It looks like Season 19 tries to fix the main problem of the last season: lackluster charts in some songs. Aside from Informer and Whiskey Business, the other songs were given unique charts that give their strong identities. I also LOVE the song choices for the hards (my favorite hard line up since Season 6). Season 19 did a great job making the songs stand out both standard and deluxe. I consider it as super fun as Season 14.
i think this is the first time your rankings have almost entirely not matched up with mine personal rankings: 2 Billion - S Machina Vibes - S Run - A Informer - B Rockstar - B Higher Power - B Shape of You - C How Long - C Whiskey Glasses - D (bordering on F if you wanna remember his controversy)
When you see run in beatstar... you do the complete opposite of what the song name says and dive in head first... holy smokes that is a great chart, flawless... currently sitting on 4p hoping to eventually DP it
I keep coming back to māchina vibes, specially the deluxe version which is a double s+ for me I think i enjoyed this season a lot more than you lol (it's my favorite overall in the entire game) but i'm still glad you liked it :)
I would say that in this season devs try to experiment with genres and add more of house, electro) Beatstar really lacks of these tracks and to me there is the huge field to find something to create a bunch of cool charts. So be ready to get acquainted with more of house songs in Beatstar) Rock songs did great as always, most of pop songs sucked for sure( Agree that Puth's Attention would be better to be added as it's more perspective to come up with nice chart) And congrats Paul on returning to ur channel and wish u much luck to finish your studying successfully ✌
I knew Run would have S tier, but I wasn't expecting S+ for the chart. It's the first chart that has got S+. (Btw, the song not being S+ as well is criminal for me, I completely love the drop at the end).
My ranking: Higher Power: A- Shape Of You: A+ Whiskey Glasses: B- Rockstar: C How Long: A+ Informer: S 2 Billion: A Run: A- Māchina Vibes: A- Best song: Informer Best chart: Run
Great video 🔥 I'd have rated Shape Of You way lower as a song, it's overheard and it made me dislike it even though it's decent. The chart compensates for this though, best Normal from the season. However, I agree on best song and best chart, also Informer Deluxe gets rid of most of the flaws from the standard chart, it's pretty enjoyable. And 2 Billion and Run Deluxe are both incredible charts. Overall this season would have been pretty solid if it weren't for Whiskey Glasses, How Long Deluxe and Informer standard. 🔥
My ratings (Song, chart, general) Whiskey Glasses: C, A, B (meh song, but the end of the song is pretty well charted and fun to play) Shape of You: A+,S,S (really enjoyable song with a solid chart go go with it, the fast triplets at the end are great) Rockstar B+,A,A (Quite catchy, but not my style, the chart is solid and enjoyable but nothing too special) Higher Power: B, A, B+ (Generic Coldplay song, good use of gold swipes and swipes) How Long: B, B, B (Definitely not the best from Charlie Puth, the chart is sometimes slow and boring because of the song) Run: A, B, B+ (The vocal parts are a little bit boring, but the electronic/instrumental parts are GOD. Boring chart from stages 1-4, stage 5 looks like a extreme and while it's AMAZING, there's a HUGE difficulty spike, and I'm not a fan of those. It's a song with very weak and very strong parts, which results in a balanced score for me) 2 Billion: S, A, A+ (This song is absolutely amazing, and in the deluxe version, you get to appreciate the guitar solo as well, which is ❤ I'd give the chart and S, but I feel like the guitar riffs are underchated and awkward at the beginning, which makes it annoying to play from stages 1-2) Informer: S, B, A (This song reminded me of something, then I discovered Con Calma is a (shitty) remake of this SLAPPING song. Again, the chart is fun at the end, but awkward at the beginning, because of how undercharted it is there.) Māchina Vibes: D, C, D (The song looks like it's come out of a "2 hours of music for programming" playlist, and the chart is just swipe spam at some parts, the Deluxe version is even worse at this, it just looks like a bad custom chart spamming swipes. Worse extreme song in the entire game and one of the worst charts to go with it too.)
