Absurd Displays of Skill

Post by XoPachi »

High level DDR is super impressive.

Deshiken OCV at cooperation cup. Just walking through a team of Japan's finest. Would be impressive even 3v3 format at this high level, but this is 5v5 single elimination.

Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

For other Rhythm games, SILLYB is one of the best IIDX DP players and has been streaming for a few years now. He's pretty casually doing things people I would have said were impossible back when I was playing (He's been AAAing things like Quasar DPA for years).It's pretty cool to finally have this level of exposure to DP mastery.

On the SP side, RAG is probably pushing things in the most interesting/crazy ways these days. Whilethere's a lot of players making incremental progress on world class scores, RAG is doing shit like improving his score on impossible meme charts, full comboing extremely difficult songs that are sped up using training tools, and playing everything with every single key randomized.
