Hakushi Hasegawa - Sabaku de by dsco

song, bg, hitsounds, storyboard all amazing
but the slider blankets are just not fun

dunno how to rate this because I really like this as a set more than any of the diffs individually

it's mid

midbaku de

it's easily the map ever

the effort

i love the busy left hand rhythms, i love how the bit after the break is only circles, i love the rude sliders at the end & i love the storyboard (wish i could keep it on without killing my fps lol) but i Just Can't get over how some of the polygonal patterns in the top diff feel 10x harder than everything else in the map in a way that feels like a mistake rather than something intentional

this map sucks more the more i look at it its just so lame for the song

there has not been a good hakushi hasegawa map yet its either criminally underrepresented or just completely unhinged mode (halgoh)

Mizunash Akari cap level 0x hes correct

unmappable artist honestly

way too repetitive tbh

this is a taiko map in disguise

so boring and rigid i almost kms

miss iphone 6

iphone

after all this time it now hits me

expert hits hard

the thing I like so much about dsco mapping is how he offloads a lot of pattern placement and visual positioning to simple symmetries and copy pasting. It makes the maps characteristically pristine while allowing more space to be occupied by fun concepts and rhythms.

and when he deviates from this style it adds an incredible contrast: for example the solo section in this map.

the definition of clean imo

normal diff drain time goes hard
