Pulse VII no loved is for unrankable maps but are still cool

[@ragnarokvii]

bolt-strikes i was just kidding. Although there are some really dumb maps that get into loved

[@awoken917]

an interview with fieryrage would be really interesting, i would like to see how being both a top player and mapper effects how he plays and makes maps

[@replikaxe1772]

I live for Kirby Mix's so much so glad to see this video!

[@Nivalyx]

since pishi has featured IcePagoda's Timebomb set twice already (in this video and in Gens' interview video) could this be a hint that pishi is going to do an interview of the super legendary mapper IcePagoda himself soon? :eyes:

[@geramahar]

IcePagoda is too underrated XD

[@colekwegner]

Wow! That video was really high quality and interesting. I've been playing osu! for about a year now and it's crazy how much harder it must be to get into the game nowadays since everyone seems to be so good. I'm at rank 50K now so I guess I wouldn't be considered an osu! noob but I still have a long way to go. Also I need to find out where I can get one of those osu! jackets. They need to start selling them on the website, maybe they could come with osu! supporter for a couple months or something too.

[@Lunaii2]

I always wondered who was the creator of all this map i was tryharding and enjoying a lot, and why this style is unique and rare on osu

[@UmCaraNormalnumPlanetanormal]

Went to see him profile and got jumpscared by the u/410, crazy low number

[@NeutralReacts]

I've quit osu so many times only to come back because I want to play all the kirby maps I have, I can't uninstall this game as long as those exist.

[@M4TTYN]

wow, wish i found this video to kept my osu! playing in a kinda good spot 2012/2013 to hope a Kirby will come again but.... sadly would prob get flack for straying from the norm or something else dumb as hell. will DL his maps!

Wtf pishi you did that vid topic I suggested!! -idk you probably didn't see the pm though I hope you read it-

[@zwthh]

Its strange how your voice doesnt match your appearance but i love it haha

[@l1mi13]

I noticed a few old mappers (and some new) making old style maps and got them ranked as of late like Gens and Fartownik. Is it only a coincidence or are these evil actions somehow organized?

[@l1mi13]

​@Ashton McIvor Why delete all progress? To draw inspiration from old maps and then present them in a modern manner is fine but repeating the old mistakes, no. And I still dont think they have much thought behind the structure, notes placed in a line, symetric patterns and squares because mappers wassnt experienced enough to use alternatives and it was easier to make symmetry look good. Its always been the same in every new game, players always sucked in the beginning and then the quality get higher year after year. Same in osu! and same in mapping. Just look at how the players evolved in skill, same thing happened to the mappers. Old mapping style is inferior to the new one that said, you can still make a good old style map but its going to be harder. Im curious if Kirby could map something diffrent or if the "old" style is his only style but thats up to him to prove. At least mappers like Net0 can make old style maps at decent quality, I can still dislike them but I wont complain about it.

[@l1mi13]

@Lavender Tea Ofcourse not every map but some are.

[@shibized8594]

Can a old map get unranked if ranked bc it didn't go thru qualified

[@vapourwave]

Old mapping = new tech mapping
