This might be the easiest round for D5 and D6 yet, but for the rest, you guys have some fun tricky songs. Also, it's the first round where I love ALL the songs.

D1 song is really cool for it's difficulty, I never figured out what the white notes go to but the syncopation is very cool and keeps you on your toes, because it never went to the beat I thought it would, very cool file.

D2 file by JX is a lot of fun and felt quite fast, very tricky for an 8. There were some icky parts in there though I can't remember where but I'm sure it will give the D2 players quite some trouble, but I really like the file

D3, can't go wrong with SSH. Song is good file is really fun, but mainly because I'm a triplet ***. The 24th streams though caught me off guard and though sightread, will be playing again. Seems quite challenging compared to the previous song.

D4. You guys keep getting shafted this whole tourney. 2nd hardest song this round by far. Songs way trickier that 0. Those roll walls caught me off guard and the inverse at the end was tricky. Lots of rolls and plenty of mini jacks, if Velocity was hard this file will be REALLY tough on you guys. Had to play it quite a few times to AAA. Sabrepulse is always good and the song is sick.

D5. This file is NOT an FMO. No subjective manias here, it's just not. It's barely harder than Versatile and definitely not as hard as Ambient Angels. It's a little faster but the streams are much less abusive and has plenty of breaks. The stream patterns are clean and there are less mini jacks than in Finder. The 64ths can all be cleanly jumped as well. It's a fun file, reminds me of a faster Piano X Forte, but not as fun. Songs nice too.

D6: Really pissed I'm out this round, mainly because this song is right up my alley. I don't doubt I could have a AAA within the week. All my goods are pulled at those jump gluts, which are a nightmare, but I don't think it's anywhere near as bad as Spoon. Either way, it's Flashbulb, I love drum and bass, and this is no exception. The files really fun, typical drum and bass file, but hey, I love it so not complaining, the jump gluts are mean and the second one with all the jacks is kinda stupid though. If I figured that out or iso it I'm sure I'd have a AAA. Oh well, better try next year.


Favorite round by far! Good luck everyone still in the tourney, and sorry D4, you guys are just unlucky this year.

Moved this to the proper thread.

D5's song may not be FMO in your opinion but, I got way into the 30s on 0 where as Ambient Angels when I played offline was able to sdg. (Have yet to actually play it online since I've had limited play time lately) So in my opinion, 0 is harder than Ambient Angels. AA has a dense jumpstream section where as 0 is more consistent, has pretty dense jumpstream, has tricky grace notes all over, minijacks and that frigging weird running man thing. I'm sure there will be people who say it's not and some that say it is this time around. I think it's going to come down to higher level players saying it's not because it's fairly easy to them, but then people on the lower side will probably say it is.
