I just started seriously practicing reverse today because I was sick of failing Extra Stages on DDR Machines. It felt really wierd at first ... almost like if I had forgotten everything and started from scratch. Another wierd thing, In SM, the freeze arrows show the end first and ... well anyone taht's a downscroller knows what I'm saying. I couldn't even do 16th streams forget jump streams. I could hardly AAA anything, and when I tried to focus on the targets instead of the arrows, I would fall behind the music and hit greats. I tried it on FFR and I noticed a few advantages over upscrolling with it like you can see your timing judged with less screen cut. CIA Rave is actually pretty easy on reverse to me but everything else seemed a little hard. Next, I kinda jumped ahead of myself and beat some people in MP with downscrolling. There's just one thing I was wondering, people like Bahamut, Flunk and Exagon seem like they've been downscrolling forever and I was just thinking like how long did they practice to adjust to downscrolling and why did they do it? All of this stuff, hopefully either Baha or Exagon will se this thread and help me out.

Re: Reverse Scrolling
Wow.
You can go straight from scrolling up to scrolling down and still be able to do decent on CIA Rave in such a short amount of time? That deserves some applause from me ... when I switched from rising arrows to falling arrows, I had to start over again at Easy-Standard songs (then again, I was barely doing Standard-Difficult songs then). -

Re: Reverse Scrolling
I'd get like 60 misses on CIA, but then I played like my 2nd ever game of reverse on it, and got like 15 or so, without mashing. I couldn't even read it without reverse. I didn't have to learn how to read stuff all over again, I suddenly knew how to read everything.

Re: Reverse Scrolling
Um, I pretty much never started playing with up.... it's ALWAYS been reverse for me. I improved at a steady rate the same at what an upscroller would only with reverse.
I'm decent with upscroll though. There was a period where I was practicing it quite a bit so I could play MP. I can actually probably AAA cia rave on upscroll if I tried enough.Comment
