        responded to this point already. i avoid files like this because they are almost always pretty dumb.

              Approaching this game with the mentality that "Pattern 'X' is impossible to hit the proper way" just puts a limit on things. I always thought the beginning 34 trill in death reveals couldn't actually be trilled and it made that pattern illogical and stupid, well I was wrong because I can do the trill now with perfect accuracy.

              Obviously we can't hit 1200bpm rolls as they are intended but I stopped calling files 'dumb' because of difficulty a long time ago.

                i know what you're saying, but it's not like i am going to avoid a file forever because i can't hit a pattern. in your death reveals example, i would probably just quit out and play some other fast stream file instead.

                that doesn't mean i would never play it again though. just not at that moment because it feels pointless if i have to hit it as a jumpjack to even think about comboing it.

                  That's about it, My right hand has considerably less stamina then my left.
                  I can endure marathon charts with left handed patterns with ease but when it comes to a chart with right handed patterns I struggle way more.

                  P.S. Does consistency and accuracy fall under the same category?

                    nah, consistency and accuracy are different

                      Well in that case I excel in accuracy at the expense of consistency and vise versa.

                        Strengths:
                        - I'm not good enough to have strengths.
                        - I can hit streams I guess, not fast though

                        Weaknesses:
                        - Reading (left scroll problem)
                        - Accuracy
                        - Splitting jumps, hitting hands/quads
                        - Jump stream
                        - Jacks
                        - Trill consistency
                        - Speed

                        Mainly my weakness is FFR. Strength is not getting too upset.

                        When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.
