In Jan 2013, after I watched 4 seasons of Zero No Tsukaima, I was just like those of you who was deeply obsessed with the characters and stories, that's when I found osu!...and I named myself (in-game) the actual anime name :p. Thus a new journey has started from there XD
#0------#90k-->mouse only, Easy/Normal diff with HR/SD only; single tap only #90k---#25k-->mouse and keyboard, Normal diff with HR/DT/HD/SD only; single tap, only double tap when stream circles Hard diff with No mods or just SD only; #25k---#10k-->mouse and tablet, Easy diff with HR/DT/SD/HD/(a few songs with) FL Normal diff with HR/DT/SD/HD(just for fun, normal doesn't gain pp at this rank) Hard diff with No mods(only when BPM is too high && ar>8) or with DT/SD, HD/SD only. Double tap only Insane diff with No mods.
These are the stats from an older version of ranking system(PPv2), they are outdated, but my highest stats (after the update) was still around 20k.
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻PPv2
I was so dam close to top #9999
I also went from pp farmer to complete casual player, which is why I got an absurd numbers of S/SS compare to most other players, however, I usually got derank a lot if I keep having my "perfect" score ranked on those average maps :p
My tips
1. adjusted hands temperature:[cold as ice-----------!----------------------warm but sweaty]. 2. a WORKING headphone. Playing osu without headphone(or one cell is broken) is like watching Live show without any sounds. (It'll force you stay away from osu if you keep hearing the crappy sounds) 3. THE ABILITY TO STREAM. (I suddenly don't know how to do stream/ getting worse on it, (that one day after I played this shithttps://osu.ppy.sh/b/176960&m=0...) and since then my rank's been going downhill) other tips: 1. Adjust cursor size in osu-->option--> (my current size: max (in the past it was 1.0x. )) 2. Mouse precision on. Yes, ON. If you don't use mouse then it doesn't matter. 3. Get a tablet. 4. I recommend using index & middle finger for better pp farming experience, middle & ring finger for casual streaming.
Otherwise, it's totally WASTE OF TIME to play!!!!
Bye Bye, PPv2
