Pure Sauce Overdosage
~~

Last time this was submitted, I said that a file like this could work with a much lighter touch. I still think this is true, but that this version you've submitted here is absolutely not "much lighter". You've reduced some of the specific anchors mentioned, but it's actually more aggressive in some ways, and the patterns are clearly not designed with any sort of understanding of how things actually scale at 300 bpm.

First off, the jump layering makes no sense:
- 15.143-15.543: There isn't a single sound on a 32nd here that could possibly make sense as a jump. The percussion on the beat at 15.243, perhaps... but that isn't a jump.
- 15.843, 16.443: The jump triplets here are mystifying as well.
- Percussion picks up at 18.043 and yet layering drops down.

Patterning is still absurd despite the reduction in explicit anchoring:
- 15.693-16.743: The left-hand control needed for this at 300 bpm is legitimately 110+ in difficulty.
- 16.993-17.893: Same on right hand.
- 19.943-20.393: This is an anchor of the caliber you were warned about before.

And so on. I'll cut the review off here. Reduce layering, use jumps that actually correspond to the music, get people to playtest your charts to make sure the patterning isn't literally insane, etc etc. I will reject this without review if it is submitted again in a similar state to this. [3/10]

- Offset's okay.

From a judgment's perspective, having to review this file back-to-back twice a piece on this and the previous submission, it seemed to me that this didn't go any critical changes and it was left out the same as it was.

There are still numerous issues that this chart has, namely the jump usage in the jumpstream (32nd jumps!) which doesn't make musically much sense and faithful to the song, and the layering changes without any musical cues are just extremely jarring.

Even when you address them, you have to think about how they would play in absolute respect to the music - remember, 300bpm equivalent patterns should be treated with extreme care and effort, and any slight mistakes that happen to ramp up in the layering will fluctuate the difficulty and makes spikes easier to notice. I would recommend getting more playtests as what Pizza has said in the review has been spot on (not only on this submission, but also the previous one).

As it stands, I will penalize this file with a lower rating even though this is technically "better" than the previous one, but the lack of restraint and effort to make it a palatable experience is not there. [4.5/10]

Judge Score: 4.50 - Rejected
