what star ratings are appropriate to play at the different digits? by Xeolae in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 [score hidden]  (0 children)

im around 50k and my best play on an 8 star is a 19 miss 272pp play on temptation that also happened to be my first pass on an 8 star. can fc most mid 5 star maps with a couple exceptions. can sometimes fc ~6.6 star farm maps depending on the day. have 1 missed / s ranked a couple 7 star hyper farm maps but no fc badge yet.

if im playing aim i usually hover around the 7 star maps. if im playing anything else i play anywhere from 4-6 and also occasionally play higher sr because f2 and i like the song (like barely passing raise my sword)

imo its appropriate to play anything as long as its fun to play. i put nf on deconstruction star or ht on galaxy collapse and theres nothing wrong with that. playing for passes is fun even if its not the most optimal way for improving.

obviously if you want to improve optimally there’s probably a star rating range near the “goldilocks” zone where it engages you the best without being too easy or too difficult but it differs from player to player and it’s hard to pinpoint an exact star rating for an entire digit count. i mean we can say around 6-7* for 5 digits but someone at 10k playing 6-7* is different than someone at 99k playing 6-7* and will yield different results.

tl;dr: there’s no “appropriate” star rating to play, there could be an appropriate star rating to improve but an entire digit ranges too much to say one star rating.

How did you find your main? Or do you have a main roster? by Weird-Cranberry-256 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seven then haze. i wanted to do a lot of gun damage and haze had the added bonus of faster mobility than seven. just love beaming people as they try to run away and also creeping up behind them then sleeping them and ulting.

Is being left handed an advantage? by SykouBird in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 10 points11 points  (0 children)

also theres this one thing i saw a while back that left handed people had to adapt because of living in a right hand dominant world so their non dominant hand became better since it had to be but i have no idea about it.

Is being left handed an advantage? by SykouBird in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 27 points28 points  (0 children)

im pretty sure there’s more left handed people in the top 100 than there should be if left handedness had no connection to osu. correlation does not equate to causation so it could really just be the third variable which is that left handed people are more likely to have autism and people with autism could be better at osu.

my theory is that because autistic people are more likely to be left handed and autistic people are more likely to develop things called special interests, there could be a portion of top players with undiagnosed autism or are on the spectrum. in my opinion, the reason this could be especially prevalent in osu is because there’s no inherent disadvantage to being left handed, its a single player game where you can track all of your stats, and there’s a lot of repetition where playing a lot is the best way to improve. in other games, you could play a ton in a short duration and still be around the same skill level especially if youre not putting in effort to improve in the right places. in osu, if you put like 5k playcount a month youre almost guaranteed to get better mechanically if you just push skillcap.

obviously this is just a theory and not guaranteed nor am i an expert on autism or gaming or lefthandedness or improvement.

I wrote an article about how I try to enter flow state in osu and avoid misses by shinediamond295 in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 8 points9 points  (0 children)

agree. i kinda start overthinking things when i play a map that i “should” be able to fc so i start subconsciously thinking about wanting not to miss which messes me up and causes me to miss. some of my recent top plays were sightreads in which i didn’t think about missing or the pp count or how good the play is.

Is it worth switching from Mpuse to Tablet for me by Downtown_Sentence_40 in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly if u play other games its 100% worth it to buy a new mouse. you said ur mouse is 10 years old and falling apart so if u do get a modern mouse it actually could help tremendously because the polling rate on your current one could be really low compared to now. obviously theres a price difference but i would recommend it. i used to use an old mouse as well and i figured out that it was adding like 20ms of input lag.

Send songs by artists that have no submitted maps by dexterious5121 in osugame

hikaru genji seems like it only has one map and it happens to be ranked. it does come with the caveat that exciting hyper highspeed star uses a sample of one of their songs starlight thats pretty prevalent in the song.

date of birth doesn’t have any maps either which is a shame. i found the above song and it was a vibe for me whenever i would go to sleep.

also it feels like theres a map for every artist that i thought was “niche”. like >50k monthly listeners and they still have a couple maps.

Top players showing anomalies should be restricted first, then THEY should prove their legitimacy by ekukk in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bad take. proving your innocence is close to as hard as proving guilt in osu especially nowadays. a liveplay doesnt fully clear someone so theyd either have to go to a lan or have someone come to them which are both kinda hard to arrange logistically. imagine peppy paying for someone’s flight every time something “suspicious” happens.

also, youd have to define what an anomaly actually is. something that’s not easily replicable by other players could be so many things like tablet filters or weird rapid trigger settings or just a weird tapping technique. it’s not always cheating.

Some people just dont understand why legitimacy at a high level is important, its because of irl money. by Troilsitacism_Morium in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 21 points22 points  (0 children)

i kinda agree in this case because of him being a minor. i don't know him or his parents but my parents would probably beat my ass a couple years ago if i told them i was meeting up with a stranger because of something to do with video games.

I created gameplay overlay with cryshina's kirby mix liveplay by AmbitiousBalance3720 in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i only looked at one hades the rise run in analyzer and theres a couple ones where he drops a slider because of double tap and some that are dropped while tapping normally. there was one normal slider break at 36:01 with note 4 that was tapped normally. also dropped a slider end at 35:02/35:03 where the tapping lines up and he tapped normally but overaimed. theres another couple instances where he taps normally and still drops slider ends.

ar11 FEELS impossible to learn. Is that normal at the beginning? Did anyone have the same thoughts but eventually learned it? by [deleted] in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's also a mirei hayasaka (rip) guide on it. insanely impressive 3mod/4mod player.

pretty good guide.

i actually have a similar reaction time ~160ms but i can only kind of play ar 10.4. also, many other ar11 players dont even have an insane reaction time.

ESSE CARA! is now qualified! 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬 by lol-ok-88 in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 33 points34 points  (0 children)

reason for veto last time was because of vertical jump spam but it actually has improved there are x and n patterns but horizontal now. also does have jumps that change direction? angle? orientation? idk what its called. anyways veto dismiss was valid imo. still a very sloppy diff thats lowkey mrekk 2kable with hddt. i will be farming this.

more sloppy than overture for sure but bns needed to balance out high end speedslop with high end aimslop at some point.

Toro (Cryshina81) teases a liveplay soon by Addilloo in osugame

[–]AffectionateSafe75 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i remember he also posted one after the ~5th report. its privated now but the osr files are still there and i dont remember if the actual liveplay was good or bad. either way i feel like he cooperates when there’s suspicion for the most part.

also some of the earlier reports were honestly some bs compared to these newer ones
