Z-I-v Battle Royale 2020

Carmina (t7r)
- Good sync
- Good blending of rhythms of different parts of song
- Gallop sections nicely done
- I wanted to see the middle 12ths charted as 12ths and not 16ths
- Brutal but sensible crossover runs
- Some spots where I feel that gimmicks would've made sense

Divers (TonyAkita)
- Good sync
- Nice inclusion of spins
- Good difficulty buildup; rhythm changes make sense
- Nice patterning consistency
- Feels a little understepped

Dolphika (brunobg)
- Sync feels good, maybe a hair late
- Wanted to see jumps as accents a little more around 0:35, but subjective
- 16ths go nicely to the music, although flow feels a tad repetitive around the middle at times
- Nice turns near the end; they're mild but add flair to the chart
- Subjectively I like this one quite a bit

Flying High (EmeraldX)
- Early
- Clean patterning, to my tastes
- Feels very DDR like
- Doublestep at m47
- A few rhythm choices (e.g. substituting some gallops for 16th bursts) confound me, but otherwise rhythms make sense

High Horse (ohaiimian)
- Sync is a little late?
- Gallops used nicely; rhythms balance karaoke stepping with background
- Imo an 11
- I would've used freezes on the second repetition of lines like "Giddy up"
- Feels like how the A20 western licenses were charted
- Impeccable flow

If Love Was a Crime (Oni)
- Slightly early?
- Patterning fits the song well; balances karaoke stepping with background
- Would've liked to see a tiny bit more attention to detail at some points
- Freezes used in the middle-8 section nicely

Light of my life (Marten)
- Good sync
- Mini-jacks and freezes used really well
- Clean patterning
- Nice job with charting the 16ths
- No real complaints
- Abrupt cut? Not sure if that's just how the song ends

Mami Mami Zone (led)
- Good sync
- Nice song pick
- Patterning looks really fun; good patterning sense
- Not sure why some of the 'claps' in the verse section are charted as UD jumps and not others
- Rhythm switches in and out of karaoke stepping really nicely
- Freezes might be used a little too much
- Seems very pad-friendly; uses breaks where necessary and builds difficulty well

On Fire (K-Step)
- Good sync
- Clean patterning
- 16ths are a little harsh for an 11, but they're nice
- Would've liked to see the 8ths match the melodies a little more, but this is a nitpick
- Rhythms work well

Out My Head (VanEden)
- Good sync
- Precise, almost ITG tech-like patterning as usual
- Good use of candles, especially at the end
- 16ths might be pushing it a little (overcharting)

retract.shine (Kex)
- Good sync
- Freezes used effectively; makes for interesting patterning
- Would've liked to see jumps accent the kicks a little more in the first half
- Turns are creative and flow well
- May be hard to reorient yourself if you lose your way even once in the turns though

Shine On Me (chewi)
- Sync feels weird; can't figure it out
- Nice balance of karaoke stepping
- Clean patterning with great turn usage, but the low level does make it feel a little unexciting

Take Me to Pleasure Island (Pandy)
- Good sync
- Would like to see patterning cover multiple elements of the song more, e.g. in spots like the beginning with the 16ths
- Good flow and rhythms
- Nice job covering the 16ths in the background
- Feels a little repetitive in the middle; maybe shake things up with the patterning?
- Clean

Undercover (gameboy)
(I looked at Expert)
- Good sync
- 'Moderation' feels like the keyword for this chart. Every element is implemented in moderation and it works well
- Nice turns
- Doublesteps? make sense

Underworld Holography (ForcedNature)
- Good sync
- Woah that beginning
- 8ths turns in the verse are nice, especially how they're partially resolved by the 16ths
- A little too 'nonstop' - imo there need to be some breathers - why not clear out some of the karaoke stepping between the two chorus sections?
- Lv17 for sure; the stamina requirement, bits like the 24ths and 16th density is way too much for a 16
- Doubles is a Lv18 lol
