    Re: Ghostjumping strategy

    It's actually a really easy concept -- I just went into perhaps too much detail.

    Basically, say you have this:

    .Va

    <b
    <c

    A leading arrow (a) followed by a two-framer set (b c). If a and b are close enough, you can hit a and b at the same time instead of hitting a then b then c. You instead treat it like this:

    ab
    <V

    <c

    Honestly, it isn't that hard. It just helps a lot for songs like OMW or Nova Pulser or Molto, etc. basically anything that's framerheavy.

      this is a good idea, but to be honest...

      Not many people watch the charts so carefully as to memorize where the exact frame required to PA the framers occur...

      And even less people are able to comprehend and achieve this "Ghostjumping"...
      Again, good job anyways...
      one hand, no mercy...

        It's not so much memorizing which exact frame to PA -- it's just developing a general hitting strategy for certain sections of certain songs. This strategy is really only applicable to a few select songs where people have hard really hard times PA'ing/comboing the song. This is an easy way to do it. If you can understand and learn this approach you'll be able to FC OMW 10x easier.

        The number of songs this concept applies to is small -- but it will give you a pretty big advantage in rank.

          For Nova, you should hit the jump on the last perfect frame of the leading arrow, right?

            Thats why Rubix is the best. He knows the game in depth while others play he stratigizes (SP). haha, but nah. I read it and i still couldnt understand it but it sounds like it would work

              Correct, dore. For Nova it's nice because instead of the standard speed-up-then-slow-down-again approach that most people use when attempting to roll out Perfects but getting Goods at the ends (HORRIFYING and so erratic), you have a very easy and consistent approach.

              Also, since you're hitting late Perfect, you're technically playing as if there were no jack syndrome with the exception of hitting a ghost arrow

                  I get it now! Okay, thanks, I'll keep this strategy in mind when I want an FC on some stupid jack level.

                        k thanks

                        I tried it but I have a mental block about hitting arrows in a way that I don't see them, so I hesitated, thinking too much about what I needed to hit instead of actually hitting them. I'd play without sound but I miss pretty much every 4-framer without sound.

                            Well I mean the strategy is kinda hard to do on the fly. It pretty much has to be a memorized thing. You have to kinda just "force" yourself to hit things in a way that's a little weird. I watched a playback of yours and you did it correctly in a few spots -- just have to get used to doing that consistently.

                                we need an ffr training mode so we can slow down song sections and stuff and practice this lol

                                since i wont feel like playing a minute into nova pulser over and over again only to find that its too fast for me to think about it
