osu! standard
number at start = play count
1500~3000: enabled hitsounds -tested- -theoretical-
5300 plays: new mouse and keyboard and dpi: (3400 OR 2320) OR (3250 OR 2500) -> 2400
-ALSO: wooden table -> mousemat around here
-ALSO: started saving replays aound here (stopped around uhh... 8000 plays?)
5450 plays: dpi: 2400->3200 and resolution: 1768x992 -> 1824x1026
5500 plays: started low AR training(AR8) + dpi 3200 -> 2600
5700 plays: started practicing alternating (tried before)
5750 plays: found out i bought the wrong keyboard, got different again.
5800 plays: finished alternation practice, going with alternating.
5900 plays: noticed that it's very often i forget breathing while playing OR watching high-difficulty replays (doesn't seem to be a problem though)
-ALSO: changed DPI from 2600 to 3000 due to wrist strain
-ALSO: changed DPI to what it had been for ~5 years (3250)
-ALSO: started trying to relax more due to general strain
-ALSO: got new chair and table for better comfort
-ALSO: tried out tablet, and it worked pretty well after ~10 plays. -until my thumb started hurting (now suspecting the area was too big)
-ALSO: noticed how much friction my mouse has on the mousemat
IDEA: combine a mouse and a stylus. (mouse grip with a stylus tip)
6000 plays: finally got a proper hold of alternating, now my acc is gud
6100 plays: started practicing sight-reading FL
-ALSO: DPI 3250 -> 3000, as i found it to be a better estimate of my previous one.
6450 plays: finally got new keyboard, found out my old one was REALLY bad.
-ALSO: timing got completely screwed over
-ALSO: AIMING got screwed over
-ALSO: streams are Kreygasm (next day, everything = Kreygasm)
6600 plays: got new mousepad, lower friction (better for high DPI)
-ALSO: PROPERLY trained a map for the first time (3rd~10th time training a map)
-ALSO: got computer glasses due to mild eye strain
-ALSO: DPI 3000 -> 2400 due to hand strain, trying lower DPI
-ALSO: suspects my tactic of following things (read: sliders) too well might be causing hand pain (nah man)
-ALSO: hands have often been sore for the last 3~4days, happy that i go over to my dad in the weekends. need to take more breaks.
6667 plays: started training 4-key alternating (macros for LMB and RMB), practically had to start from scratch (1.5~2.5 stars)
-ALSO: decided to try out windows 10, resolution 1024p -> 900p (due to win10)
6720 plays: singletapping back to OK, triplets going meh, rip streaming
-ALSO: started actually using the small pillow given to me specifically for helping posture (back had started to hurt quite some)
-ALSO: chose to go back to windows 7 (for obvious reasons), 900p -> 1024p
-ALSO: starting to get the hang of 4-key alternating
-ALSO: changed macro mappings for better comfortability
-ALSO: did a 3-day(3-part) tour of BPMs (90~140) to re-learn streaming
6800 plays: KREYGASMS EVERYWHERE
6950 plays: finnaly got gud again
-ALSO: noticed that watching AT do mad stuff (like Apparition + DT) makes stuff easier afterwards. started occationally doing this as part of warm-up (not for long though) (also stopped soon after LuL)
-ALSO: got tired of shitmaps, deleted ~3.000 maps (of >11.000)
-ALSO: went back to my old table due to instability, planning on making my own
-ALSO: started going through my training collections more often
-ALSO: started doing "full time" AR/OD training (planning on adding CS) (stopped again tho...)
-ALSO: got back into HR (ish)
7100 plays: new table w/ help from dad and someone else
-ALSO: started using my own skin
-ALSO: started playing less low-AR maps bc i dislike getting low acc
7200 plays: taped paper to some keys due to oily/sweaty/whatever hands. might do the similarly with my mouse at some point (now replaced by cloth, mouse keys are gonna be full of holes instead) (another keyboard did not have this issue :thonk: - stopped using this)
-ALSO: started playing lower difficulty maps alongside what i usually play due to a tournament making me realise my acc is terrible.
-ALSO: realised how much it can help to do a map several times in a row, and actually using mods sometimes
-ALSO: NEED EXERCISE (physical)
-ALSO: became decent at HR again, and realised just how hard FL is to READ: it's back to step one and then some
7700 plays: finally good at 4-key alternating, hand starting to hurt again. planning on making custom mouse for 4+4key alternating
7800 plays: changed my hitsounds for much better
8000 plays: almost got first HR FC in over a year (~4 stars)
8300 plays: started using my new headphones (ON2 monitor) despite knowing my current setup will effectively make it sound worse (old headset (Siberia V3) had crackling)
-ALSO: realised playing for fun really is the most fun... wow such logic (but also that playing competitively makes you realise what equipment you want)
-ALSO: got proper thing to hold my microphone. BOOM, PROFESSIONAL-LOOKING
-ALSO: started getting more cramps in my left hand, moving 1 key reduced the issue
-ALSO: started training my fingers, hands and arms with a gyro-thing and pushups (almost daily)
-ALSO: trying to remember to breathe during gameplay
-ALSO: noticed using warm water instead of cold water to wash your hands can mildly improve stamina (but can also make them too dry...)
8500 plays: farmed for the first time (to get minimum 100k rank to get in my 2nd tournament so far) (didn't make it bc ragequit bc shitty 4key support)
-ALSO: fixed macros so they never overlap and therefore now every keypress actually registers in osu!
-ALSO: found out just how bad osu!'s support for 4-key standard gameplay is, changed macros accordingly (can't be fully compensated for the time being)
8922 plays: **** this **** i'm out (going to McOsu, it has native 4-key standard mode support) (nvm it doesn't, but still better)
-ALSO: found out even McOsu doesn't have THAT good 4-key support... but McOsu + macros seems to do the job
>9000 plays: went back to osu! standard because i found out McOsu!'s support for 4-key also sucks
-ALSO: it seems i somehow fixed the macros (it now seems to work flawlessly) (nevermind, it's terrible) (nvm fixed it some more)
-ALSO: it seems McOsu really does help a LOT (kept playing it a bit)
-ALSO: went back to shige's skin
9100 plays: FINALLY got a 144hz monitor (42" TV -> 24" monitor) (C24FG70) (1024p -> 1080p)
-ALSO: made a keyboard mode where the gameplay is almost fixed, but the buttons aren't
9300 plays: 1080p -> 720p for higher (and more consistent) framerates (also DPI 2400 -> 1600 to accomodate the resolution change)
-ALSO: moved back to my own skin bc it's better for high AR (and potentially also for streaming)
-ALSO: started sometimes playing only with LMB for better fast clicking (didn't work out much, stopped)
9500 plays: made a more efficient skin and started using that for normal gameplay
9600 plays: me @ my PC: SUCK A DICK
-ALSO: went back to sometimes using my original skin, so i might at some point be able to read Centipede
~9800 plays: went back to 2-key alternating for a bit (on shitty laptop keyboard, seems to somehow be better than red switches for 2-key alternating)
-ALSO: participated in my 2nd osu! tourney
~10200 plays: won the tournament (even though it was using my shitty laptop and a G502)
-ALSO: started practicing FL sightreading more (with my special skin for it) (didn't get much practice - which is fine bc osu!lazer will make it impossible anyway)
10800 plays: did my first EZ practice, i think i will continue doing so :^)
-IDEA: try mouse for clicking and keyboard for aiming LUL
~11500 plays: found out scissor switches are at least as good as MX reds for osu!
-ALSO: tournaments help with accuracy
12100 plays: Tried tablet again, this time planning on sustaining training (for example: spinners are now EZPZ) (stopped again - my hand does not like tablet)
-ALSO: got a CRT (an IBM G54), planning on changing the hardware to enable it to run at 1000Hz (mostly for my FL skin to work better)
-ALSO: resolution 720p -> 1024x768
-ALSO: participating in 7 tourneys at once xd
-ALSO: got new keyboard (with scissor switches)
~12300 plays: using my C24FG70 again due to lack of space (moving back to my dad)
~13000 plays: GOT MY NEW PC WORKING
-[line]NO MORE LAGSPIKES xd[/line] WRONG, screw osu's optimisation :/
-still occasionally get lagspikes/stutters large enough for osu to miss ~200 pixels worth of mouse movement
-this means i can't use raw input if i want consistent movement, but oh well
-experienced a bug where selecting a certain mapset caused osu! to reload all the maps (the shining needle castle.... by jonathanlfj) + (Yomi Yori..... by Dokito [DOKO])
-also using my CRT again
15400 plays: put a mouse mat under my mouse mat. This is to help my wrist not get hurt because my table is apparently a bit low for gaming, and it seems to have helped a little
-also: noticed that my input sensitivity seemed inconsistent with normal mouse usage, and found out my windows sensitivity (on new PC) was set to 7/11 instead of 6/11 :angery:
-fixed windows mouse sensitivity
-also: >added a towel under my wrists (my wrists kinda hurt, and i heard my friends were doing it)
>HOYL my aim got snappy from doing that, and my wrists are more comfortable
15800 plays: switching to 2+2 key full alternating
-started around 0.5-1.0* and slowly increased, keeping high accuracy and doing some replay-checking
16800 plays: started properly getting the hang of 2+2key full alt (can do bursts+streams of ~180bpm pretty consistently)
18000 plays: went back to 2key for some tourneys
19650 plays: switched from Mouse 2key to Maplet 2+2key, back to ~2.5* maps
19800 plays: switched back for a while (maplet had an error, sent it back)
-also: started doing EZNC fulltime, planning on becoming an EZNC main xd (i didn't)

general tips:
1: play long sessions (3-6 hours or so)
1.5: remember breaks
2: go for S rankable maps (maps that you could realistically S-rank)
3: analyze plays (maybe while playing - not sure)
4. don't retry too much
5: remember proper food, water and exercise
6: play a variety of maps
7: Please enjoy game
7.5: A good mindset might be to primarily play for the song, with gameplay being "a neat thing while listening"


This section is pretty much in order from beginner->expert, of what i've found to be important

for people starting: play more loool (really though, there's not too much you can do wrong in the start)
maybe try to make sure you get like 90%* acc or better consistently (preferably >95% i think)
*the acc thing doesn't really apply to the first few dozen plays lmao

2.9*->3.0* transition: i kinda got stuck here because AR8 was somewhat difficult to learn. You could try playing ar7.5 maps to help here

3.9*->4.0* transition: again, i got kinda stuck here because AR9 was difficult to learn. and again, ar8.5 training can help get past that more easily

Around here you should potentially start considering low AR/rhythm training, because that can help a lot in general (note: you will probably have lower acc on these, which should be fine so long as it isn't <75% or so). The easiest 2 ways i know of to help low AR/rhythm are:

Method #1: custom AR practice diffs: first 10s of this video and then go in the song setup menu again and edit AR to be around 8 and OD to be around 10 under the difficulty menu

Method #2: get McOsu (free, ~50MB, steam) and set AR to around 8, and OD to around 10 and play some maps

Once you're able to play around AR8 comfortably again, you can also start decreasing the AR further to get better at reading. (although, reading skill is only really useful down to around AR7 for most people - unless you're interested in tournaments)

mindset stuff (mostly for tournaments):
wholesome toxicity

Around here also, being able to play the various mods and mod combinations can also become important, and is definetely important for anyone interested in tournaments (like me ). For tournaments, pretty much all of the mods are important to learn. I won't really talk about how to learn each mod/combination, as that would take a lot of space and i don't feel confident enough to really talk about how to improve at them.

4.9*->5.0*: i didn't really notice a big jump here, and from here on there aren't really any gaps in AR in my experience, so from here on there shouldn't be any large things to overcome in terms of that. (other than improvement generally taking longer, which is pretty normal)

After here, i haven't gotten too far and therefore don't have much to say lol

Speculative stuff:
I think that around here, simply playing the game doesn't yield much improvement, and you start needing to actually practice to some degree.

Also at some point you probably start needing to actually physically train (if you don't otherwise already get appropriate amount of exercise). Mostly in terms of cardio exercise, so your brain actually gets the blood it needs to work optimally, instead of "just work" lol. I suspect this is a major cause of people getting "washed up"
