Re: Question for the sm elites!

Find a goal on songs that you want to reach.
ex. sdcb/g a song that you like, but on rates. Your fingers and arms will feel the burn.

1) Set goals that are barely within reach.
2) Reach that goal.
3) Repeat.

Point is to constantly challenge yourself. You have to mix "flow" (things you are comfortable playing and require next to no effort to achieve) with deliberate practice (stuff where you are constantly struggling and require more effort but end up stretching your skill).

Re: Question for the sm elites!

i'm no elite but i used to play a lot

how i would get better would be to continuously play a file with patterns i can't do, like yessss' almost there edit (24ths and 16ths ***** wut). then i'd put the file at .8x, try out the patterns a few times, then put it at 1x. i'd do that with nearly every file

it's really about figuring out what you suck at and what you're already good at, then improving what you suck at and becoming amazing at what you're good at

Thread directed at elites, bunch of noobs like leonid post (jk man)

Just play Otaku's Dream Anime Mix songs on rates and you'll get the feel for what you're doing. Once you're able to sup your 1.0 score on 1.2 or something, then you're improving. Just keep doing what everyone else says also.

I can't read overhead, all the note skins seem GIANT and look like they take up half the SM window for me.
