There is nothing in the music that suggests this being on the red tick, and even if there was; the spacing is incorrect and newbies will become extremely confused and hit it too late, thinking it was on the white tick. Just move it forward 1/2 in the timeline.
13. 02:55:422 (3,1) - Like 01:02:768 (3,5) -, I would fix this stack just to be safe.
14. 03:17:462 (1,3) - I would fix this overlap, once again it looks untidy.
15. 03:20:524 (2,3,4) - Like I said for 00:56:646 (3) -, you should get rid of the clap at 03:21:136 (3) - because it would sound a lot nicer. Too many claps in a succession can sound jarring.

[Normal]

1. 00:01:544 (1,2) - Why is the spacing here 0.8 where most other notes use a spacing of 1.00? This is inconsistent, so I suggest fixing the spacing by making them 1.00x apart.
2. 00:02:003 (2) - While you're moving the notes further apart, at least align this to the vertical centre of the screen, it looks messy otherwise. (x256)
3. 00:10:728 (2) - You should add a stronger hitsound at the end of this slider, like a finish; reason being is because the end lands on a much stronger sound than it's head, so it doesn't make much sense to have them represented by the same hitsound, so it sounds odd.
4. 00:27:717 (3,1,2,3,4) - The spacing here isn't quite clear, players will likely start hitting (1) and the stream of notes a beat early, resulting in 50s and misses. I would move (1) and the set of notes after it further away from (3), using 1.00x distance snap.
5. 00:44:401 (3) - This clap feels out of place, so you should remove it. Solitary claps do not sound very good, so removing this would make things feel nicer and more consistent.
6. 00:47:768 (5,3) - Make a perfect stack under 5? Right now it is a little off so it feels a bit untidy.
7. 00:56:646 (6) - Like at 00:44:401 (3) - , you should remove this clap. Like I've said, solitary claps do not sound very nice imo.
8. 01:27:258 (1) - Add a clap at the very end of this slider, since it's on a downbeat. Not only will this put more emphasis on the strong downbeat, but it would also make the two claps after it seem more consistent and fitting.
9. 01:44:401 (1,2,3) - Unrankable, the reverse arrow of (3) is stacked beneath the other sliders within this pattern.
10. 01:51:442 (3,3) - You should either stack these properly, if you look closely then you will see that the stack is not perfect, or you could get rid of the stack completely, if you are worried about the repeat. I don't think it's unrankable though because the gap between the two notes is a lot larger than similar errors I've found.
11. 02:15:932 (4) - This clap sounds somewhat out of place due to how the previous clap pattern had claps at a much lower frequency. I would remove it, personally it would sound nicer that way.
12. 02:25:728 (1) - Why is there a break during kiai time? This really isn't recommended, and hopefully this would've been fixed while making the kiai consistent.
13. 02:40:575 (1,2) - This blanket isn't very good, so you should fix it to improve the map's aesthetics and neatness.
14. 02:50:524 (1,2,3) - Here, I would try coming up with a rhythm that compliments the music a bit better, like this:
    
    Although that downbeat is being skipped, it's not very strong and the entire pattern would sound nicer by mapping to the vocals like you had at 02:48:381 (1,2,3,4) - , rather than mapping to the beat suddenly.
15. 03:17:462 (3,1) - This stack is slightly off, look closely. Please fix this, although it seems minor, it will make your map a lot neater.
16. 03:43:177 (3,4,1) - Another unrankable reverse arrow, the reverse of (1) is stacked under the ends of (3,4) which is unrankable.
17. 04:04:452 (1) - Please end this spinner at 04:05:524 - instead. This is a better place because there is not an audible sound at the red tick it currently ends on, so it ends up sounding really awkward and out of place. It will sound so much better if you move it though.

[Hard]

1. 00:07:666 (3,4,1) - Unrankable repeat arrow, (3,4)'s slider-end's stack over the repeat arrow of (1).
2. 00:33:381 (1) - Like above, this repeat is stacked under a whole load of objects, which is unrankable.
3. 00:40:728 (1,2,3) - You should ctrl+g 2 for a nice circular flow motion, which is better than the poor, jagged flow you have now imo.
4. 00:43:789 (3,5) - Again, unrankable repeat arrow.
5. 01:16:085 (6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The whistles in these patterns do not fit because the music repeats itself; the previous set of patterns doesn't have all these whistles, so why does this?
6. 01:23:585 (5,6) - This blanket could be improved a bit, it will make the music look a bit neater.
7. 01:43:024 (6) - This set of whistles feels really out of place, nothing in the music calls for it so the whistle only ends up sounding odd. I would remove them or replace them with another hitsound.
8. 01:57:258 (3,4,5,6) - For consistency, I would move the second clap from (5) to (4). This will not only be more consistent but nicer as well, so please consider it.
9. 02:01:544 (2,3,1) - Is this spacing inconsistency intentional? It doesn't make too much sense imo, nothing in the music suggests it. I would fix this spacing by moving (3) so it's perfectly in between these two notes.
10. 02:37:513 (1) - This kind of slider is unrankable, so I would change it if I were you:

    Slider anchors/nodes must not be used to manipulate slider speeds (whether they are normal nodes or red ones). Using extra nodes to make a slider "wiggle" is usually fine, but using so many that the slider gets scrunched up (which also makes the sliderball go crazy) or become a "hold slider" is abuse of the hitobject's intended use and is not allowed.

11. 02:55:422 (4) - You should add a clap on the start of this slider for the sake of consistency.
12. 02:57:871 (1,3,5) - These whistles are way to quiet, I can hardly hear them, I recommend making them a bit louder, so that players notice the hitsound easily and are able to play the pattern accurately.
13. 02:59:707 (7,1) - These two sliders aren't perfectly parallel, which looks untidy and messy. I would fix this by curving (1) a bit less or by curving (7) a bit more.
14. 03:01:544 (3) - Unrankable reverse arrow, it is stacked beneath a few other objects.
15. 03:49:146 (1,2) - Adjust this bow pattern a bit so that the end of (2) is not being overlapped. Bow patterns look messy if an end of the straight slider is overlapped, so I would really consider fixing this.

[Insane]
In this difficulty, I've noticed that some notes are silent/next to silent (5% volume). This is unrankable:

Ranking Criteria wrote:

Hitsounds from notes and sliders must be audible. These provide feedback for the player, and having them silent in a rhythm game doesn't make much sense. If you don't like the default sounds, then find replacements rather than silencing notes.

I suggest going over all these notes and add a sound to all the silent ones.

1. 00:02:462 - You should add a note here for two reasons; first of all you can clearly hear a piano note go off, which indicates a note, not adding one will make gameplay feel odd, and secondly, players will hit the next slider too early thanks to how it a whole beat away from the other sliders, yet it is the same distance. Adding a note will fix that, so I suggest you do it.
2. 00:16:238 (1,2) - Adjust this bow pattern a bit so that the head of (2) is not being overlapped. Bow patterns look messy if an end of the straight slider is overlapped, so I would really consider fixing this.
3. 00:21:442 (1,2,3,4) - I'm not sure what this shape is trying to represent. You should move (4) to x:331 y:140 for a nicer and more appealing parallelogram shape.
4. 00:42:564 (3,4) - The hitsounding would be more consistent if you added the two claps at (3) instead of (4).
5. 02:04:605 (4,1) - Why does the clap land on (1), which is on a red tick? That just sounds odd and inconsistent. It would be more consistent if you added one to the end of (4) instead, since that lands on a stronger beat, as well as being a lot more consistent.
6. 02:19:299 (3,4,5,6) - It would look nicer if you made this set of sliders bezier because this way, you'll get to make (6) parallel with 02:20:524 (1) - which will look much nicer imo.
7. 02:21:595 (5,6,7) - It'll flow better if you ctrl+g (6). The motion the cursor makes will become circular, which plays very smooth compared to what you have now.
8. 02:56:034 (1,2) - These sliders are a bit too close to each other, I would move them slightly further apart so that the map doesn't feel cramped and messy.
9. 02:56:646 (3,2) - Pretty much the same as above, feels a bit cramped due to them being too close. Move them slightly further.
10. 03:11:952 (1,2) - I'm not too fond of the overlap over the end of (2), overlaps like these look messy and untidy.

Well, that's it from me! Overall, I've noticed that this map contains many unrankable issues, such as the hidden reverse arrows. It is very important to fix these, or else the map probably won't get ranked. Familiarise yourself with the ranking criteria here.

Good luck!

1. 00:02:462 - You should add a note here for two reasons; first of all you can clearly hear a piano note go off, which indicates a note, not adding one will make gameplay feel odd, and secondly, players will hit the next slider too early thanks to how it a whole beat away from the other sliders, yet it is the same distance. Adding a note will fix that, so I suggest you do it. Added.
2. 00:16:238 (1,2) - Adjust this bow pattern a bit so that the head of (2) is not being overlapped. Bow patterns look messy if an end of the straight slider is overlapped, so I would really consider fixing this.Adjusted.
3. 00:21:442 (1,2,3,4) - I'm not sure what this shape is trying to represent. You should move (4) to x:331 y:140 for a nicer and more appealing parallelogram shape.Okay.
4. 00:42:564 (3,4) - The hitsounding would be more consistent if you added the two claps at (3) instead of (4).Idk what i was thinking lol. fixed.
5. 02:04:605 (4,1) - Why does the clap land on (1), which is on a red tick? That just sounds odd and inconsistent. It would be more consistent if you added one to the end of (4) instead, since that lands on a stronger beat, as well as being a lot more consistent.
6. 02:19:299 (3,4,5,6) - It would look nicer if you made this set of sliders bezier because this way, you'll get to make (6) parallel with 02:20:524 (1) - which will look much nicer imo.Ill try this, i think it's fine as is, but this isn't a bad idea because of the parallel.
7. 02:21:595 (5,6,7) - It'll flow better if you ctrl+g (6). The motion the cursor makes will become circular, which plays very smooth compared to what you have now.I like this better . I don't like circular motion when sliders are centered around the origin .
8. 02:56:034 (1,2) - These sliders are a bit too close to each other, I would move them slightly further apart so that the map doesn't feel cramped and messy.
9. 02:56:646 (3,2) - Pretty much the same as above, feels a bit cramped due to them being too close. Move them slightly further.Moved.
10. 03:11:952 (1,2) - I'm not too fond of the overlap over the end of (2), overlaps like these look messy and untidy.Remapped this entire part. I found the long sliders to be rather boring and unfitting for an Insane, even despite this music being much quieter. I've split them into 4 sliders rather than 2.

Well, that's it from me! Overall, I've noticed that this map contains many unrankable issues, such as the hidden reverse arrows. It is very important to fix these, or else the map probably won't get ranked. Familiarise yourself with the ranking criteria here.

Good luck!

Thank you for this very detailed and helpful mod!!

Hitsound Mod

very impressive pattern for me, well i dont care bout rankable or not XD haha since most modder above say so orz
btw i can see that u dont use hitsound at all BUT u do add some default hitsound,
so i have a very damn good and fast hitsound mod, follow the step below ^^

[Hitsound]

• First download this 4 , rename and put inside song folder.

1. Download and rename this into soft-hitclap.wav
   Rename into soft-hitnormal.wav
   Rename into normal-hitnormal.wav
   Rename into normal-hitclap.wav
   then put all of them inside song folder ^^
2. Then on every dif, press F6 > CTRL+A > select Audio tab, > choose Custom1 > ok.
   Check your whole dif's hitsound ^^ , im sure it will sounds whole better if u follow the above step just right...
3. THat's all thou, feel free to adjust the volume, or catch me in-game if u have things to ask...
   finally it might be a good idea to use and add silent hitsound on soft-sliderslide and normal-sldierslide as well...

^^b GL for ranked....
very nice std dif...

Applied the changes! Thank you so much!! I really like the hit sounds. I might have to do some slight volume adjustments but that's about it~

Hi~~
here for the M4M :3

Really nice song with superable hitsound style(though few can be better), big love~

[insane]
first you can use a none-sound track for the slidertick and sliderslide(pm your mail if you need it, I have)
the begining part of the song I suggest vol down for 10% or 5%
00:09:350 (3,4) - a little bit unflow
00:17:922 (4) - have a turn at 00:18:228 ,using new shape
00:21:442 hitsoung normal after the time is inaudible, try another?
00:50:217 (3) - try push it at the begin of 00:50:524 (1) -
00:58:024 (2,4,6,8) -

01:07:207 (7) - x120 y328
01:21:902 (10) - x112 y176
01:28:789 (2,3,4) - seems strange for me, maybe change the shape of stream?
01:58:075 (2,3,2,3) - remove finish sound
02:12:182 (4,5) -

03:06:901 (1) - hum, maybe choose to fit the voice using shorter slider and circle?
03:13:789 (4,5) -

03:59:707 (1) - perfect shape, welldone!
04:04:452 (1) - start here 04:04:529

[Hard]
00:02:615 (2) - forgot to use the ar circle?
00:13:024 (5,6) - not in the same curve
00:14:095 (1,2) -

00:40:268 (9) - a voice clap starts at 3/4 ,so better change it
01:19:146 (1) - too short
01:20:217 (1) - remove the whistle or turn down the vol
01:35:524 (5,6,7) -

02:05:064 (1) -

02:28:330 (5) - only use finish sound at the end
03:27:258 (1) - ^ for the start
03:39:809 (2,3) - maybe too far away?
03:54:503 (2) - remove finish sound

[Normal]
pretty fine for me, little to fix:
00:48:075 (1) - x132 y124
00:56:952 (1) -

01:49:299 (1) - x424
02:50:524 (1,2) - not in same curve
03:54:350 (1,2) - use a slider
04:02:288 - don't use such a long spinner in easy & normal

[Easy]
no obvious problem, seems fine~

Hope these could help you~

00:17:922 (4) - have a turn at 00:18:228 ,using new shapeRedid the slider here .
00:21:442 hitsoung normal after the time is inaudible, try another?K
00:50:217 (3) - try push it at the begin of 00:50:524 (1) - Tried, don't really like the way it flows sry .
00:58:024 (2,4,6,8) - I think this is fine. I want this pattern slightly more angled, not so vertical.

01:07:207 (7) - x120 y328K
01:21:902 (10) - x112 y176I like this actually xD. Changed it, though the coordinates you gave were kinda off. (But I know what you meant)
01:28:789 (2,3,4) - seems strange for me, maybe change the shape of stream?I think this is okay, but ill try and curve the stream a bit.
01:58:075 (2,3,2,3) - remove finish soundYea too many.
02:12:182 (4,5) - This is okay. Keeping.

03:06:901 (1) - hum, maybe choose to fit the voice using shorter slider and circle?I try, but I kind of like it like this .
03:13:789 (4,5) - Not a bad idea. Will definitely try. I only worry that angle of curve on 5 will create bad flow into later sliders. Will play around with angles.

03:59:707 (1) - perfect shape, welldone!Arigatou~
04:04:452 (1) - start here 04:04:529Wow, you're right. Will change on all my difficulties too!

[Hard]
00:02:615 (2) - forgot to use the ar circle?Its the opening section. So quieter, and less distance spacing. Will keep, since rest of this section also has smaller-than-normal blankets.
00:13:024 (5,6) - not in the same curveFixed it a bit. Less curve.
00:14:095 (1,2) - Yea this is better thnx~

00:40:268 (9) - a voice clap starts at 3/4 ,so better change it
01:19:146 (1) - too shortI will check if it's too short. Imo it's okay, but i also understand this is Hard diff, so might just take the spinner out.
01:20:217 (1) - remove the whistle or turn down the volRemoved whistle
01:35:524 (5,6,7) - Aligned them better.

02:05:064 (1) - Okay.

02:28:330 (5) - only use finish sound at the endFixed
03:27:258 (1) - ^ for the startK
03:39:809 (2,3) - maybe too far away?Remapped around here. I wanted the jump to be on the 2, not the 3 anyways.
03:54:503 (2) - remove finish soundOkay

[Normal]
pretty fine for me, little to fix:
00:48:075 (1) - x132 y124Fixed. Also moved 2 to even out spacing.
00:56:952 (1) - Kay. I like this, better flow .

01:49:299 (1) - x424
02:50:524 (1,2) - not in same curveFixed it up a bit.
03:54:350 (1,2) - use a slider Yea this makes a lot of sense haha.
04:02:288 - don't use such a long spinner in easy & normalI don't know about this. I know short spinner is bad, but long spinner should be okay. Not really any way to reduce this/cut in half, or map anything else either . I don't want to use the slider I made for Insane because its too difficult for beginners to follow the path imo .

[Easy]
no obvious problem, seems fine~Great ^^.

Hope these could help you~

Wow... haha I didn't even know lol~ Thanks ^^.

Oh shit, I promised I will recheck, my OS corrupted my whole C:\ drive so I didn't have it good lately, I will mod it now again and edit this post.

[General]

1. The 'hit' for the soft and normal custom sets is too low, I can barely hear it while playing, it is necessary to to hear them clearly to have feedback.
2. The slidertick is really strong and it is unencessary in almost 90% of the places, you have to either manually mute it in the slider using new inherited points, or modify the sliderticks, or the hitsound itself.

[Insane]

1. 00:06:136 (4,5) - Still, try to blanket those a bit better, the curve in 5 is not following the circlehit properly. Look closely: http://puu.sh/ek56Z/6f5183a274.jpg
2. 00:06:442 (5) - The whistles don't fit here at all..
3. 00:08:891 (1) - One whistle in the start is enough, the second one is unnecessary. If you want to follow the music more properly add an other whistle at the start of 00:09:350 (3) -
4. 00:12:564 (4) - I remember you said you play without hitsounds, do you add hitsounds by mistake or was this intentional? The clap is wrong and shouldn't be used here.
5. I think you should activate the hitsound and go over them again, some are random and some don't fit at all..
6. 00:30:932 (1) - Move to x=132 to flow with the stream better
7. I think I noticed something, when you want to add a hitsound to a slider, press either on the HEAD or the END of it, after it glows red, pick the hitsound, because it seems like you attach hitsounds to the sliders themselves..
8. 03:46:238 (1) - If you can make the slider go a bit more after the circle it'd look much much better.
9. 03:54:350 (1) - There's no beat on the end of it and it feels too forced, I'd remove it.
10. 03:59:707 (1) - It looks cool but it ends and starts in awkward places, the finish isn't necessary in the beginning(it is a finish!), and the slider ends on a place that has no beat at all, if you can make it end on the place where the spinner starts, that'd be great.

Overall this diff is fun and nice to play but the hitsounds should be improved a bit here.

[Hard]

1. 00:06:442 (1,2) - You should try to improve the blanket here.
2. 00:10:115 (3,4) - Change those sliders, they don't look the best and they blanket each other really poorly.
3. 00:15:779 (6,1) - Blanket can be improved here too.
4. 00:17:922 (3,4) - A slider that starts on 3 and ends on the start of 4 will sound much better because it follows the vocals more properly here.
5. 00:37:360 (5,6) - It is really cool but it is tooooo much confusing for Hard, you should change it.
6. 00:40:728 (1,2,3,4) - You don't follow the vocals here, and if you want to follow the beat you are missing strong beats and it plays really awkwardly.
7. 00:43:177 (1,2,3,4) - Try to avoid those overlaps.
8. 00:52:513 - Why isn't there a note? The pause in kiai time is just awkward, this part is intense, follow the beat!
9. 00:56:952 (2,3) - You can improve the blanket here.
10. 01:23:585 (5,6) - ^
11. 01:57:871 (7) - Use 1/3 BSP.. It is a slider. Also, why soft hitsounds? There are clearly strong drums, you should put some hitsounds here as well.
12. 02:24:503 (1,2,3,4,5) - A bit random...
13. 02:45:013 (1,3) - Stack properly.
14. 03:06:901 (1) - Blanket better.
15. 03:08:126 (3) - ^
16. 03:10:881 (6) - ^
    
    The hitsounds need some work here too

Eitherway, sorry about forgeting the re-check, if you have any question feel free to ask, good luck!

Hi! modder came from: p/3583378#p3583378

General

1. since it is a pretty long map, im going to find the minor things that needs to be changed.
   normally i do it but... it would take a damm long time to do that hope you understand o.0
2. i dont know if you just didn't wanna do it or was going to do it, but are you gonna give the NC colors?
   it might help a bit, and the map looks imo better that way

Easy

1. 00:24:809 (5) - NC here
2. 00:27:258 (1) - remove NC
3. 00:30:932 (1,2) - blanket can be better
4. 00:32:156 (2,3) - ^
5. 00:50:524 (1,2) - ^ (use approach cirlce of 00:53:585 (2) - at 00:53:126 )
6. 01:07:360 (2) - i think you shouldn't follow the vocals here. you could try this:
   
   01:07:054 (1) - this is the first note of this combo, 01:07:666 (2) - is were the first slider begins.
   the second slider remains the same.
7. 01:20:217 (1) - i think you should place it on: 01:19:911 (1) - i read some music stuff, and it concludes that you shouldn't skip
   the (in this case the big white line) too often. anyway, i think you should follow the beat instead of the vocals here :p
8. 01:51:748 (3,1) - switch NC
9. 02:26:646 (2) - i think it is better to remove this one and set the previous slider at: 02:26:034 (1) - , so it will end on the removed circle.
   again, has to do wtih vocals and beats.
10. 02:48:381 (1) - ^ (i hope you know what i mean here :p)
11. 03:17:768 (1) - ^
12. 02:57:871 (1) - i couldnt help to not notice this, but the hitsound you use here is not in sync.
    i dont think you can use a finish hitsound here, but im no expert in hitsound so your choice.

Normal

1. i think you should reduce the HP drain rate from 5,0 to 4,0. it is pretty high for normal.
2. 00:02:615 (3) - slider has the wrong DC on it. try to move it a bit to the right.
3. 00:03:381 (1,2) - switch NC
4. 00:05:371 (1,2) - ^
5. 00:16:238 (4,1) - ^
6. 00:48:075 (1,2,3) - now i now why the hitsounds bothers me! they are way too loud, you need lower the volume.
7. 00:49:758 (1) - you dont want to overuse slider that begins on a red line(called ofbeats). try this:
   
8. 01:03:993 (5) - i think this slider is hard to see. when i played it, i expected it to be as long as the previous one. this one is a bit odd.
   you need to or change the length of it, or place it somehwere else.
9. 01:27:258 (1) - ^
10. 01:20:217 (1) - let this slider end on: 01:20:524
11. 01:23:279 (1,2) - switch NC
12. 01:23:279 (1,3) - blanket could be better. (use ctrl + g on slider 1 and approach circle at: 01:22:973 from 1)
13. 01:56:646 (5) - NC here
14. 01:58:483 (1,2) - switch NC
15. 02:16:238 (1) - if you add a hitsound here, maybe it's better if you do it on all three sliders.
16. 02:19:146 (1) - better place it on:02:18:993 (1) - dont follow vocals, beat is better imo.
17. 02:27:258 (5) - NC here
18. 02:57:258 (1,2) - switch NC
19. 03:00:320 (3) - NC here
20. 03:01:850 (1) - remove NC
21. 03:02:768 (4) - NC here
22. 03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - it is a nice flower ( it really is ), but its quit hard to see which slider to follow first and to continue.
    you need to place them differently (sorry for your flower )
23. 03:55:575 (4,5,6) - ^
24. 03:12:564 (1,2) - blanket can be better.
25. 03:27:258 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - plz. dont use those hitsounds here. it kinda ruins the music imo.
26. 03:38:891 (1,2) - switch NC.

Hard

1. 00:21:136 (1) - use whistle hitsound here
2. 00:21:442 (2) - i feel like this slider is hidden behind the previous sliders.
3. 00:31:391 (2,3) - ^
4. 00:37:054 (4,5,6) - ^ ( the last 2 especially)
5. 00:55:422 (2) - remove hitsound
6. 01:02:156 (1,3) - switch NC
7. 01:05:217 (5,1) - ^
8. 01:09:656 (4,1) - again, the last slider is quite hidden between the previous ones. there are a few others,
   but i'm not gonna mention them anymore in this diff(it is pretty straight forward repeating myself).
9. 01:40:422 (3,4,5) - ^(this is really the last one i mention ;p)
10. 01:23:585 (5) - NC here
11. 01:24:044 (6,7) - can be a better blanket
12. 01:35:830 (7) - NC here
13. 01:38:126 (4,1,2,3) - if you put a circle on the end of the slider,while not seeing the beginning of the slider,
    it is REALLY confusing. i recommend you place the 4 differently. (you dont have to do exactly that, but at least change something here)
14. 01:52:973 (5) - NC here
15. 01:55:115 (1,2) - switch NC
16. 01:58:483 (1,2) - ^
17. 02:03:381 (1,2) - ^
18. 02:06:442 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - reduce the volume of the hitsound plz.
19. 02:18:075 (1,3) - switch NC
20. 02:46:850 (1,2) - the distance is in my belief to big. it is too sudden and out of the place to increase the DC.
21. 02:52:973 (6,1) - switch NC
22. 03:08:891 (1,2) - ^
23. 03:27:258 (1) - remove or reduce the volume of these hitsounds on these shaped sliders.
24. 03:41:952 (5,1) - switch NC
25. 03:58:024 (2) - ctrl + G?

Insane

1. i can't say too much about this, since i don't do 5 star maps that often. but i can tell you a few things.
2. 01:57:871 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - these notes stand way too close to eachother. you might want to expand the distance.
3. 02:25:728 (1,2) - switch NC
4. 02:37:513 (1) - there are some slider that can't be in a map because it is unlcear, i think this could be one of those.
   if you ignore it anyway the map becomes unrankable i don't know the details, but i certainly would do something about the weird shaped slider.
5. 03:18:687 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - these notes are placed weirdly, i would change it.
6. 03:27:258 (1) - again, reduce volume or delete hitsounds on these shaped sliders.
7. 03:43:100 (5) - i don't think you ever used the blue tickle. i might be wrong, but i wouldn't recommend just putting one note in the song on a blue tickle.
8. 03:59:707 (1) - ummm... when i was scrolling to the end of the song, i swa a giant(butterly?). it kind of filled the screen and as a result,
   i shocked because i didn't expect that. i wouldn't throw it away because it is a nice piece of slider art( that is a compliment ),
   but i dont think you should use it in the map. just do a spinner, it may be one of those slider that make your map unrankable

This took my while, but i at least hope it is useful to you
gl with it!

Hello, here is a promised M4M~ It turned out to a longpost O^O''

[Overall]

[Hard]
At first sight I noticed only some major flaws (as it looked for me, ofc) but while proper exploring its number became much bigger. Also maybe it will take not a one single day to make it better. I liked the song and became too serious maybe.)


So it became a 3.65 map with it, but still ok for hard.) Here is a map http://puu.sh/el1Wn.zip

[Insane]
I just watched autoplaying but I wanted to change a lot of things there, but this is hard for me to testplay so maybe I have no right to say so.) But there are a lot of insane players now so they can help you more.
So I just can recommend changing hitsounds once more (close to what I said in Hard earlier) and more intuitive following to the rhythm/lyrics.
I liked ~50/50 of sliders/circles percentage, nice balance.
Lovely final sliderart.) But I really hate it while playing though xD.

[Normal]
This one is nice I think, I'm not good with Normals while playing, but this one was rather good and relaxing. Following was smoother than in harder ones, or maybe that's because of big simpleness for me. The only things I found to change are ending spinners (see Hard mod) and ending with confusing part:
03:50:677 (3,4,5) - shortened (3), deleted (5) slider and made a repeating (4). https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495597
03:55:575 (4,5,6) - this triangle is too confusing, maybe it's better to make it like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495615
Also maybe these parts, not sure:
01:20:217 (1) - shortened slider till 01:20:524 ... but maybe for normal it is not needed.

[Easy]
Was pretty smooth too, but ending is confusing again:
03:17:768 (1) - slider is too late, moved it to 03:17:462 (1) - but this looks more like an accidental moving.)
03:46:238 (4) - ends too low on the field maybe, moved it up.
03:47:462 (1) - this is very confusing slider.
03:46:238 (4,1,2,3) - changed formation nearly like this: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495811

Well, I think this is all i can say for now. Also if you liked my mod I can help you more with Hard difficulty, just tell me.)
Good Luck with further work~

[General]

1. The 'hit' for the soft and normal custom sets is too low, I can barely hear it while playing, it is necessary to to hear them clearly to have feedback.Alright, will fix.
2. The slidertick is really strong and it is unencessary in almost 90% of the places, you have to either manually mute it in the slider using new inherited points, or modify the sliderticks, or the hitsound itself.

[Insane]

1. 00:06:136 (4,5) - Still, try to blanket those a bit better, the curve in 5 is not following the circlehit properly. Look closely: http://puu.sh/ek56Z/6f5183a274.jpgFixed.
2. 00:06:442 (5) - The whistles don't fit here at all..REmoved.
3. 00:08:891 (1) - One whistle in the start is enough, the second one is unnecessary. If you want to follow the music more properly add an other whistle at the start of 00:09:350 (3) - K
4. 00:12:564 (4) - I remember you said you play without hitsounds, do you add hitsounds by mistake or was this intentional? The clap is wrong and shouldn't be used here.I'll remove this.
5. I think you should activate the hitsound and go over them again, some are random and some don't fit at all..
6. 00:30:932 (1) - Move to x=132 to flow with the stream betterK
7. I think I noticed something, when you want to add a hitsound to a slider, press either on the HEAD or the END of it, after it glows red, pick the hitsound, because it seems like you attach hitsounds to the sliders themselves..
8. 03:46:238 (1) - If you can make the slider go a bit more after the circle it'd look much much better.I like this idea. Increased SV slightly to compensate.
9. 03:54:350 (1) - There's no beat on the end of it and it feels too forced, I'd remove it.I like this . Will keep.
10. 03:59:707 (1) - It looks cool but it ends and starts in awkward places, the finish isn't necessary in the beginning(it is a finish!), and the slider ends on a place that has no beat at all, if you can make it end on the place where the spinner starts, that'd be great.Removed the finish from the slider-head and lowered SV so slider ends on spinner. Had to move spinner back a bit too.

Overall this diff is fun and nice to play but the hitsounds should be improved a bit here.

[Hard]

1. 00:06:442 (1,2) - You should try to improve the blanket here.Shifted 2 a bit more to the left.
2. 00:10:115 (3,4) - Change those sliders, they don't look the best and they blanket each other really poorly.Improved blanket.
3. 00:15:779 (6,1) - Blanket can be improved here too.^
4. 00:17:922 (3,4) - A slider that starts on 3 and ends on the start of 4 will sound much better because it follows the vocals more properly here. I'll try. I like this idea.
5. 00:37:360 (5,6) - It is really cool but it is tooooo much confusing for Hard, you should change it.Will keep for now, i really like patterns like this haha. I would like another opinion on this, sorry!
6. 00:40:728 (1,2,3,4) - You don't follow the vocals here, and if you want to follow the beat you are missing strong beats and it plays really awkwardly.Remapped this part.
7. 00:43:177 (1,2,3,4) - Try to avoid those overlaps.K
8. 00:52:513 - Why isn't there a note? The pause in kiai time is just awkward, this part is intense, follow the beat!It's to give time for players to move to 2, but I might remap the repeat slider... Not sure about this because for sure there is no beat on this note, it would be the slider-end for a slider that began on 00:52:360 - If i remapped this part. Will wait for another opinion though! I think this gap is okay.
9. 00:56:952 (2,3) - You can improve the blanket here.K
10. 01:23:585 (5,6) - ^
11. 01:57:871 (7) - Use 1/3 BSP.. It is a slider. Also, why soft hitsounds? There are clearly strong drums, you should put some hitsounds here as well.K
12. 02:24:503 (1,2,3,4,5) - A bit random...I like this.
13. 02:45:013 (1,3) - Stack properly.K
14. 03:06:901 (1) - Blanket better.K
15. 03:08:126 (3) - ^
16. 03:10:881 (6) - ^
    
    The hitsounds need some work here too

Eitherway, sorry about forgeting the re-check, if you have any question feel free to ask, good luck!

Thanks for another really helpful mod! Yea, i definitely need to keep working on the hitsound rhythm~ Thanks for coming back for the re-check too! Much appreciated.

Hi! modder came from: p/3583378#p3583378

General

1. since it is a pretty long map, im going to find the minor things that needs to be changed.
   normally i do it but... it would take a damm long time to do that hope you understand o.0
2. i dont know if you just didn't wanna do it or was going to do it, but are you gonna give the NC colors?
   it might help a bit, and the map looks imo better that way

Easy

1. 00:24:809 (5) - NC hereK
2. 00:27:258 (1) - remove NC
3. 00:30:932 (1,2) - blanket can be betterFixed
4. 00:32:156 (2,3) - ^
5. 00:50:524 (1,2) - ^ (use approach cirlce of 00:53:585 (2) - at 00:53:126 )
6. 01:07:360 (2) - i think you shouldn't follow the vocals here. you could try this:I like this idea a lot!
   
   01:07:054 (1) - this is the first note of this combo, 01:07:666 (2) - is were the first slider begins.
   the second slider remains the same.
7. 01:20:217 (1) - i think you should place it on: 01:19:911 (1) - i read some music stuff, and it concludes that you shouldn't skip
   the (in this case the big white line) too often. anyway, i think you should follow the beat instead of the vocals here :pI don't know about this. I think it might be confusing for players since there is only a really feint beat on the white tick, and the vocals come in after.
8. 01:51:748 (3,1) - switch NCK
9. 02:26:646 (2) - i think it is better to remove this one and set the previous slider at: 02:26:034 (1) - , so it will end on the removed circle.
   again, has to do wtih vocals and beats.I'd like to keep the circle here.
10. 02:48:381 (1) - ^ (i hope you know what i mean here :p) Would like to keep this too.
11. 03:17:768 (1) - ^ Ahhh. Slider should begin on 03:17:462 - my bad! Now it fits.
12. 02:57:871 (1) - i couldnt help to not notice this, but the hitsound you use here is not in sync.Took out the random finish on the slider-head lol.
    i dont think you can use a finish hitsound here, but im no expert in hitsound so your choice.

Normal

1. i think you should reduce the HP drain rate from 5,0 to 4,0. it is pretty high for normal.Okay.
2. 00:02:615 (3) - slider has the wrong DC on it. try to move it a bit to the right.K
3. 00:03:381 (1,2) - switch NC
4. 00:05:371 (1,2) - ^
5. 00:16:238 (4,1) - ^
6. 00:48:075 (1,2,3) - now i now why the hitsounds bothers me! they are way too loud, you need lower the volume.Lowered to 35%
7. 00:49:758 (1) - you dont want to overuse slider that begins on a red line(called ofbeats). try this:I like it better like this because a 1/2 note in front of the slider doesn't really play out nicely imo when it's right before the Kiai Time.
   
8. 01:03:993 (5) - i think this slider is hard to see. when i played it, i expected it to be as long as the previous one. this one is a bit odd.
   you need to or change the length of it, or place it somehwere else.My style, you see it a lot in Hard/Insane. I think players are still able to reat this because only the mid-point is overlapped. Will see what others say, though!
9. 01:27:258 (1) - ^
10. 01:20:217 (1) - let this slider end on: 01:20:524Kay.
11. 01:23:279 (1,2) - switch NCK
12. 01:23:279 (1,3) - blanket could be better. (use ctrl + g on slider 1 and approach circle at: 01:22:973 from 1)Fixed.
13. 01:56:646 (5) - NC hereK
14. 01:58:483 (1,2) - switch NCK
15. 02:16:238 (1) - if you add a hitsound here, maybe it's better if you do it on all three sliders.Took out hitsound.
16. 02:19:146 (1) - better place it on:02:18:993 (1) - dont follow vocals, beat is better imo.I like this idea. Changed.
17. 02:27:258 (5) - NC here
18. 02:57:258 (1,2) - switch NC
19. 03:00:320 (3) - NC here
20. 03:01:850 (1) - remove NC
21. 03:02:768 (4) - NC hereK to all^
22. 03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - it is a nice flower ( it really is ), but its quit hard to see which slider to follow first and to continue.Remapped. I agree it's hard to see which slider to follow because of the lower AR, wasn't considering that.
    you need to place them differently (sorry for your flower )
23. 03:55:575 (4,5,6) - ^Made it a longer repeat slider
24. 03:12:564 (1,2) - blanket can be better.Fixed.
25. 03:27:258 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - plz. dont use those hitsounds here. it kinda ruins the music imo.I like them, but i agree they are excessive on the Normal as there are not a lot of notes to emphasize the hitsounds. Removed the finishes.
26. 03:38:891 (1,2) - switch NC.K

Hard

1. 00:21:136 (1) - use whistle hitsound hereK
2. 00:21:442 (2) - i feel like this slider is hidden behind the previous sliders.Keeping
3. 00:31:391 (2,3) - ^Keep
4. 00:37:054 (4,5,6) - ^ ( the last 2 especially)I fixed this slider a bit. Still slight overlap but almost fully visible.
5. 00:55:422 (2) - remove hitsoundFixed
6. 01:02:156 (1,3) - switch NCK
7. 01:05:217 (5,1) - ^
8. 01:09:656 (4,1) - again, the last slider is quite hidden between the previous ones. there are a few others,
   but i'm not gonna mention them anymore in this diff(it is pretty straight forward repeating myself).
9. 01:40:422 (3,4,5) - ^(this is really the last one i mention ;p)
10. 01:23:585 (5) - NC hereK
11. 01:24:044 (6,7) - can be a better blanketFixed
12. 01:35:830 (7) - NC hereK
13. 01:38:126 (4,1,2,3) - if you put a circle on the end of the slider,while not seeing the beginning of the slider,
    it is REALLY confusing. i recommend you place the 4 differently. (you dont have to do exactly that, but at least change something here)Yep. Repositioned the sliders.
14. 01:52:973 (5) - NC hereFixed all~
15. 01:55:115 (1,2) - switch NC
16. 01:58:483 (1,2) - ^
17. 02:03:381 (1,2) - ^
18. 02:06:442 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - reduce the volume of the hitsound plz.Yep
19. 02:18:075 (1,3) - switch NC
20. 02:46:850 (1,2) - the distance is in my belief to big. it is too sudden and out of the place to increase the DC.Made the DS shorter, but i feel a slight jump is justified here.
21. 02:52:973 (6,1) - switch NCK
22. 03:08:891 (1,2) - ^
23. 03:27:258 (1) - remove or reduce the volume of these hitsounds on these shaped sliders.Fixed them all.
24. 03:41:952 (5,1) - switch NCK
25. 03:58:024 (2) - ctrl + G?I don't see why :S.

Insane

1. i can't say too much about this, since i don't do 5 star maps that often. but i can tell you a few things.
2. 01:57:871 (1,2,3,1,2,3) - these notes stand way too close to eachother. you might want to expand the distance.Increased scaling .
3. 02:25:728 (1,2) - switch NC
4. 02:37:513 (1) - there are some slider that can't be in a map because it is unlcear, i think this could be one of those.
   if you ignore it anyway the map becomes unrankable i don't know the details, but i certainly would do something about the weird shaped slider.I like the slider like this, but i will have this double-checked to make sure it is rankable, same with the final slider.
5. 03:18:687 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - these notes are placed weirdly, i would change it.Remapped this whole part . After going through the map i agree this pattern is really lame compared to the others.
6. 03:27:258 (1) - again, reduce volume or delete hitsounds on these shaped sliders.Reduced all
7. 03:43:100 (5) - i don't think you ever used the blue tickle. i might be wrong, but i wouldn't recommend just putting one note in the song on a blue tickleYea i took it out. I generally dislike short streams anyways..
8. 03:59:707 (1) - ummm... when i was scrolling to the end of the song, i swa a giant(butterly?). it kind of filled the screen and as a result,
   i shocked because i didn't expect that. i wouldn't throw it away because it is a nice piece of slider art( that is a compliment ),
   but i dont think you should use it in the map. just do a spinner, it may be one of those slider that make your map unrankableOmg... It's the Sleeping Knights emblem!!! The winged-heart!! Not a butterfly LOL!

This took my while, but i at least hope it is useful to you
gl with it!

Thank you for this thorough and detailed mod! Really appreciate it ^^. I didn't agree with some of the pattern concerns, but your NC/Hitsound suggestions were all spot on!

Hello, here is a promised M4M~ It turned out to a longpost O^O''

[Overall]

SPOILER

My opinion is fully self-taste based and also my first mod ever. Sorry for any typos and mistakes.
Overall feeling: I liked the map, but some places were not very nice.
First thing that I thought after first playing - hitsounds are too low... There is no need in map if I just want to hear a song. Btw volume of Normal and Finish sounds is too disbalanced. I think you should to make normal hits louder, it was more comfortable to play with louder ones, but even 100% of those custom sounds are very low. Or is it called 2014 mapping? I'm really not familiar with it. Whistles are a bit out of theme maybe... Or more likely it is my whistle disliking only. Also in whole thing it sounds too plain, I can suggest more accents with finishsounds in kiai sections, the most part must be most powerful and loud - then no point in kiai if not to make it such I think.
I'll try to write it below, because I can instinctively add it and forget to say where it is.
One more point - too many sliders and same snowflake pattern, well, it may be your style but I suggest to replace some sliders with circle formations for more fun.
Btw grid is so tiny that my formations might be skewed, do not mind, just see the main idea.
PS: I may forget to mention some points so I'll leave you my mod in .osu file here. Sorry if you wanted my mod to be more textful in this post, sometimes I can not find words to describe what I want to say ><

Yep Hitsound volume has been addressed, I will have them all fixed up by next update, thanks .

[Hard]
At first sight I noticed only some major flaws (as it looked for me, ofc) but while proper exploring its number became much bigger. Also maybe it will take not a one single day to make it better. I liked the song and became too serious maybe.) I'm glad you like the song . I find when i like the song i can give a much better mod too!

Longmod

00:05:371 (3) - new circle formationI don't want the intro to be too complex. Even on Insane, the Intro was probably ~3 star level difficulty.
00:08:891 (1) - new rhythm following, such a lovely place to follow.) Not sure about this. Though i agree the repeat slider skips some of the beats... I will see if I can think up a pattern that fits better without making it more complicated.
00:14:860 (4) - new formation Keeping,
00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - there it would be nice to make a sound % gradation from low to high with some accents. My sample might be too loud, but hope you got the idea. I get the idea. I used the pattern/slider velocity increase to emphasize the build up though. I dont think volume changes will be that noticeable, might have to increase the volume % considerably .
00:23:891 (1) - new formation. I don't know about these...
00:24:962 (6) - ― l l ―
00:27:105 (3) - ― l l ―
00:33:993 (2,3,4) - ― l l ―
00:37:054 (4,5,6) - changed form a bit. Fixed.
00:40:268 (9,10) - changed formation.Changed slightly.
00:41:187 (2) - insert circle maybe.Remapped this part.
00:46:544 (1,2,3,4,5) - full horizontal flip: last slider should end closer to next circles.Made it intentionally far from the circles to create a jump.
00:48:075 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - new formation.I like it this way.
00:52:820 (3) - longer slider (maybe), suits nice I think.Might be too easy .
01:00:932 (4,5,6,7,8,9,10) - I think It might be nice V-formation stream.Will consider. I want to emphasize the vocals here though.
first kiai+ 01:09:962 (1) till 01:18:840 (7) - some finishsounds added, too much to be written here whole. Added finish, but thats about it .
Second verse+bridge are looking nice.(01:20:217 (1) - ~ 01:47:922 (4) - )
01:48:228 (5) - changing formation and longer (7) slider to follow words.Made slider longer.
00:49:758 (1) - shorter slider to follow words more.Keeping .
02:00:932 (1) - a bit boring sliders, followed words more.No, this part is quiet. Not supposed to be complex.
02:06:442 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - changing placement: upper field is too naked.) Also it is boring to make last 2 circles in same position as next slider (same situation as before). Keeping,
02:08:126 (1) - same, longer slider is seems too... how to put it... slow maybe? Wanted to follow words more.Keeping.
02:10:881 (2) - new formation. Idk...
02:13:024 (9) - circle added, it was too naked there. But maybe not very necessary.Not necessary.
02:13:636 (2) - ― l l ―
02:20:371 (10) - ― l l ―
02:24:503 (1,2,3,4) - those finishes were really out of place, too much. Btw this kiai should be done like first one I think (mean finishsounds). Maybe I'll remake it too. If you want it though.)Made volume lower and took out the finishes from slider-ends.
02:27:717 (3) - new formation, it can be made like forte (circle 02:27:717 (3) - + long slider 02:28:024 (4) - 02:28:330 (4) - ) or like (short slider 02:27:717 (3) - 02:27:871 (3) - + long slider). I like first version more though.Its fine as it is right now.
02:39:197 (5) - added circle.
02:39:656 (2) - removed circle, longer slider 1.Keeping
02:40:115 (3) - longer slider. Btw can be used in previous point.Keeping
02:40:575 (1) - longer slider to follow guitar.
02:42:411 (2,3,4) - boring sliders, changed to circles.Sliders are okay. No good patterns to match the music here if Circles (they were actually circles before, but i made them sliders cuz i feel it is better here.)
Also recommend to replace whistles to finishes in this guitar solo.
02:48:381 (1) - till 02:52:973 (6) - strange following throughout this part... Changed a lot.I remapped this part slightly.
Skipped to next major place:
03:10:575 (5) - this minislider is bad, looks like 2 circles, even knowing that I always failed it. Changed to 1 circle.Remapped this part from an earlier mod. I think its much more readable now so i'm keeping the slider.
03:10:881 (6,1) - changed slider and added a circle to follow piano. Keeping
03:11:952 (2) - shortened slider.Keeping
03:15:013 (1) - start of too-many-sliders place. First short ones replaced with my favorite circle formation :3 But you can make any other ofc.
First part of 3rd kiai is done with nice finishsounds, but why there are no in last part and till the end? Too plain. Changed it.It's fine imo. Keeping
03:38:738 (4) - changed formation.Keeping
03:45:626 (3) - too low slider, moved (2,3) higher. Also next S-slider too.
03:52:054 (2) - changed following.
03:54:350 (1) - strange following... Changed it too till the end.Keep
03:57:871 (1) - this last slider might be replaced to a circle. Keeping
03:59:095 (1) - 1st spinner better to end at 04:04:146 because of last note and last spinner one appearing too fast and it scared me first time that i failed xD. It's just you lol. Keeping

So it became a 3.65 map with it, but still ok for hard.) Here is a map http://puu.sh/el1Wn.zip

[Insane]
I just watched autoplaying but I wanted to change a lot of things there, but this is hard for me to testplay so maybe I have no right to say so.) But there are a lot of insane players now so they can help you more.
So I just can recommend changing hitsounds once more (close to what I said in Hard earlier) and more intuitive following to the rhythm/lyrics. Yep. Hitsounds x__x
I liked ~50/50 of sliders/circles percentage, nice balance.
Lovely final sliderart.) But I really hate it while playing though xD.

[Normal]
This one is nice I think, I'm not good with Normals while playing, but this one was rather good and relaxing. Following was smoother than in harder ones, or maybe that's because of big simpleness for me. The only things I found to change are ending spinners (see Hard mod) and ending with confusing part:
03:50:677 (3,4,5) - shortened (3), deleted (5) slider and made a repeating (4). https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495597 I actually like this pattern better. I don't really like the repeat, since the beats are the same here.
03:55:575 (4,5,6) - this triangle is too confusing, maybe it's better to make it like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495615 Remapped .
Also maybe these parts, not sure:
01:20:217 (1) - shortened slider till 01:20:524 ... but maybe for normal it is not needed. Fixed.

[Easy]
Was pretty smooth too, but ending is confusing again:
03:17:768 (1) - slider is too late, moved it to 03:17:462 (1) - but this looks more like an accidental moving.) Fixed.
03:46:238 (4) - ends too low on the field maybe, moved it up. Still 100% visible and on screen when you play so it's good.
03:47:462 (1) - this is very confusing slider. I think it's okay.
03:46:238 (4,1,2,3) - changed formation nearly like this: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/2495811 I don't like squiggly sliders on Easy, makes it hard for beginners to play imo . So i tend to stick with straight/bezier.

Well, I think this is all i can say for now. Also if you liked my mod I can help you more with Hard difficulty, just tell me.)
Good Luck with further work~

Thanks for the mod~ Sorry I kept a lot of your suggestions on Hard. x___x

inconsistent tag (AIMod)

maybe play around with a silent sliderslide.wav for some parts

I really feel timing is off
at least, quite a few beats need to be moved forward 1/8, but maybe I'm crazy

Insane

left1 = move left 1 point on grid (grid size: tiny)

00:14:401 (3) - move end tick left1 K
00:15:473 (5) - (for 7) move end and middle tick left 1K

00:59:095 (1) - end point x272y148K
01:00:320 (6) - end point left1 or 2K
01:28:789 (2,3,4) - hard to read imo Remapped.
01:32:768 (2) - end point x254 I think this is the wrong slider. X is 392 here lol.
01:34:452 (4) - end point right1 This is okay as is.
01:36:595 (3) - end point up1Also okay.

Thanks for the mod Fixed almost everything since they were really minor blanket issues. Thanks for taking the time to give me the correct end-points .

Hi,
from my queue.
Yup, definitely need to learn the nuances of this whole modding thing. I'm sorry if this is just bad.

Easy
01:20:217 (1) - The end of this slider doesn't really fit with the music putting so much emphasis on the following red mark.
01:27:258 (2) - Make this slider shorter so it ends on the long white mark.
02:23:585 (5,1) - This seems like a bit of an awkward pause.
03:47:462 (1) - The end of this feels a bit awkward.

Normal
This seems generally a bit too hard for a normal difficulty.
00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,1) - This felt cramped to me
01:02:769 (3,4,5) - Maybe too hard for newer players to read?
01:26:034 (4,5,1) - ^
01:33:381 (1,2) - Try to avoid overlapping sliders too much
02:03:381 (3,1,2,3,4) - Again, readability for newer players
02:32:768 to 02:40:268 - Try not to have so many half-beat gaps with such frequency.
02:43:024 (1) - Make this longer to the white mark
02:48:381 (1,2) - A bit awkward
03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - This felt a bit cramped
03:10:115 (1,2) - Try using just one slider ending on 3:10:728
03:48:075 (1) - End on the earlier red mark
03:50:217 to 03:58:942 - The timing in this part doesn't feel very consistent
03:59:095 (1) - Consider ending on the previous white mark.

Hard
00:13:024 (5) - End this on the red mark?
00:49:758 (1) - Try ending the slider on the white mark, then either adding a note or repeating the slider. Because as it is now it feels like there's something missing here.
00:56:952 (2) - As above, shorten to the white mark then add a note.
02:00:932 (1) - Shorten to white
02:08:126 (1) - Same as 00:49:758
03:01:774 (4) - This should start on the white mark
03:10:575 (4,5) - I think is sounds better with 4 ending where 5 starts and 5 starting on the next white mark
03:11:952 (1) - End on the white?
03:26:646 (2) - ^
03:38:738 (4) - Try starting this on the white mark, and adding another circle where it starts now.
03:59:095 (1) - End on the previous white mark?

Insane
This difficulty is right at the upper limit of my ability, so gameplay-wise I can't really offer much. As far as I can tell it seems good but for a few minor things:
01:13:636 (1) - Was having the slider body sticking out very slightly past the beginning of the slider intentional?
02:11:187 (1) - The end of the slider is off the top of the grid. I don't know for sure if that's not okay, so if it's fine then feel free to disregard this point.
03:59:707 (1) - That's a very pretty slider, but it is sticking out the sides of the grid area.


Good luck getting this ranked, you've got a pretty good map here already.

Easy
01:20:217 (1) - The end of this slider doesn't really fit with the music putting so much emphasis on the following red mark.I don't want to map on the red-ticks on Easy because of the change in polarity .
01:27:258 (2) - Make this slider shorter so it ends on the long white mark.Ooops fixed.
02:23:585 (5,1) - This seems like a bit of an awkward pause.Made it longer.
03:47:462 (1) - The end of this feels a bit awkward.Fine to me, not sure what to change...

Normal
This seems generally a bit too hard for a normal difficulty. This difficulty is more like a light-Hard than a Normal honestly. It's why I mapped an Easy.
00:19:911 (1,2,3,4,1) - This felt cramped to me
01:02:769 (3,4,5) - Maybe too hard for newer players to read?I think it's readable because only the mid-point is covered But will consider...
01:26:034 (4,5,1) - ^
01:33:381 (1,2) - Try to avoid overlapping sliders too muchKeeping, I want to map the beats here, but that means the distance-snap requires them to overlap .
02:03:381 (3,1,2,3,4) - Again, readability for newer playersKeeping.
02:32:768 to 02:40:268 - Try not to have so many half-beat gaps with such frequency.Emphasizes the rhythm. I think this is okay.
02:43:024 (1) - Make this longer to the white markFixed.
02:48:381 (1,2) - A bit awkwardKeep
03:05:217 (1,2,3,4,5) - This felt a bit crampedDistance Snap . But I like the pattern, and it's not difficult to read, just some overlap.
03:10:115 (1,2) - Try using just one slider ending on 3:10:728I like this idea. Remapped
03:48:075 (1) - End on the earlier red markokay.
03:50:217 to 03:58:942 - The timing in this part doesn't feel very consistentFine to me,
03:59:095 (1) - Consider ending on the previous white mark.Better as it is right now imo.

Hard
00:13:024 (5) - End this on the red mark?i think this is fine.
00:49:758 (1) - Try ending the slider on the white mark, then either adding a note or repeating the slider. Because as it is now it feels like there's something missing here.Keeping. If anything, maybe Circle on 00:49:758 - and then starting slider on 00:49:911 - But i don't like the rhythmic pattern .
00:56:952 (2) - As above, shorten to the white mark then add a note.Keeping.
02:00:932 (1) - Shorten to whiteRemapped this whole part. I decided instead of shortening the slider, I'd make them two circles.
02:08:126 (1) - Same as 00:49:758
03:01:774 (4) - This should start on the white markLol oops. Fixed
03:10:575 (4,5) - I think is sounds better with 4 ending where 5 starts and 5 starting on the next white markRemapped whole thing. You're right. this plays much better.
03:11:952 (1) - End on the white?Yep! This works too, remapped.
03:26:646 (2) - ^Keeping this.
03:38:738 (4) - Try starting this on the white mark, and adding another circle where it starts now.Keeping. Made this slider have a bump to try and capture the "Tsu" that she sings.
03:59:095 (1) - End on the previous white mark?Keeping.

01:13:636 (1) - Was having the slider body sticking out very slightly past the beginning of the slider intentional?Ooops, fixed this. I must've messed up the slider-head somehow while moving it around.
02:11:187 (1) - The end of the slider is off the top of the grid. I don't know for sure if that's not okay, so if it's fine then feel free to disregard this point.Oooh. Fixed. It's okay to be outside the grid but i noticed the slider touched the hp-bar. Moved it down.
03:59:707 (1) - That's a very pretty slider, but it is sticking out the sides of the grid area.

Thanks for the mod ^^.

hi again! pretty bad how i said i tried to do a global mod and it turned out to be detailed...
anyway the only thing i wanted to say is that i've seen every episode of sao 2,
and i've never seen the emblem of the sleeping knight, so i apologize for that .
and if you remember, do you know where it was shown in the anime?
i really can't remember it at all.....

pretty useless message for you to read. huh.... well i give you a kudosu just to make up for it, hope it will help

Hey! No worries. I really appreciate the mod .

You can find the emblem in the second opening . Make sure you're watching the Konno Yuuki version tho~. You can see the heart floating down during the intro, and also in the background when Yuuki and Asuna are chopping up air right before the chorus. xD

Thanks for the star ^^.

nice butterfly~

butterfly.... ;___;"

handsome-san hurry up and get your mapset ranked D:

Hi~ from my modding queue!

Well, I know you requested for mods on Normal/Hard but I'll do easy too.




Overall: The mapset is very nice, mapped well. Some improvements should be taken into account, but overall good job on the timing and beats of the objects. Only one thing I noticed is that each difficulty (I'm not sure about insane though) had different parts mapped. If I were you, I would map the same parts of the song for each difficulty

Hope this mod helps, I'm still pretty new to the modding world ^^' best of luck to you!
