Default The Arch way!

Index fingers = Godly :O

Lately been pissed off about my performance on sm/ffr so I gave Arch's style a try and honestly I think it rules. 2 index fingers = easy like pie/cheese cake


I'll post some scores later.

I thought so too. I don't know if it's cool or hip and what not.

Arch's index way is great is all. I only used to play 1 handed on every song,no matter what.

Its not really 'archs way'

lots of people play that way.

And yea, its very effective. Just watch what happens when you do a song with lots of turns though :P

rolls are like the easiest pattern for indexes.
Turns and (especially) spins are the hard part. Turns and spins are easy patterns for 1 hand.

rolls can be kinda hard if they're really fast. Anything like 46284628 or 42484248 is easier tho :P or like 428628428628428628 I <3 that pattern.

But yea, turns are spins are pretty hard if they're really fast or mixed into other fast patterns.

I still have no idea how you could be THAT fast with 2 fingers... I can't even do simple patterns like 16th rolls at 200bpm with indexes.... =\

*flaunts A on Max300 2.0x music speed*

Anyways, the reason it's called the "Arch method" is the same way JSB's playing style is called "JSB style". I play like JSB and have been for a long time, but no one really noticed it untill there was a video of JSB clearly playing with the way he plays. Sort of like how no one noticed the way I play on keyboard untill I got really good.

people only call it that because for a long time you were the only index player we knew of (since volkov never said for a while which playing style he used.... )

*feeling like a newbie* JSB style?

JSB style is barely moving your feet at all when you play ddr, applying very little force and using your heels/tips of your toes to hit the arrows. (refer to the video of him vs reflexx on legend of max)

Spazzbite, and eggman use their index fingers aswell. So do I...well, 50% of the time. Aperson, nima and jello use 4...but yea, alot of people still use their indexs. Its a really effective method on most songs.
