    How come when you are playing at 1.25x or 1.5x of speed , you play better?

    i used 1.25x and I just FC'd July, if I were to play at 1.00x, I can't even manage to get 200 combos!

    How can you play faster and be better??? there's gotta be a cache!!!!

    I suppose it's because any speed faster than 1.0X spreads the notes out for you, so you can see rhythms more clearly.

    And you have to react faster...so you'll hit them more accurately.

      The faster you play the better you get.
      I play on 2.5

        That's not true at all. Some people have naturally faster reaction times than others. Just because you can read 2.5 doesn't mean you are any better than someone who plays 1.5 or 1.75

            the notes are spread out further with a higher speedmod so players can see the notes better.

              The main thing is that there are less notes on the screen so your brain is processing less information at a time which makes it easier to focus on the important arrows.

                If I had the time to play as much as you do I would be better than you. That is if I wasn't on a wireless keyboard...

                  Yes, but if I recall correctly, Laggy plays on 2.0 speed, and I know he's better than you.

                    Well, imagine if there was a 0.25x mod and you could play like that. All the arrows would be so smushed together it'd look like a wall of colour, you'd have no idea when everything is coming. Remember that judgments are based on the time, not the space, that you hit them at; the slower things are, the narrower the 'space' window you can hit perfects in is so the harder it is to read and hit things by sight. The more you space it out the more leniency you're getting, effectively

                      I can't read well on anything higher than 1.75. Unless it's like 120- BPM then it's a faster mod.

                          No.

                          "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                          "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                          "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                          "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.

                            not really

                            changing the speedmod does not change the chart, at all. you'll still have to hit the same number of notes in the same amount of patterns. it just changes how the chart is presented to you
