2. If I were you I'd do without the first and second kiais, since the third and fourth kiais are just more intese versions of those. If everything is a kiai, then nothing is - Made all the map Kiai so I can pass it with Hidden Removed 'em!
3. Only thing for the hitsounds is I'd reduce the volume of the last green line to about 30%, since that last sound is very faint. 50% seems a bit too much - Sounds good to me

[ Cup]

1. 00:12:623 (1,2,3) - Space these out more, currently there's barely any movement here - Increased the spacing a bit, also moved 00:12:912 (2) - so there's a sick direction change for some more emphasis here
2. 00:18:777 (1,2,3) - Making this into a reverse slider would help differentiate it from 00:19:354 (4,5) - quite nicely - Not quite sure what you have in mind here but I've added in a sick reverse slider here that I think spices it up a little
3. 00:19:546 (5,6,1) - Spacing from 5-6 is stronger than 6-1 but the sound on 1 is stronger. - Fixed it
4. 00:55:700 (3) - NC NC mods smh :^)
5. 00:51:085 (1) - Move this note to around x:264 to make it stand out more - Oooh yes
6. One last thing is making some sliders more horizontal could work for making this cup a little bit more interesting. It's lacking quite a bit of movement, so most of the diff is spent standing there, waiting. A few small changes could help it a lot - Uh oh, I'm a noob cup mapper and I think I've been too conservative on distancing and movement. I'll go over this diff after finishing up this mod as it could take a while

[ Salad]

1. 00:07:239 (3,4) - The spacing decrease here doesn't really fit imo, constant spacing would be better here - Yes boss
2. 00:12:623 (1) - I think this would be better as 3 circles, with the third standing out more spacing wise (maybe put a dash on it) - Yes! Think I meant to do this originally but managed to forget
3. 00:43:777 (2,3) - I'd put the dash between 00:43:777 (2,3) - and not 00:43:200 (1,2) - since 00:43:969 (3) - has the stronger vocals. But if you keep where the dash is, move 00:43:969 (3) - a bit more to the right to conserve the momentum of the dash. x:440 works well for that - Moved the dash to (2,3)
4. 00:48:008 (1,2) - Rhythm here could be better. Try doing - Done it
   
5. 00:50:316 (5) - Dash to here - Bit torn on this, I quite like the emphasis from the singular dash here at 00:51:085 (1) - Keeping as is for now
6. 01:09:546 (1,2) - This could be a wiggle like on 00:57:239 (1) - Wiggles are fun
7. 01:19:546 (3,4,5) - would be better if there was a dash on that last note since it's so strong. Try arranging it like this instead (the 3 doesn't move, 5 is where 4 used to be and 4 is at x:68) - Yeah it really is begging for a dash, consider it done
   

[ Platter]

1. 00:43:008 (4,1,2,3) - The dashes should be on 00:43:200 (1) - and 00:43:969 (3) - . The second not as much, but for 00:43:200 (1) - I think you should have a hyper on it - Yep, agree with all this
2. 00:53:296 - Could add a note here since there's vocal and synth on it - Chose to avoid those 1/4 rhythms in the Platter as I wanted to avoid 1/4 dashes. Keeping this as is for now but not entirely opposed to changing it, same for below
3. 00:59:450 - 01:05:604 - 01:07:142 - Same here. Doing this could help break up the constant 1/2 and add a bit of variety
4. Really good platter, nice job -

[ Rain]

1. 00:13:777 (4) - Since this is a pretty important sound It'd be better to have some more movement on it. Something more like - I really like how the lack of movement here adds to the emphasis on 00:14:162 (1) - and the beginning of what was once a great Kiai adored by many. I've curved the slider a bit more but overall it's pretty much the same
   
2. 00:29:162 (5) - You could add a dash here with similar spacing to 00:27:527 (6,7) - Squeezed it in there
3. 00:43:200 (1,3) - Once again these two notes should be getting the hypers/dashes, they are much more important than 00:43:008 (4,2) - - Atleast I'm being consistent here... consistently wrong
4. 01:17:239 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1) - In order to have a better buildup here I'd make 01:17:527 (2,3) - and 01:18:296 (2,3) - into regular dashes, so the intensity can gradually increase - Hmm, I really want to keep the symmetry here so I'ved moved 01:18:296 (2,4) - further out to the sides increasing the distance instead of reducing it earlier, should help create that buildup effect and hopefully isn't too hard for this diff - EDIT - Didn't really consider the Overdose when making these changes so I've gone back to it, it's now even more like how it was before but with some increased distances much like the Overdose but less intense
5. Really fun and energetic rain -

Overdoses are a myth, they're not real - Then how can PP be real if Overdoses aren't real??!?!

Good luck with the set! Stop maqcking the mpas gud its hard 2 mod k thx - :D Thanks for the mod, love you

throughout the cup and salad difficulties (the kiai sections are actually fine for the most part), the hitsounding patterning doesn't really make sense. i included a few suggestions for the cup to get you on the right track, but you should try redoing both difficulty's hitsounding with clear patterning in mind.

cup
overall this cup is very dense. there are some sections you should simplify in order to make it more approachable to new players. in many cases utilizing 1/1 sliders would be an efficient solution. - Applied everything apart from the hitsound suggestions as I didn't do the hitsounds for this so I'll get my guy on this when he has the time
00:03:392 (1,2,3,4,5) - there are too many notes in this pattern.
00:06:469 (1,2,3,4,5) - same as above.
00:16:469 (2) - add a clap to the slider tail.
00:18:777 (1,2,3) - this pattern should be a more simple shape with less movement. while the easiest way to play this is to stand in the center and not move, new players will try to move on each note which is fairly difficult.
00:24:931 (1,2,3,4,5) - too many notes in this pattern.
00:32:623 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1) - this entire section is left-right-left-right over and over again. while cups should be simple, you should try something a bit more unique here!
00:34:162 (1) - remove the whistle and finish from the slider tail and add a clap instead.
00:34:931 (2) - remove the whistle from the head and replace it with a clap, and remove the clap from the tail and replace it with a whistle.
00:49:546 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1) - way too many notes here, try using a mix of some 1/1 sliders and 1/2 notes in here.
00:56:469 (2) - based on the pattern you've been using throughout this map, this note should be a 1/2 reverse slider.
01:04:162 (2) - this head of this slider should be a whistle, not a clap.
01:04:162 (2) - the tail of this slider should have a clap at the end
01:08:777 (2) - this one should be as well!.
01:16:469 (2) - add a whistle to the head of this slider.
01:18:777 (1,2,3,4,5) - too many notes here again
01:22:623 (2) - add a clap to this slider tail.
01:24:931 (1,2,3,4,5) - too many notes.
01:28:777 (2) - add a clap to this slider tail.
01:31:085 (1,2,3,4,5) - too many notes.
01:34:162 (1,2,3,4,5) - too many notes.
01:35:316 (1) - I think this would sound a lot better if it was just a circle instead of a slider. there isn't much sound at the end to justify a slider.

salad
this plays more or less like a light platter rather than a regular salad, so try making the difficulty less dense and reducing the amount of large jumps. Hmm, suppose I've missed the mark here and make something too difficult for a Salad. I'll see about getting some help and advice with this before blindly blundering through it again and just making it worse
00:34:162 (4,5,1) - instead of a jump from 00:34:354 (5,1) - , try making a jump from 00:33:969 (3,4) - instead.
01:34:162 (1,2,3,4) - sounds very overmapped

platter
while i had many issues with the cup difficulty, moving onto the platter i can see this is where your mapping skills truly start to shine! -
NC mod incoming tho... - Always good to know I'm still brain dead with NC, all NC suggestions applied
00:15:700 (4) - make this a NC, and remove the NC on 00:16:085 (1) -
00:18:777 (4) - make this a NC, and remove the NC on 00:19:162 (1) -
00:21:854 (1) - make this a NC, and remove the NC on 00:22:239 (1) -
01:15:700 (1) - this would be a lot nicer if it was as curved as 01:16:277 (2) - is. - Curved it some more though the droplets seem to be trying to do their own thing
01:24:931 (4) - make this a NC, and remove the NC on 01:25:316 (1) -
01:28:008 (1) - make this a NC, and remove the NC on 01:28:392 (1) -
01:35:316 (1) - like the previous difficulties, this would function better as a single circle instead of a slider. - I added in a quick 1/12 deathstream here to make the end more exciting instead

rain
00:04:931 (1) - you had the right idea by making this as curved as it is, but since it's right up against the left wall it squishes the slider and makes it look ugly. you'd have to move things a bit, but the slider would function to it's full potential if you moved it away from the wall. - Got this bugger to curve as best I can but it's still being a bit arsey
00:10:700 (4,5) - these would look nicer if they had a bit of distance between them (maybe make (5) 1.68x away from (4)?) - Yeah much nicer
00:33:777 (4,5) - same suggestion as above ^^ - Same tbh
00:35:316 (7,8) - same suggestion as above ^^ - Samesies
00:40:700 (2,3) - since this section is slightly less intense, i would keep the distances between these two the same as they are
00:56:854 (7,8) - and since this section is far more intense, i would apply the same suggestions i had earlier by spacing these two sliders out a tiny bit more. - Much prettier
01:09:162 (7,8) - same suggestion as above ^^ - Denied... haha just kidding got you!
01:35:316 (4) - like the previous difficulties, this would function better as a single circle instead of a slider. - This slider has been replaced with a very lonely circle

overdose
this is such a colorful mapset, maybe you should use a custom difficulty name for the overdose? - I'll try out "Chromatic" though I'm not sure if I like it
00:00:316 (1) - this would be nicer to look at and play if it was a wider curve! - Real sliders have curves
00:08:008 (1,2) - the distance between these is kind of excessive for such a soft part of the map - Lowered it a bit, should be a pretty simple dash
00:04:931 (1) - same suggestion as above ^^
00:19:546 (4) - same suggestion as above ^^ - Hmm, did you mean these would be better as a wider curve? I'm going to assume so as 00:19:546 (4) - isn't really at a soft part of the map. Either way those curves are curvier now
00:38:008 (3) - im not opposed to this kind of pattern, but you should make the angle more shallow (such as rotating it -45) - Nerfed it
00:43:777 (2) - instead of a slider, this should be two circles with the first being a hyper to the second (since the second has more intense music behind it) - I managed to mess this part up in every difficulty, I'm a genius
00:51:085 (1) - this would be nicer to look at and play if it was a wider curve! - Widened!
00:57:623 (2,3) - the distance here should be a dash or a hyper dash
01:06:854 (2,3) - same suggestion as above ^^ - Bit annoying to make 'em fit but we managed it
01:16:277 (2) - this would be nicer to look at and play if it was a wider curve! - C u r v e d
01:19:931 (1,1) - there was such an intense pattern right before this, and you let it all die with this weak hyper! make it stronger, even if slightly. - Yeah I agree, buffed it a fair bit
01:25:700 (4) - this would be nicer to look at and play if it was a wider curve! - I'm running out of responses for this lol
01:34:931 (3,1) - you could place a note in between here to have a hyper to (1) - How did I miss this sound, I must be deaf
01:35:316 (1) - like the previous difficulties, this would function better as a single circle instead of a slider. - Slider is ded

hope this mod helped!

mod because i love you - love you too babe

[Cup]

00:04:931 (1) - Chime on this feels like it deserves some extra emphasis. Maybe try x:108, and then curve the slider slightly differently to keep flow afterwards the same? - Applied
00:08:008 (1) - Same with this change in section here, the note is pretty strong to signify the change, so a higher distance would be nice, try x:24 here, and then curve the slider differently. - Applied
00:09:546 (1) - Same as above here, this is a very strong sound so some extra distance would be nice. Try x:328? - Applied
00:12:623 (1) - I think x:196 would work fine here, to keep the triple even and also because the extra distance into it for the introduction to this part would be nice. - Applied
00:18:777 (1) - I feel like the synths here increase in intensity, so maybe try a higher distance to and from this by moving it to like x:208? - Applied
00:21:854 (3) - Missed NC here from your NC patterns. - Applied
00:24:931 (1) - Stronger synth here, so higher distance would be nice, x:124 would work well. - Applied
00:32:623 (1) - Kinda uncomfortably low distance into this downbeat right now, I'd try something higher like x:380. - Applied
00:37:239 (1) - Synth is stronger than current distance implies, and also a higher distance to 2 for the change in instrument could work well, try x:352. - Applied
00:38:777 (1) - More distance here to emphasise the change in section and also the finish hitsound you used. - Applied
00:46:469 (1) - A tiny bit more emphasis on this, such as x:332, would be good. - Applied
01:04:931 (1) - Definitely use a higher distance here to better emphasise this change into the second kiai, and strength of this note. x:108 works great. - Applied
01:11:085 (1) - Higher distance for vocal strength would be cool, try x:128? - Applied
01:20:316 (1) - Strong enough note to deserve more distancing than that, x:160 would work a lot better on this. - Applied
01:24:931 (1) - Synths are pretty strong on this too, so stronger distancing on the back forth would be nice, try x:180. - Applied
01:31:085 (1) - Very underemphasised synth here in my opinion, try x:416 instead to make it more fitting to the music here. - Applied
01:35:316 (1) - Higher distance to emphasise the stronger sound and end of the song, x:288 works well. - Applied

[Salad]

00:01:854 (1) - Just about possible without dashing right now, increase it very slightly to x:308. - Applied
00:11:085 (1) - If this is intended to be a dash, try increasing the distance a bit to make it more obvious as a dash, try x:372. - Applied
00:12:912 (2,3,4) - Move this section a bit to the right, something like x:160, the distance from 1 to 2 is a bit big right now for a salad considering there's an antiflow dash straight afterwards. - Applied
00:17:239 (1) - Try x:104, so that a salad player knows to dash to this. - Applied
00:18:777 (1) - Not sure if you intended this to be a dash or not, but if not, it sounds really nice as one in my opinion for the synth, I think it'd be nice to increase the distance by doing ctrl+g and moving it to x:428. - Applied
00:23:393 (1) - Very small dash distance right now, try increasing it to something like x:332 to make it more obvious as a dash to a salad player. - Applied
00:29:546 (1) - Increase to x:100 just so it's more obvious as a dash. - Applied
00:43:200 (1) - x:212 to make it more obvious as a dash please. - Applied
00:58:777 (1) - Try moving the start of this to x:44 and then curving it very slightly differently to avoid it going too close to the edge, just to make the dash more obvious. - Applied
01:01:854 (1) - Would be nice to make the dash to this more obvious too, try x:64 on this one. - Applied
01:11:084 (1) - Same as 00:58:777 (1) - but reversed. - Applied
01:14:162 (1) - Making the dash to this more obvious would be nice too by increasing it to x:104. - Applied
01:15:700 (1) - Try x:268 to make it so the player has to dash to this slider, and then change the curve slightly so the flow after the slider is unchanged. - Applied
01:19:931 (4) - Hmm, generally wouldn't recommend a double dash ever in a salad, this one might be fine though considering it's both 1/1 snaps, and distance isn't too big, but not entirely sure on that... Change movement afterwards to normal flow, I think that could cause some issues after a double dash though. - Applied
01:23:393 (1) - Try x:408 to make the dash more obvious to a newer player. - Applied
01:24:931 (1) - x:92 would be nice with a different curve that has the same flow afterwards, as this note could really suit a dash for how strong the synth is. - Applied
01:29:547 (1) - Do x:176 on this so a player knows to dash here. - Applied
01:35:316 (2) - x:392, just to have a bigger dash for the climax of the map. - Applied

[Platter]

Sorcerer's Platter is the ultimate disciple from MBomb's Platter. - Sorry all points denied, dis iz my style

[Rain]

00:02:239 (2,3) - Not really a fan of that stop style kind of motion at the start of a rain, maybe just make 2 horizontal? - Reduced the distance a tiny bit, the curved effect from making 2 horizontal clashes with the style of the streams used throughout the diff
00:33:969 (5) - Further into the map, so you don't need to completely get rid of the type of motion here, but I think considering the direction change afterwards, a tiny bit more leniency would be nice, maybe x:312 on this? - Nerfed it

Not really a fan of those stop start streams in general, but it's a stylistic choice so up to you. - So these are mostly an aesthetic choice to make them look more interesting than 4 equally spaced notes in the same direction, I've personally been playing these without stop starting and just holding a directional key and they're a piece o' piss, playstyles though init

[Rainbows]

00:00:700 (2) - Whilst I know it's an overdose, I still don't like the idea of the map starting with a strong HDash into antiflow, maybe ctrl+H this and turn it back to x:272? - 00:00:700 (2) - Covers some pretty strong sounds and I feel the antiflow is a good way to express that without spamming some jumps at the start instead. I have nerfed the strength of the hyper to pretty much the minimum so it shouldn't be too troublesome
00:31:277 (2) - Hmm, I think a normal dash to this would be fine, don't think the sound is strong enough for a HDash to it here, this kind of pattern sounds odd to me here. - Yeah changed this part up, no more hyper here and I tweaked some hypers afterwards as they seemed a bit inconsistent
01:34:931 (3,4,1) - Double HDash at the end here could be nice for the grace sound into the final note here. Maybe try 3 on x:48, 4 on x:296 and 5 on x:500. - Yeaaah go on then

Amazing mapping, would star icon if this had 12 SP but it doesn't unfortunately yet.

[Cup]
Nice cup.
00:13:200 (3,1) - Add some distance here. The gap in time suggests a larger distance. Increased it a bit though weary of catching players out with a large gap
00:25:700 (2,3) - Increase distancing here slightly to show the new phrase. - As you wish

[Salad]
00:10:316 (2,3,1) - This distance jump here feels underwhelming for the hit it represents. Increase distancing slightly. Increased it an absolutely slightly amountly
00:15:123 (3) - This slider sounds a little off-putting without something on the white tick before it. I would suggest putting a hitcircle on 00:14:931, or starting the slider there and ending it at 00:15:508. - Huh, a note on the white tick sounds much weirder to me. I've played around with this for more time than I should have and I feel the current timelining is the best fit for a Salad (that I can come up with atleast)
00:21:277 (2) - Same story as 00:15:123 (3).
00:43:777 (2,3) - The music has a similar phrase to 00:42:623 (2,1), so I would make the distancing larger between (2,3). - I've moved 00:43:777 (2) - to increase the distance to 00:43:969 (3) - It's noticeably increased but still walkable as it's not quite intense as (1) and doing so would result in many dashes near back to back
00:54:931 (3,1) - The jump here is a little overwhelming. I would lower distance slightly while keeping it a dash - Brought it in line
01:02:623 (2) - Move this to x=296. The 3/4 screen dashes are a little much. - Moved it just a little shy of x:296 to keep a comfortable walk from 01:01:854 (1) -
01:03:392 (1,2,3) - I’d rather you follow the vocals (xDDDD) here instead and make this a repeat 3/4 slider starting on 01:03:392, and a hitcircle on 01:04:354. - Hmm it's nice but I'd much prefer to keep to the instruments
01:28:777 (2,1) - Remove antiflow or lower distance. This is too challenging for a salad player. - Brought the distance in line with 00:22:623 (2,1) -

[Platter]
~noice
00:36:854 (5,1) - I’d rather have (5) be a 1/4 slider + hitcricle to avoid too much misdirection movement. - I've made (5) a little more vertical so the movement should be more simplified

[Rain]
This is a plane rane mod, you are one of the lucky few to get one! - I feel honoured
00:12:623 (1,2,3) - This spacing is a bit weak for the huge instrumental hits they represent. - Yeah tweaked it a bit, just being cautious with not making them too difficult as 00:12:527 (8,1) - is a 1/4 dash followed by two big dashes
00:13:777 (4) - I’d restructure this slider—either increase SV for this one slider, or make it into a 1/4 stream. That accents the lead-in nicely. - Messed with the SV, a 1/4 stream sounds too sparse and I really don't want to put a 1/8 stream in this rain
00:17:239 (1,2,3,4) and 00:20:316 (1,2,3,4) - I’m not used to holding dash, so I sometimes miss these. Lower distances between (2,3). Nerfed the distances on 00:20:604 (2,3) - they were unusually high for some reason
00:48:777 (3,4) - A little more movement might be nice here. Keep the antiflow, though. That’s cool. - Increased it a tiny bit to bring it in line with the other dashes
00:52:239 (2) - A configuration like below is more indicative of the transition to the kiai tbh - Praise be unto Absolute Zero who delivers mods from high in the sky, I pray for your safe return to the land of us mortals

Ticker is on 00:52:239

01:03:392 (1) - This might be nicer as a 3/4 slider—it fits how you’ve been using slider length a little more closely. - Hmm don't really want to follow the vocals like this
01:14:162 (1,2) - This isn’t a large problem, but I still feel the antiflow is a bit weak here. - Yeah distance was lower than usual but it's sorted now don't worry about it bud
01:33:392 (3) - I would Ctrl+G and move this slightly.

[It’s snappy, but it’s not Yoiyami Hanabi]
00:23:392 (1,2,3,4,5) - I think you could make this pattern something not back-forth; it’s getting pretty repetitive. Maybe make it more like such:
