I think I actually under-rate Ba Do Bleep, if anything. That's bonkers, right? It's been my favourite map for over two decades now - but that right there is exactly the problem. I saw it when I was 15, and it was maybe the fourth or fifth map of any kind I'd ever truly paid attention to front-to-back, and the first that wasn't essentially forced upon me by my parents or general peer pressure at school. It was the first time I'd ever decided it might be worth actually trying out mapping for real, and the very first map I ever landed on just so happened to be the best one? Nah. It's far too convenient. I keep side-eyeing it uneasily when I see it sitting at the top of my favourite map list. Surely the rush of seeing it now can't be the same as it was when I was seeing it as a teenager. Surely at least one of the 3,500 maps I've heard since has surpassed it. Right?!
And yet I've been having this thought repeatedly for well over a decade now, and every time I come back to it I'm absolutely blown away. I think to myself that surely "normal." won't have that power when the shock of the multi-part emphasis structure has worn off. Surely "bo boo geep." won't look as profoundly spacious, distant, and yearning as it did back in those long distant days when it was my favourite map. Surely they won't still send those shivers flying up my spine. Surely they won't be so emotionally overwhelming. Surely it won't still feel so terrifying. Surely at some point the song will stop sounding so damn pretty and feeling so damn desolate. Surely "wafer" won't soar so high. And yet every time I go back and check, I find that all of those things are true and more. It has only grown in my estimation since; "The Spinner" has stopped feeling like one of the weak points here and screamed all the way up to becoming one of my favourite part in the map, and the surprising coldness of "Midwest Emo Edit" has really started to draw me in. It just somehow keeps getting better every time I hear it. So yes: it turns out that by total fluke, my first ever attempt to find a favourite map was the only one I ever needed, and as much as I've loved spending so long trying to find something better, and as much as I will probably continue to do so for as long as I'm alive, it's probably a fruitless endeavour. Ba Do Bleep (olc's Midwest Emo Edit), man. What a fucking map.
damn i never realized how good of a mapper Pharrell was
crazy how this was both the first hexgrid map (probably) and also the only one to do it correctly
preview point is the only good part [2]
actually just insanely well crafted
this is like if i looked at burnt rice while on 500mg of benadryl
forgot to rate this but yea p much sums up my thoughts, almost every pattern is memorable which isnt the case for basically any other map
honestly first hehe map in a while that ive really enjoyed
SODA (dahkjdas diff was also cool c:)
map is cool, song def reeks of 2008 emo energy but other than that it was fun to play
oh no
and why is this bg just panned higher than the other one
why are there two of them
anyway this song is so ass [2]
i think the only reason i gave this more than a 0 is because ive seen this so many times that it just seems funny at this point how bad it is
what is this
wait youre so right wtffff this is insane
really put the break in breakdown
pluses dont work man i gotta make do
ratio | u rated ryuuseigun a 5 | u probably play league dont u
those spiral sliders Fuck
nah u cant do that what did ktgster ever do to u
most flaccid map of all time
