One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

Re: One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

you dont seem to realize how good those scores are or how hard those files are. his scores on those files are above what more than half the spread players are capable of

That's exactly what I'm saying! They're very good scores, better than I can do.

But if you look at the top spread players versus the top one handed players, there's no comparison, spread completely blows one handed out of the water and you can't argue with that.

I'm sorry I just truly don't see the point in playing one handed when it clearly hinders your ability to play well. Spread is definitely a better option than playing with one hand.

Thanks, bud. That is my point, I don't think that if people want to get good at this game they should begin playing with one hand.

Why not? Just let them play with one hand. Who are you to tell them that they shouldn't play one hand to get good?

@ w_c vids: That's insanely good for being 1 handed, but that isn't what Matrixdude was saying..

Conclusion: Don't play one handed. It's NEVER going to get you insanely good scores and is frankly a waste of time if you're trying to improve your playing ability.

There's been way better Electro Rush scores, way better Disregard scores, way better MSWGO scores with spread, so clearly 1 hand is a disadvantage.

Yeah while I wouldn't be able to come close to Bynary's scores one-handed, spread gives you a lot more flexibility on patterns. It also allows you to do patterns much faster (I've been able to hit good chunks of 360+ bpm 16th streams with decent patterns for example - one hand cannot come remotely close to doing this properly).

It really depends on what you want to do, though. If you want to play one-handed, nobody is stopping you from doing so. In fact, it's like me doing really fast rates while most of the community does MAish-type files and my scores not being noticed as much as the others posted since only a few players are able to see how good some of them really are (just like how I can't really appreciate MA scores as much as speed scores since my MA isn't that great so basically I'm forced to say any MA score is good haha).

If playing one handed made me a god I wouldn't have switched. I am slightly curious if I would have been better one handed if I had stuck with it and learned to read better speed mods and such, though.

It does limit you a lot, and it also makes the keyboard you use matter greatly (unless you're using four fingers, the positions and relations of the keys, especially up/down, can make or break you). It just puts in way too many variables to consistently produce good scores.

Re: One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

So basically this same old argument.

The best one handed scores won't compare to the best spread scores.
An omfgamazingasm one handed score is just as impressive as an omfgamazingasm spread score.

So yea. Matrixdude and WC pretty much ended most of your arguments like 23234 posts ago.

Re: One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

I played one-handed for a year 1/2 or something like that and didn't play for a year after that. played a bit again

then ffr went down, started playing months ago again.

I always said to myself i would never switch but it was brutal on my one hand and I wanted a change. I am very comfortable with spread and i don't get pain in either hand.

one handed for me is too brutal if I play enough

Re: One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

Well, I was a previous one hander for 4 years..
Helped me out in some things I wouldn't have gotten otherwise.
Majority of One Handed players tend to switch to Spread after they hit their peak.
I did as a one handed three finger player that played for 4-5years. I accomplished things that made me feel better. It may not be awesome to others but its more of a moral Victory. I, Redorigami, and Bynary Fission all played well as one handers and two of us ended up switching to Spread. Bynary is just gawd so he'll probably never switch. Anyways, to me it wasn't godly compared to spread just a lot more fun =]]

Re: One Handers Are Gods in the FFR World?

You know... I probably would have started a thread like this a few years ago.

wait...


I dunno where anyone gets the idea that we're gods. We're generally terrible in comparison to even a mediocre spread player, and like stated earlier it takes a long time to get nowhere playing one handed.

I'm in with ghost- saying that it's mostly for the fun. I tried switching to spread over the summer last year and ended up switching back because songs started to get boring. One handing has a rhythmic pattern to it, that changes through every song. (The way you tap your fingers varies greatly, vs spread where you just chomp each finger down as a note goes by.)


Meh.
