In the meanwhile, play whatever you like (even autoconverts, in which case you'll need to turn the 7K mod on). Try to get the notes right, without bothering too much about accuracy. What you want at first is to be able to the songs, and when you do so, it means that you're more and more getting used to the keys.Mania is very hard at all stage of the game, so even though this is just the beginning and you find it a bit hard, don't give up. Practice is key. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n Last edited by PyaKura<\/a> 2013-12-17T05:40:48+00:00<\/time>, edited 1 time in total.\n <\/div>\n \n \n My o!m maps<\/a><\/center><\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n The Muffin Man<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 32 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed December 2012<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n The Muffin Man<\/a>\n\n \n 2013-12-17T05:35:02+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n PyaKura is completely right - coming from a mania newbie, getting used to the columns and learning to read fast-scrolling notes helped me immensely.

Though I would personally suggest the latter since I believe you'll improve faster, and in more fields, when working with a larger variety of patterns and maps rather than focusing on a couple patterns featured in a couple songs.If you keep playing songs that level for practice, slightly bellow to master the basics and slightly above to expose yourself to harder stuff, there's no doubt you'll acquire the skills you need to do the patterns you're having trouble with in time.

And it is a lot more fun.Practicing one specific pattern you're having trouble with, can really help you get better at that pattern a lot faster in my experience. But just be sure that you play more songs than you practice specific patterns because mania is still a rhythm game after all.Also this 'lvl' is just something mappers use to indicate how difficult they think their chart is. There are different standards though, but most will use the o2jam lvl standards (1-50, there are also levels beyond that but they are usually a bit on a weird scale imo. A lvl50 song can be just as hard as a lvl90 etc)<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Raging Bull<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 2,809 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed June 2010<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Raging Bull<\/a>\n\n \n 2013-12-24T01:49:40+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n well to me, it seems like theres a huge jump in difficulty for me with a diff that is very straightforward and then a difficulty that is completely unbeatable to me.
