Mania player. I've only been playing for about a little less than half a year.Right now, According to this scale, I am roughly around Novice 7-8.I would like to give some on level Novice 7-10.1. First off, I would like to say that the skill gap level between Novice 7 songs and on each level requires that you somehow find another\/quicker\/faster\/efficient way of reading in order to advance. Also some songs in each level are significantly easier or harder than the others.I would also like to note that these are totally biased towards how I see them. But I do believe there is some objectivity in what I'm about to say.2. In Novice 8, Flip Flap [Hard] would be an easy Novice 8. I find it just as easy as Sweet Rain or Smooch. However, I do think Far East Nightbird is much more difficult, and significantly a higher level play than any of these songs.3. Mermaid Girl I can with a B, which is what I get on Flip Flap, Sweet Rain, or smooch. I do see the change in difficulty, as it does have scroll speed changes as well as forces the player to read both sides, instead of the consistent left hand and right hand doing some melody or smth.However, in Novice 9, Shinseitaju is extremely hard for me. The first 30 seconds is obviously very easy, but afterwards, I have no idea what I'm reading, or in other words, I just can't read that fast.4. Novice 10 I just can't play any of them through (which is expected), So i have no comment on that tl'dr - Flip Flap [hard] suggested for Novice 7 - Mermaid Girl lv 16 suggested for Novice 8 Other suggestions - Conflict [NM] placed as Novice 8 or 9. (definitely harder than something like Workaholic.)<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Thing O Doom<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 13 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed April 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Thing O Doom<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-04-24T17:09:47+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n How can I get better at LNs?

Also I keep my read speed super low, like usually 6 for high bpm maps, and 8 for slower, is this a problem?<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Mike Ace<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 287 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed August 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Mike Ace<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-04-25T08:15:04+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n Hahaha Thx <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Envisionise<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 40 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed June 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Envisionise<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-04-27T06:19:42+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n Finished Expert 8's Nou Shou + Heart of Witch, but I still can't do xepher or music revolver which are expert 6 and 7 :c<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n yay<\/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 2014-04-28T20:29:20+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n Thing O Doom wrote:<\/h4>How can I get better at LNs? Because quite frankly I suck at them.<\/blockquote>Think I'm about your level, maybe a bit better at LNs, so here's what I think:I find LNs to be the hardest skill for me too, because there's simply more on the screen and you have to be thinking about when to take your fingers off as well.Play some LN-y maps: ones which use LNs simply, in beat with chords. REDALiCE - Acceleration<\/a> comes to mind.Thing O Doom wrote:<\/h4>I just dunno how to get a feel for holds I suppose. Also I keep my read speed super low, like usually 6 for high bpm maps, and 8 for slower, is this a problem?<\/blockquote>That seems incredibly slow! I play around 13 on my 21\" 1920x1080 monitor, arms breadth away if any of that changes things. Slow read speed for LNs is killer, because it's harder to see where to let go. For reference, I play Acceleration at 14 (little faster than I normally play, but I do well).tl;dr play more of what you suck at. LNs come with experience, in my (short) experience.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Nekro_old_1<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 24 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed August 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Nekro_old_1<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-04-28T20:59:03+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n Scrolling speeds are weird as heck. I've seen some players who play at a fairly low speed (I'm looking at you Charles445) that does pretty well.I think it's really whatever the player's comfortable with. I like mine somewhat fast (12x at 200bpm, 14x at 180bpm, etc)<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Entozer<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 297 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed February 2010<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Topic Starter\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Entozer<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-04-30T11:52:12+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n @Remi94You could try going for RD sometimes if you want. As for hitting walls, that rest is also part of training. You could try to take a break (3-5 days maybe?) You'll be surprised how different playing would feel after the break.Stairs would be very hard if you always play in random (since if technically the chart is full of stairs, then random would, well, randomize it). I'm not sure how I trained on stairs, but I playing relatively easy songs that are mainly stair-oriented without RD.A lot of info could be found in Drace's thread. You could refer to it. There are quite a number of questions answered there.@AkihikoThat's alright, and thanks ^^(That is pretty neat!)@firefwingI'll try to check them out when I have the motivation... thanks for the !Thing O Doom wrote:<\/h4>How can I get better at LNs?

Also I keep my read speed super low, like usually 6 for high bpm maps, and 8 for slower, is this a problem?<\/blockquote>I would go with what Muffin Man said. Play some LN-y maps that are simple. It doesn't matter how dense it is (stairs, double stairs, triple), as long as it is relatively simple to play and understand, go for it.If you want info for Full LN maps (throughout the song you hold LNs), then you'd have to start from 0 again because it's a different world.@Scrolling speedFor this one... it shouldn't matter at all on what speed you play. If you are used to speed 6, then 6 is normal to you and 8 is fast. If you are used to speed 10, then 10 is normal to you and 12 is fast. It's all relative anyway.The only time you would have to worry about scroll speed is when playing retarded maps (In my experience, found mostly in the o2-world). But even then, most of the time you'd only have to worry about your relative slow-scroll reading. With that said, I'm pretty good in slow and normal scroll speed because of those retarded maps.<\/span><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n -KousakaHonoka-<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 42 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed August 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n -KousakaHonoka-<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-05-08T08:01:36+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n @Entozer:Nice list at all. Love it @Nekro:You can try to find the most comfortable speed for yourself by add or subtract the speed.And also, you can create your own minimum and maximum speed.For example, my current speed when playing a map are x13 for 200 BPM and x15 for 180 BPM. Then, I make my speed range between 2.6K - 2.7K.But when play Lily - Scarlet Rose (320 BPM), I play with 2 option (with x8 and x9). Realize that x9 is too fast and can't to be played, I change the speed to x8 and also change the speed range into 2.5K - 2.7K.How about the 100 BPM? You can pick one of the 2 speed option; either x25 or x26 as long as the speed is in your speed range and you can play comfortably.Once you get your own speed range, you can apply it into entire Beatmaps you want to play.So you can't get dizzy easily and enjoy the game <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Nekro_old_1<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 24 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed August 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Nekro_old_1<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-05-08T16:24:07+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n ShinHikari wrote:<\/h4>@Nekro:You can try to find the most comfortable speed for yourself by add or subtract the speed.And also, you can create your own minimum and maximum speed.For example, my current speed when playing a map are x13 for 200 BPM and x15 for 180 BPM.
