Away from FFR experince?

Zythus · 01-1-2008, 09:44 PM

Just my little chain of thought, but these days I have homework during the holidays and haven't touched FFR in 3 days. Guess what, I come back and I can't even combo CIA rave. DOes anyone else feel that you just grow crappier if you dont play, even for a day or two?

no, I get better when I don't play XD
I didn't play for two months and when I came back, I could play challenging songs "well" (I was playing VD songs "badly" before)

Not necessarily... I mean, it depends. If you combed CIA rave on a lucky run, it shouldn't be a surprise if you can't do it anymore after a few days break. I mean, yeah if you don't practice/play for awhile, I'm sure you will be "rusty", but I would think that requires a lot more of a break, say a few months.

I usually get better after breaks.

1 or 2 day break I get better. 1 month I am crappy for a day and then regain skill at a incredible rate.

I think that when you take long periods of breaks(a day or two), then your wrists get to have a little time off, and they're less tense than they usually are.

Just what I think.

True. I once took about a 2 week break. stated playing and got about 2 VC FC's although I did drink a Vault it was the best I've did.

I find anywhere from a week to two weeks will jump my skill.

I guess there an element of truth in those, I find i get better PAs after I come back. and its not a lucky run that I FC CIA, I can full combo Lunar Saturation and Now I can't combo CIA...

meaning what: MORE PRATICE

I often don't touch FFR for months at a time and notice huge skill decreases. But after about 2 weeks of solid playing it all comes back. 3 days off isn't enough to make a noticeable difference for me though.

If I take a break, Im worse then when I last played, but I regain my skill fairly quickly and then I end up better then before.

I took a 4-day break on a ski trip, and I came back to suck the first 10 runs through... But afterwards, I started to get back to normal... Although it may be because I'm not playing as much as I used to... Need to get back in the habit of that.
