Re: Songs of the Week 07/01/2022

Tourney songs are pretty great from what I'm able to play. Definitely need to de-rust, but I'm excited for what the rest of the tournament has to bring.

Song choices so far have been amazing! Looking forward to the rest of them.

Re: Songs of the Week 07/01/2022

I was wondering when this post was going to show up :P

Pretty solid charts for round 1, a lot of them were enjoyable. The D4 song brings me some mario and tmnt nostalgia with the sample sounds it has in it haha, as well as the D6 song bringing that undertale vibe lol. I never knew t+pazolite had a song featuring a vtuber so that was interesting to listen to. I was really worried about my division getting The Lady Is A Trump only because I saw really awkward stream patterns in there that I struggle with on top of crazy swing and bursts in it that I'm also bad at so I was concerned for my score, but the chart and song itself are really good/fun.

Also thank you Wiosna for making another DJ Sharpnel jumpstream stamina chart for me to blackflag and get equiv on

D2 - Space Doggity – I can’t say I’m a fan of this file. It leans on the song’s comedy to carry it, but the length is a pretty big detriment to it. Good execution outside of the length though.

D3 - Decadence – greatesthitofdisturbed.mp4. Should be a pretty popular pick among D3 folks, classic Storn file.

D4 - A Tiny Spaceship’s Final Mission – Pretty solid. I’m glad the FantomenK permission is getting used. Psychotik tends to send in some pretty polished stuff and this is no exception.

D5 – Walking the Streets of a Former Hell – Twister [Standard] is apt, it is similarly relentless and similarly well made. Of course it’s a cornman file.

D6 – Now’s Your Chance To Be a [[BIG SHOT]] gomotion rmx – Folks have been calling this a jack file. While they are a pretty major part, I definitely struggle with everything that isn’t a jack here. It results in this being a very good choice for the tournament, as it tests a pretty wide variety of skillsets.

D7 – The Lady Is a Trump – I judged this – I knew the 32nds would get a good reaction from the preview stream – 307 stream is bound to get a reaction. The 32nds serve as a really good distraction from the real difficulty of this file, which is basically just the entire second half. I figured this would get used in the OT after my first playtest, it’s a really solid file and tests a pretty good variety of skill sets. jh has been on a roll lately, lots of banger files.

D8 – Excuse my Rudeness – I judged this – Chordjacks are becoming more popular in FFR and DZ has been at the forefront of high difficulty chordjack files lately. This is a pretty dang solid file through and through. D8 is definitely just treating this as an appetizer.

Extra - SHINE!! – It looks pretty good but I know I don’t have the stamina to play it on any rate over ~0.7x.

Everyone, don't tell him what the lyrics actually mean. 🤫

cool opening lineup, felt d4 and d8 were a lil on the easy side but fun nonetheless. standout charts for me are d4 and d7 this round i think. d4 is just a vibe, and d7's a really fun and varied chart. do wish the streams were less rolly though...
