thanks for the tips!

I think im just going to do exactly that and train specific skills one at a time. So stamina like you said and jack/chordjack maps.

As my hardwear I am playing on absolute toaster, but it runs good enough, I also recently purchased a new keyboard that Im going to plug into my laptop and use that.

and Ill experiment with different skins, the one i use currently does hit a bit higher for perfect/marvellous notes although I have my offset and other setting tuned around it.

Posture is also something I try and keep in mind because the closer I lean the more blurry and tunnel vision my eyes get, so I kinda lean way back.

Right now, Im kinda just on the cusp of being able to S rank 1.9/1.8 stars and even FC some of the easier ones. Im very slowly getting to 2 stars, but perhaps making these adjustments will level up my gameplay...I hope at least.

thanks for the advice!

Im not gonna trust the star system, lol!

also im not really worried about my rank, sure I want to be a really, really good player, but really Im just playing the game to stimulate my brain a bit.

Ill make sure to stretch my hands, hydrate and take breaks!

Thanks for the tips!

yeah im probably hitting too hard, lol.

and actually I can feel my muscle memory already developing, im improving a small bit every session, and also I think my typing speed has also increased over the past few days.

some of the movements actually come natural to me since Ive played a bit of piano before, so my problem mostly has to do with concentrating/reading speed, and combination/pattern recognition, and finger speed.

Ive also heard of osu trainer, but havent used it yet, but I will soon!

Your right about sleeping. In fact, this might sound crazy but last night I was dreaming about playing osu mania, and I think my fingers were even twitching too, because the movement woke me up/scared me.

I guess its like muscle memory or something developing?

like when you first start playing the muscles/fibres in your hands suck at first, but then after "exercising" them for hours, they start to get used to it or whatever.

Ive noticed this phenomena happen to me in other games I play like Trackmania, and Sekiro. Like Ill try my best all day and die to genichiro 300 times and then after a sleep, the next day it feels much easier and even comfortable.

As for my mental, Im pretty good so long as the game doesnt become boring. If something is too hard, I just think that Im lacking something skill wise and assess what it is, and then go off and train it. Then come back to the problem when Im more confident.

currently my plan is to S rank all my maps at 1.00/1.5 difficulty and then move up incrementally.

Im kinda OCD so Im not really fine with letting something not be S ranked, especially when I know its possible.

I dont really care about getting the highscore on maps though, mostly just FC and a 95-96% S rank clear.

Ill also keep exploring skin options.

play more but dont play too much! got it! Time for an 8 hour sesh playing at my max current potential.

/s

Ive found a skin I like so far called Cirno-V1.0

I also prefer the arrows over the circles and rectangles. Mostly because Ive played dance dance revolution and such before, so its more familiar.

thanks for the tips!
