There will never be an osu! player like Adamqs

Highly regarded as one of the most unique and revolutionary players to have ever touched osu!, he still remains unknown to many in the general community. Pushing the limits of what was thought possible on maps that no one could even theorize about overmodding is just an average day for him. One day though, all of this faded away as his account was deleted. Who was Adamqs, and why was he so influential? Find out in this video.

[@WillyOsu]

It is worth mentioning that I don't go deep into Adam's personal interactions in the community and focus more on his scores. Apart from very bad mentality, Adam is truly and honestly addicted to osu!, and he has had quite a few bad interactions with other players which I glossed over like the Polish OWC team. I feel like this should be mentioned but I didn't know if it was fit for the video.

I vividly remember seeing this Circle People video the day he got that #1 score (Circle People was still super active at the time) as 1st HDDT FC, this play was made 5 years ago and no one else got this FC in the meanwhile, man was absolutely cracked and literally ahead of his time, massive respect.

2:00 This tradition of ironical naming still remains on, after all these years, with worst hr player as the best example. 2:54 For rest of the world it may be weird, but Polish players had strong believe that there's someone in osu!support who caused this unban personally. It may sound ridiculous, but not-so-long later kutafix avoided ban for a long time (considering his suspicious activity throughout the years), even including unbans after automatic Bancho bans, so it's strongly thought here. 3:44 I'm so happy you included this video here (from Rafis channel BTW). Adamqs there choked HDHR FC on last map stream. It was so ahead-of-its-time play - Azer did famous HDHR FC AFTER THAT (by 10 days). 6:09 AFAIC in his Wing My Way 3mod FC run he retried it (by BanchoBot) over 750 times to achieve it. In one session. -That's even more weird when you'll realize that... Adam didn't play AR11 at all. In fact, he didn't know how to do it on "normal" maps at all!- -He just repeated old-style sets to the point he could "mechanically" play it, even with so extreme specs.- Nvm, Rafis corrected it 6:38 Let's say that after his account wipe rrtyui got 6 #1 back and hvick225 - 16. Also Adamqs was considered one of the crucial players in a whole rrtyui #1 sniping event. 7:05 I really love a tribute to him done on 2019 Players Community Choice video (after his account deletion). During intro this exact play can be seen with quota "at least he got a cameo". 7:31 Sad you didn't point his special love to KIRBY MIX diffs, including Forces 3mod choke in last 15 seconds or Aurora 2 3mod run where he FCed whole spuare pattern on AR11 OD11! Scores so ridiculous, that in one of delta_p PP rework proposals it destroyed it being worth ~1200PP for FC... 8:28 Let's say no one knows if it's reversible at all. Osu's regulations about personal data and GDPR regulations are so unclear and weird it can be dangerous in future for game (e.g. flag changing drama).

Other than the addictive tendencies, I think I'm actually quite like Adamqs. I'm not as high up in rank, but I tend to go for just ludicrous playstyles and stuff. I think the trick is that I am not trying to play against other players. I am trying to play against the game itself. Playing in Blinds mode, AR or CS11 stuff, ridiculous 2B mastery (like SS+ plays on 2B maps), and other ludicrous stuff is what I tend to just do regularly. I don't have a reason not to.

[@nonsequiter5411]

People really, REALLY neglect to mention that even if you can play CS 9.1 Agony, the real difficulty is the fact that at HP10, you need at least 400 RPM spinner speed to even begin to clear it, and Agony has a death spinner right in the smack dab middle of the song. No idea if modern patches lessened this burden, but the key filter to people getting HR scores at all on the map was the combination of osu for ants + osu for Exgon.
