(T) Technique - sim author's skills in pattern manipulation
(S) Sync - offset, BPM shifts, no misrhythms (obvious errors)
(I) Interpretation/Expression - creativity and imagination in translating the music, evoking meaningfulness in the file
(E) Engagement - fun, replayable and shows no signs of dragging the player along
(F) Flow - matching scales/chord progression, proper structure to the file, good transitions
(A) Additional deductions

Hard: 2/3/3/2/3/(0) [13/15]

Overall the chart is solid, nice flow, good transitions, nice progression. The only thing for me is it drags a bit. A lot of the same or similar patterns are used, which I can understand with the song, but it makes it feel just really repetitive and draggy. I'd recommend a cut, but then again the song really isn't that long. Maybe some more pattern variation to help with that draggy feel. Otherwise I don't notice any glaring mistakes and again everything else seems good. Oh and the speedups were a nice touch.

Medium: 2/3/3/2/3/(0) [13/15]

Man this is a little tough for a med chart, but overall is alright. Like with the hard chart the patterns flow pretty nicely, good transitions, good progression. The only thing I noticed that I'm unsure of, it seems that most of your cymbal crashes are jumps but at seconds 13.373, 19.020, 45.844, 75.490, and 86.079 there are cymbal crashes with no jumps. Maybe I'm misunderstanding your layering, but I wanted to mention them just in case. I think they would look better as jumps either way.


Easy: 3/3/3/3/2/(0) [14/15]

You did a nice job on this, a few tricky parts here or there, but nothing too over the top. I like how you switched things up to keep it a little more interesting.

Beginner: 3/3/3/3/2/(0) [14/15]

Fits within the 2tps rule. There are some high nps sections but being that you use repeating steps I'm not going to require that you change any of that.

Oh god finally haha
Thanks a lot for the review, I'll look to my chart (I haven't touched it since so I don't really remember anything except the fact that it is a bit overlayered C: )

EDIT :

Hard :
I understand the draggy feel but I haven't many choices since I wanted to stay close to the music.
I fixed lots of mistakes / inconsistencies and weird patterns. I should feel cleaner now. I tried to add stuff here and there to add some variations and changed some rythms too, but no major changes at the moment.
Will see what I can do if I get the inspiration lol.

Medium :
I removed the doubles for crash cymbal, it wasn't for any layering purpose, I just messed them up :> and it may be a bit too tough during the 16th runs. I prefer removing them than putting double for every crash cybal since there is almsot no layering in this chart.

Easy : No changes at the moment

Beginner : Changed some tricky parts and removed some doubles, modified some patterns... Should be a bit easier now.

review tiem xd

hard: maybe get a step for the second part when he/she says bass cannon rly loud, there is one on can but not non lol
(this is totally probably personal but there is a sound starting at 12.314 that could have steps on it)
