onoken - vijore by kiddly

most other maps rated highly tend to be the common safe + designed with ideas well accepted by the community at the time i think

or well nornak isnt realmy right but within bounds of current acceptable msp design overton window if it was 2014-15 skyscraper wouldn’t be close to top

everything sentimentsl skyscraper does is considered normal now though

ngl the "maps that take more risks will be more controversial" take doesnt really hold up here knowing that sentimental skyscraper is #1 of all time lole

Can you believe it guys? CIRCLE IN THE MIDDLE only 6 minutes and 24 seconds away! Woohoo! I am so happy about this information. CIRCLE IN THE MIDDLE just 6 minutes and 24 seconds away. Oh wow. Can you believe it. CIRCLE IN THE MIDDLE, just in 6 minutes and 24 seconds. [3]

can you believe the last circle is in the middle

would be higher if the last circle wasn't in the center

i think kiddly has better
this map is really cool but isn't really interesting for me now beyond "nice structure"

personally i have never had the patience to sit through the whole thing because it just feels very boring to me but i can respect and see the merit in it

I still appreciate the map

honestly i think the same thing lumi but i get why maps like this end up at the top of the charts. maps that take more risks will be more controversial. it is what it is

i think this map is good

I'm sure you can already find a chunk of these people down in the comments

surely there's some decent group of people that are completely unimpressed by this map

why is this even rated so high it's just like good

ratings like stairway to heaven

Its mid

We get itttt oh my god girl

absolute cinema.

unpredicktable

its been 3 years since i first saw this i still cant unhear dick around

i'm at a date :3

06:05:195 dick around...

neurotoxin still just edges it out for me honestly

skibidi toilet rhythm

rhythm master

the fact he managed to put the last circle in the center is so awesome

still a fantastic map [2]

still a fantastic map

lost something

-Penta said 3,5/5 then voted 3

what the fuck is xilvers play man

overrated

vjiVORE

this map would have gotten a 3.5 just for the rhythm itself. Everything else in it just completes it into a masterpiece imo.

I think this map was good but I haven't played it in years

when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that's vijore

small circles allows patterns that forms an elaborate path, and this map takes your cursor into an adventure swinging and turning from object to object

masterpiece

wtf i didnt even notice its hp8

wait this is hp8 too and i didn't even feel the need to focus on that. incredible

finally, a map where cs5 felt like it actually added to the map's experience and not just an increase of difficulty. i don't see that often

3D visuals

osu hivemind when the song is really good:

how is this made 7.5 YEARS AGO OH MY GOD

omdb top 50 reviewing journey - #5

my take on this map can be condensed into one simple sentence: you could make a whole textbook on how to map out of this map and this map only.

i played b4 many created their accounts!!!1111
ok i cant play

https://twitter.com/vinxis1/status/1609438106335465473?s=46&t=HpwtfJQRMT2vYf9R0D7AeQ

I did for most of them esp (but not only) ones i couldnt remember

also im logging out when i leave osu itself within this week

Vinxis log out of omdb already

play them again when rating your opinion might have changed and it's a more fun experience ‼

ive played them all

i see yall with 800+ ratings yall are not playing the maps ‼

2.5 -> 4.5 now that i have actually played it

rhythm master

thought there was a tempo change in this and then i checked and there wasnt and i dont think ive felt that before

visuals

not that big of a fan I get kinda eepy playing this

xilverdagoat

also where is deetz with his vijore appreciation we need you sir

this map makes me cry (in a good way)

when compared to the other greats of the game kiddly was never quite an ideas guy, but what he lacks in ideas he more than makes up for with overwhelming visual beauty. vijore achieves aesthetic perfection not by beating you over the head with sheer object density, but by pure poetry of arrangement. kiddly carefully paces out onoken's otherworldly epic with the meticulous, almost mathematic elegance so characteristic of that particular chinese cs5 style. his cs5 aesthetic is the most beautiful (except for maybe kloyd's) and certainly one of the most recognizable of all time, and his arrangement idiosyncrasies are never as potent and concentrated as they are here.

omar shut your goofy ass up

Dada is CRINGE and Deca is (kind of) RIGHT

people soychamp this map so much and its by far one of the most mindboggling things to me because not only as a player but also as a mapper i snooze so much at this map

getsurei did everything this map does but better

still great map though

great execution of a long form map with the breaks and gameplay progression, good rhythm, nicely impactful 1/4 stuff, high quality throughout

hot take: i really don't understand why this map is anything super special, it's fine but it's not anything super stand-out imo

cs5 king

idk what to say this map is just one sexy beast

incredible beatmapping

this is one of those maps taht just knows how to rhythm while also keeping things extremely fresh and fun

a beatmap.
