yall know it can take decades to develop? you dont know if it's rare yet or not. also, you cant know that stuff without studies. It is most commonly diagnosed in people between the ages of 40 and 60, beyond the age of nearly all osu players.
At first this just sounded like negative edge in fighting games (releasing a button counts as an activation in the same way pressing it does) but the explanation that holding/releasing is an important in-game action and clotiful's keyboard settings were performing a double action on release (activate and auto-release) was very enlightening. I can see why the keyboard manufacturer also needed an explanation!
For those who are wondering, one of the reasons Cloutiful wasn't suspected when he seemingly became a speed player overnight is because the release of the Wooting keyboard has shown that many legit players could suddenly attain way higher speeds thanks to the "Rapid Trigger" function of the keyboard. Rapid Trigger allows you to lower the point at which a button press is registered, so even when you only lightly tap a key it counts as a keypress. Going from a mechanical keyboard to a Wooting is essentially the same as going from a membrane to a mechanical keyboard. One stroke still equals one action at the moment a key is pressed you just don't have to press keys as hard, which is why Rapid Trigger is allowed while the DKS setting Cloutiful used is bannable.
@@CrimsonFlameRTR Normal keyboard takes more effort to press. Wooting keyboard take less effort to press. Less effort - more efficient streams, more staminal, more speed
Cloutiful's DKS settings were bannable because it was 2 inputs from one keyboard input. When he unpressed the second key it would hold the button press for a certain amount of time AND unpress the key.
@@BuenDude The limit is theoretically endless and the upmost limits of human/computer interfacing, AKA how fast you can humanly flick a mouse/tablet and tap the keys to the rhythm as perfectly as possible plus how fast the game can register those inputs without lag/input/delay/the sheer speed causing it to miss notes. Number-wise my guess is probably somewhere in the mid-2000s. 3K is a huge maybe, imo, although the top players might have a better opinion. That phrase just means that had Cloutiful actually FC'd the map (as in no misses) he probably would've had a 2Kpp score or damn near close to it.
@@catsandcrafts171 It's a genshin reference... "Child" is the name of a character from the game. Edit: this guess was totally false. Read comments below.
Thank you, firstly for having me in the video, that is pretty cool. Secondly for pouring the time and effort you do into creating projects about this topic and previous ones. I have never come across someone with so much care for ensuring the validity and accuracy of the information they report on. Many people, including my self, *do* notice, you are fantastic, keep it up.
lol you barely have more subs than me. i havent uploaded in years and my uploads were just dumping random shit on here instead of keeping it on a hard drive. wtf dude, you're clearly trying to be a streamer but failing HARD. i guess tutorials on how to hold a pen arent very popular 🤣🤣holy shit, how fking autistic do you need to be to need a tutorial to hold a fking pen? LOL cringe levels of pathetic.
Am I crazy, or does it feel almost like this could have just become a new category? Cause seeing folks break crazy impossible scores/levels just using custom keyboard profiles sounds fun, if they just had their own leaderboard as a less serious and more silly competition.
@@Ericbombthere is private servers that allow users to cheat and have a leaderboard, usually though a lot of cheeters dont because its not “official” and doesn’t bring in any clout
for any viewers that aren't ingrained in the osu community, this is a copypasta stemming from the creator, who released a statement including this phrase. a few top 100 players got banned within a day of this announcement leading to the birth of the copypasta
All this time I thought, the people with the tablets, where constantly tapping the pen on the surface to make the inputs. And I was like, "How the hell is that even possible!?" But now that I know you just need to hover your pointer in the areas you want and use the keyboard for the timed inputs, it all makes sense now. I might just have to give this game a try, considering I have a Wacom just sitting here in front of me. God I dumb...😅
some people actually do play like this it's called tap x (you do need one of your keyboard keys to play like this though) there's a steeper learning curve compared to normal but some people do benefit a lot with it
some drag the pen across the tablet surface as well that's thanks to the fact that you can disable mouse clicks in game during gameplay to prevent extra inputs but yea you should definitely give the game a try! it's fun to play along music you like
I would like to try this, and i have a graphic tablet, but 1,i dont want to scratch it bc i use it for drawing xd (idk if its really bad for the tablet, but i want to avoid that, i dont want to waste my money xd) and 2, i have really ass coordination, like, i have to use the same and for everything, bc i cant time my two hands, only one at a time. Have a good day.
fun fact: the guy that karl talked to to help make this video (sytho) was also the same guy that made the map that raised enough suspicion for cloutiful for the osureport thread to be made
@@ouey1354carpal tunnel can result from RSI but differs because of how it affects the median nerve. RSI heals easier compared to carpal tunnel, so I’m assuming and hoping that it’s only RSI.
As someone who has played osu since 2017 as well, you described the nuances of the game extremely well! I think a point that is important to make is that rapid trigger technology (the setting the Wooting is most famous for) is still fairly recent in the scope of the game’s history. A reason cloutiful slipped under the radar is that we have seen players make incredible leaps in speed ability directly resulting from access to this technology. Players like Accolibed, Lifeline, and even mrekk to an extent were aim focused prodigies that adapted to speed with the help of rapid trigger. It’s awesome and scary how much people are improving now, so cloutiful’s skill progression didn’t seem too farfetched until the Snow Goose incident. Great vid you absolute legend!
@@tangente00 Cloutiful was just spam tapping two keys at once which takes away the rhythm part of the game. Using a pen still involved a lot of skill for aiming.
@@tangente00so the difference is that the macro Cloutiful was using to suddenly rush the ranks of speed essentially made 1 press into 2: 1 on press and 1 on release, which means a 40 click sequence would only need 20 keypresses and effectively half the effort you need to achieve the equivalent of other speed pros even with rapid trigger and a tablet. Rapid trigger and a tablet makes it less fatigue inducing but you still have a 1:1 keypress to game input ratio and 40 clicks on the game will still need 40 keypresses. Cloutiful's macro trivialises a core skill of Osu, which is cheating. Aiming with a tablet and pen still requires accuracy and Wooting's rapid trigger still requires proper inputs unlike the macro he used
(<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="320">5:20</a>) I remember a long time ago when someone controversially suggested using a pen, but now it's the standard. It's fun looking back at this stuff.
The first time I played Osu! was in 2015 (though only briefly; I just picked it up again recently), and tablet was still the main way to play even then.
This made me feel old. I am old. But this really made me feel old. Glad that I switched over to TASs and finding enjoyment in solving the puzzles outside of my restricted physical performance. My wrists and fingers hurt just from watching this. Absolutely insane dexterity I wish that their hands will not hurt for a decade or more, and may the inevitable tendonitis only kick in like with my age past 40 or older.
Unfortunately a sizeable amount of the players end up developing various stages of RSI, one of them being Sytho, who Karl mentions as one of the sources for this video, who is currently ranked #8 in the game
Im about to turn 40 late this year and Ive been a pc gamer since the days of Doom on floppy discs. Luckily I havent had any issues from it yet but Im certainly not looking forward to it >.
absolutely. the technology in this keyboard is absolutely cutting edge, and several of its unique features totally *are* allowed ingame as they dont violate any rules, and have totally pushed the bounds of whats possible in this game in a legal sense
Sad that it seems I'm watching more "Speedrun Cheater Caught" videos than "Speedrun New PB/WR" videos lately. But I guess it does makes sense, as there's still a good number of uncaught ones out there. Great video as always!
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="505">8:25</a> I do want to point out that this alone wasn't super suspicious, even if it seems as though a person "wasn't built to tap" like Karl said. In fact, the entire top 3 as of now, being mrekk, accolibed, and lifeline, all used to be considered "aim one tricks" before become top speed players. This is especially notable for accolibed, is currently considered by many to be the second best speed player in the game after aetrna/merami/xeltol, who basically spent his entire osu career doing nothing but speed.
@handsomebear. honestly cloutiful's speed scores were pretty gradual too. He also was setting some really insane aim plays alongside the speed scores, before gradually switching to becoming a full speed player.
It sounds like a lot of these cheaters who get caught are just dumb, and wouldn't get caught if they were a little smarter. That means there are probably cheaters who didn't get caught.
@@culwin I'm sure there are quite a few top players that are cheating. However, many many top players have played on other peoples' setups (LAN or just at their friend's house or smth), and always stream with handcam and audio, so we can safely say at least those players aren't cheating. Osu basically doesn't have an anticheat at this point, and it's up the community to figure out who is cheating and how, hence r/osureport
"I do want to point out that this alone wasn't super suspicious" - Maybe not alone, but wasn't it suspicious that he got so much better while refusing to show his hands (when he previously did show his hands)?
I recall the Trackmania drama about using Action Keys. I don't recall whether you have have a video on that, so here's my rundown. For the unfamiliar, the "strength" of your steering is important for all sorts of things, but unlike analog joysticks that allow you a range of different steering strengths, keyboard only has 100% or 0%. Nadeo introduced Action Keys that you could toggle to lock your steering to 20%, 40% etc. What one player named Wirtual did was program custom action keys on his keyboard for a more customized input profile. There was a lot of back and forth whether this was okay, whether it would provide an unfair advantage to people who bought more expensive hardware, and so on. As I recall, his records using those action keys got removed, but given the previously ambiguous nature of the rules on the matter, he was not sanctioned further. Why I bring it up is this: Wirtual, as far as I know, never denied it. He got a little squirmy when there was backlash, but I wouldn't hold that against him. That is the critical difference to the cheater mentioned above, as you point out: Cloutiful immediately tried to deny it and cover it up. He knew he wasn't playing fair.
Further, Wirtual never hid the action key thing. He had previously talked about using his keyboard in this way publicly several times, and that's why he was surprised by the push back. It makes it very obvious cloutiful knew exactly what he was doing when you compare them.
Wirtual actually made a whole video on that situation and eventually set an even better author time on the map without the use of a wooting so props to him
If y’all want a complete breakdown AND a literal live play-by-play video about the whole situation as it happened, watch BTMC’s video titled “the hours before cloutiful vanished”. It’s a long vid (53 mins long) but it goes to show how much work people do to expose cheaters, and how they’re even able to catch these things.
Wooting 60HE+ ftw Not just for OSU, but for any FPS games It’s a crazy good keyboard Not just because of the hall effect switches but also the software and support by Wooting
Wirtual in Trackmania (racing game) got a warning for using custom analog curves (eg. 43% left steering on full press) using the wooting software. Trackmania Devs said it gave an unfair advantage. Cool keyboard though.
I've always appreciated the fact that Karl consistently does his due diligence when it comes to explaining the speedruns of these games, rather on his own or through the help of the respective speedrunning communities.
In the fighting game community, we call button presses that register on release negative edge. Negative edge can help with hitting your combos consistently.
I respect the arm endurance these guys have to be able to tap the keyboard that fast for that long without permanent RSI. I can play fast on guitar, but that's so much more ergonomic than tapping a keyboard will ever be
"Your brain being not fast enough to read it" is a normal thing for osu! beginners. People call it "reading the map", and it's a skill players develop alongside their aim abilities and tapping hand stamina. It's super important, and it's normal to not have as novice.
@@Long-Horse The brain is amazing, its probably something that goes all the way back to when we were just animals, having us focus on fast prey to intercept it
@@artsyscrub3226the brain is indeed incredibly interesting and powerful. The evolutionary traits that are ingrained into our brains from hundreds of thousands of years ago are still vital to our functioning (even if the specific reason for using that function has changed over the centuries)
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="130">2:10</a> I would not even have batted an eye, AI-powered noise cancellation like Krisp and RTX Noise (part of Nvidia Broadcast App now) do a ridiculously good job of removing any keyboard noise.
Something not mentioned is that cloutiful was not just a top osu player. There’s a mod called relax that basically turns the game into an aim trainer, and on one particular server, he was rank 3 out of the users of the mod. Combined with the fact that he’s clearly able to tap these maps, and it’s fully possible that he could have made his way up the rankings through pure aim alone. Granted, it would be a lot harder considering that there’s only two aim player currently in the top 10, but it’s certainly doable
@@NeroKoso fair point, but also remember that cloutiful spent a long time streaming with a handcam before he started using dks, and even in his current replay, people probably ran the usual tests to see if his cursor matched up with his tablet. So it’s highly likely that his aim is legit.
@@alacsonsmth of course I'm not saying all of them would be cheated.. But he could maybe still sneak few in that are cheated. I don't think his record scores were all streamed live. I just get suspicious about it.
@@NeroKoso I mean yeah of course, practically anyone can cheat some scores as long as they look realistic enough. That’s why its so important to have many scores proven legit so that there’s less of a case against you. But people usually cheat out of a mix of frustration and curiosity imo, and I think in cloutiful’s case it was probably frustration at not being able to stream with all the stream farm maps being ranked, and curiosity at how far he could go with this method
@@alacsonsmthwhat’s sad is he probably resorted to his strategy because he physically couldn’t match those on the top and likely would never had. Perhaps if we was built a bit different he could have been number 1 but alas biology denied him and instead of excelling at what he was good at he choose to take preverbal steroids and break rules.
The hardest E+ songs on Beat Saber are well beyond me, but I can at least comprehend them. This is just insane. It looks like something that Star Trek writers made for Data to show off his inhuman skills or something.
You can comprehend the hardest Beat Saber maps? I can't. Even just sticking to the official maps, I'm currently struggling to beat Light It Up, and at the hardest part of that one I cannot consciously follow what's going on at all, I basically have to turn my brain off and let my hands move on their own. My hands have not yet managed to get through it in a proper run, but they've gotten close.
@@elifia I can't even beat the fast maps like Camellia on Expert, much less E+. But I can see the blocks, they're just coming way too fast for my sad, pathetic reflexes to do anything about them. But it still seems like something humans might actually be able to do. (The FOB pack is a fun one)
@@larryb5677 Sounds like you have the opposite problem of what I have then. When I mess up it's usually either because I failed to identify the colour/direction of a block correctly, or because my aim was off. And some songs have these sections where there's just a bunch of blocks really closely behind each other requiring you to basically move the sabers up and down to the rhythm instead of based on sight/reflexes, I *really* suck at those parts because I basically have no rhythm. I don't have any of the DLC, I prefer to just get custom songs from mods. However, I have beaten all non-DLC maps on Expert, and on Expert+ the only ones I have not yet beaten are the Dragonforce one and all Camellia ones except Crystallized (Expert+ Crystallized was substantially easier than the other Expert+ Camellia ones for me).
I will have a fantastic day because of this amazing video this morning. Thank you very much. I love these kinds of stories where not only are interesting cases shown, but details are explained in a way that allows me to learn something new.
My first thought was, "this reminds me of the Ouendan game I loved that I had imported from Japan almost 20 years ago." And then after googling, holy crap it is inspired by that game! Why have I not heard about this until now?!
because Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan's an incredibly niche game, and at this point Osu!'s popularity is so high it drowns out what little popularity the original had on the internet
dang, kinda sucks seeing a lot of comments having a distaste towards osu. But I suppose its normal because the gameplay seems lame and the community is typically degenerate. I really only play for the aiming aspect that I find fun.
Fun fact! The name originates from a very obscure Nintendo game called "Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!" which was the original Osu! down to the mechanics and style
@@oedipamaas2067 To my limited understanding 'osu!' is a strange sort of exclamation sort of a "hell yes!" or a "yo!" depending on context, with a very masculine/assertive sort of connotation. Another example of its use in media is in the anime Hunter X Hunter, where it is used as a sort of energetic 'yes!' by a young martial arts student; sort of 'filled with determination' kind of exclamation of acknowledgement. All of this seems to fit in well with where it sits in the title of the Ouendan game, particularly as it is exclaimed at the start and end of every level. It's a very 'hype' sort of exclamation. :)
I know the subject of this video is the cheater but the real star is the sheer amazing gameplay. I mean the twitch skills on display here are inhuman! Jitter style? 15 taps/sec? Keep entire arm tensed? Look at the skill needed to aim in this game. Madness and so cool. Excellent video as always!
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="868">14:28</a> In real time, the key stroke was held for 42ms. 63ms is the number that appears on the replays due to the double time multiplier set at x 1.5 in the game's internal clock. On Cloutiful's non doubletime replays the hold time is 42ms because the game's clock for normal speed is set to x1.
I think osu was the first skill game i watched. Watching the top players is like trying to keep up with a computer doing advanced calculus in real time. You just started and its already on page 5
@ImLazyfrfrnow that I'm 90k~ rank and can pass 8* aim maps and many techs I'm done with my skill grind, I can play any map I want to and I like how my time spent is now worth
Never heard of this game, don't have any interest in it, never going to play it but I still find your content to be really good and I watch till the end! Keep up the great work! 👊
"you're either built to tap or not" is actually pretty accurate. I was a top player years ago, reaching rank 250, becoming national champion and being world cup captain for my country twice, so its fair to say that I was tryharding quite a bit. I did all that with hardrock though. I literally could not do speed. If I was warmed up and did proper exercises I could for a bit play speedy stuff but it would usually just end up with me getting cramps in my hands or my fingers locking up. You either have speed or you don't, no way to train it. (I obviously mean REALLY high leveL stuff here(
Even looking it on a smaller scale. I know people who just CAN'T do any mario party minigames that require rapid button tapping. The just suck. I'm not amazing but I can do it pretty well. Thing is I've never been able to get substantially better. I seem to always just be the same lol.
@@william4996 Oh absolutely. That's why I always find it incredibly funny when people talk about "just play more" in this context, while they're just incredibly gifted at speed. I remember seeing some 5 digits that were actual speed gods but lacked in every other department. While I was very good at everything OTHER than speed. :P
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="558">9:18</a> elite drummers call this "valving" --using alternating fingers to push the back of the stick "up" and thus, on the other side of the fulcrum, the front of the stick "down" into the head. The cool thing is, the stick rebounds from the drum, back into the starting position, so you only have to do the positive portion of the stroke. Alternating two fingers is, theoretically, twice as many strokes.
It's probably the temptation that is hard to avoid if you're okay but not peak/top of the ranks, and once you're in that mindset and mentality, you're not aiming to cheat, you're aiming to do the best. The problem with skill games is, you can't get better easily. Biology kicks in, Carpal Tunnel, Age, Nerve/compression damage, sic. You slow down, need more recovery time, et al. So there's a need to peak. To hit a good rank, and then retire. Multiply that by every player wanting rank play. But, temptation is always around the corner. Competition breeds inadequacy, and this is the true test of character. Are you the person that changes, or does the competition change you to pull down other people so there's room to grow. Do you start banding together, or pulling people down to get ahead. Do you gather people who are weaker so you feel stronger despite the lack of progression, etc. When you start comparing yourself to others, becoming elitist or changing your perspective on others, etc. Hence the community starts to pull apart others to find their 'magic', in order to gain something from them. Long-term Competition drives people to make irrational moves to advance, the problem being one of crabs-in-a-bucket. Once one person gets a lead up, the others drag them back in because they also want to escape their current position and replace the other person. The wooting keyboard was likely the temptation that drove people to make choices they wouldn't have thought about.
The recurring theme. Genius players throw it all away looking for that extra edge as Karl said. Turning to the dark side. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="160">2:40</a>
That is a false rumor made up to put down video games, think of a guitarist or any musician like that, you hold your hand in much more difficult positions and do much harsher things to your fingers and hands than tapping fast on a keyboard, i have played guitar for over 15 years now and osu for over 3 and my hands are stronger and more precise than ever before, it can cause pain and issues if you are dumb and juts push past a pain barrier which would be the same for anything, a map on average lasts about 3-4 mins long and you can take as long as a break between every map you like, it is the individuals fault if they get RSI or carpal tunnel from any from of gaming or osu or music in general you have to be rather stupid in my opinion
@@Long-Horse "Playing the guitar requires rapid movement of all fingers for an extended period of time. This produces one of the most common “overuse” musculoskeletal disorders today, called carpal tunnel syndrome. Anybody who uses their hand for rapid and repetitive activities is at high risk for getting this painful condition."
@randomdeliveryguy yeah but you can feel the pain building up, and this is when you take a break, if you persist through the pain then of course you can cause damage, it's like saying the gym causes damage to your body, it's inherently wrong but if you go to the gym and do 2000 squads with no break your gonna hurt yourself.
@@Long-Horse Depends, sometimes when the pain comes it's too late. It's not as easy as that, even tho I understand a lot of cases could be prevented if people actually heard more their bodies screaming for help. I know someone who has it and he didn't really start feeling anything until it was too late.
I love your content, your delivery, subject matter, manner of speaking, I guess that’s sort of the same as delivery, but still it feels different, all great. If I were to sign for your Patreon, what sort of bonuses would I get? Is the amount of additional content worth it? You rarely seem to speak of such things.
He actually made a video on the topic, what an absolute legend. Now B(T)MC will have yet another video to react to that's not from within the osu! community.
I've been playing osu for 4 years and I think it's crazy how cheating has affected osu in general. You have cases where top players cheat on purpose to get themselves banned so they can quit (cookizei), cheaters that ended up being legit and become top players (ryuk) , players that get accused of being cheaters that we still don't know if they were or weren't (legendre), and then ofcourse cheaters that get caught and are removed from the game for good(cloutiful). It's not just one type of cheating that occurs like traditional games, it's a somehow diverse and broad perspective on what it means to cheat at osu. Edit: ryuk is a better example than WhiteCat since his situation was different
I will say that Osu! is a game that has a nice visual design, but goddamn, I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it is to develop top-level skills for it. Just watching that really floors me to see people blitz through with such precision when I can barely even follow it with my eyes alone. That said, glad that the community has such attentive members smoking out less-than-honest persons. Cheating is never worth it.
I have been playing the game for 3 years and spent around 200 hours of playtime (not counting being in the menu or having the game in the background, just gameplay) and I am still rank 400k. You can get good at the game without being cut out for clicking circles, but some people just don't have the genetics to play this game like me haha.
I play another rhythm game, sort of like guitar hero but a little different. I remember when I first started the game I was AWFUL, and thought "how the hell do people even play this?!" as it was so fast and my brain couldn't keep up. I decided to keep playing and now the fastest parts feel slow. I totally get how this would apply with Osu but like... Top level play is INSANE in this game
What I find interesting about the visual design is that the new client, osu!(lazer) is also an open-source project, meaning it's probably the only open-source game that's actually being played.
"I'm just not a hands on kind of guy" >Plays guitar >Tries every game he covers to learn how it works >Plays piano >Video edits Karl selling himself MAD short.
It is to me but that is why I watch these videos. It's interesting to me how far some people will go to get the number 1 spot through illegitimate means. These people have to be smart enough to know that their footage is going to face heavy scrutiny whether or not the footage is legit. Yet they still do it 😂
@@secondghost incredibly accurate response. definitely enjoy the "ingenuity" of some of these cheaters trying to get away with it and getting called out
@@wizardsmix7961 Yeah osu replay hacks can be pretty crazy, dont see why you would bother tho, the game is all about individual skill your only cheating yourself if you do, like cheating at solitaire, kind of sad.
This kind of reminds me of the whole SpaceUK situation with Geometry Dash, where he was a genuinely skilled and talented player, almost beating one of the hardest levels of the time as his 3rd(?) level of that difficulty category but unknowingly turning on cheats right at the end. He was such a good player at the time and the run was so accurate that he wasn’t under any suspicion, and from there it basically spiraled, with him hacking every level after that, just to see how long he could go without being caught
Please rewatch Karl's video again. The level was indeed extremely hard, but it was one of the easiest of that difficulty category (I believe it was somewhere around number 80 on the leaderboard. Not an easy achievement by any means, but pretty far from the highest level of play). Also it wasn't accidental. He got 96% and lost, so out of frustration he used a TAS to finish. From then on absolutely every single achievement of his was cheated. Including stealing a few first clears of extremely hard levels.
@@bluestorm749 First of all, it was on The Golden, which I’m pretty sure at the time was well within the top 10. Second, towards the end he accidentally hit a keybind that turned on noclip, and he himself along with the rest of the community believed that it was a legitimate completion because of how close SpaceUK was to actually dying, which would have happened twice had he not turned on noclip.
Out of curiosity I tried those tapping techniques myself that you showed. My arm got tired in seconds lol these people are crazy. Extremely skilled, but crazy lmao. Since the underlying skill is obviously there I wonder if this guy could ever come back and earn trust back? I'm not sure.
osu players always abbreviate everything for easier communication, so we do indeed call it "pp". nobody ever says "performance points", but this isn't the only example, as we also call the modifications by their abbreviations for example. "doubletime" turns into "dt", "hard rock" into "hr", "hidden" into "hd" and so on. we even abbreviate the standard gameplay of not using anything down to "nm" for "no modifications" so this isn't even a karl thing, but rather an osu thing. osu players say the funny word daily.
This is like the best researched information about a topic in osu! I've ever seen. Of course me and other osu!players understand most of this easier than non-osu!players. But still this was explained so well and on point.
@@CVireq_ I kind of see why he said it. As an Osu player for over 6 years now, you barely follow the beat of the song and just look at the circle and click it by muscle memory, especially stream maps. Osu!Standard is more of an aim game rather than a Rhythm game itself.
It kind of is, you cant exactly start pushing your keys upward on a keyboard to decrease the amount of time it takes to start pressing down again but people do wiggle their hand to increase the speed that their fingers are moving.
@@zZSleepytimeZz yes u can.... keyboards exist now with keycaps that can trigger on PRESS and or RELEASE same technology used in the ps2 controller. yes thats painfull. a PS2 controller had this tech and yet sony ditched it.
@@miciso666 what you just said is literally what this video is about, pressing a button being 2 actions instead of 1 is considered cheating. Relating having a secondary action for a key when released to drumming is like imagining when a drummer lifts his stick he hits another drum that was above, its nowhere near the same thing i or the original comment described.
Wootility isn't bannned, anyone using a wooting keyboard uses it but certain settings like dks are against the rules. So him having it on his desktop was fine.
@sirmeowsalot9314 hate that song... mostly because of the controversy surrounding the live performance at ESC 2011 with additional rehearsals and all that stuff...
No one cares about number two in any solo sport, because any achievement can and will be replicated and surpassed When you spend all your mental capacity for 5 years and longer, spend over $2k for a gaming setup that does not even include a PC itself... To be short - there's all your ego on the line
The tensing for jitter presses in games was something I did often as a teenager. Probably why my hand is fucked these days. As a 31 year old I can still do it if I accept that my wrist will sting for the rest of the day. I'm amazed these guys can do that day after day, but they probably take better care to avoid issues.
Difference between a 95 and a 100 % play in osu can be like doubling the performance points making jitter tapping actually mostly useless in osu as it isnt controlled, people only use it to play things outside of their skill range. Most people will be fine in osu if they stop playing the moment it hurts(alotta people still cant manage that)
