Z-I-v Simfile Tournament of Immortals 6 [Sankyuu For Praying]

Danse de Romani / MUE
2/3 4/5 6/8 8/11 9/13

FUN FACT: Even though I usually do just fine in the qualifier, I've never actually won against another stepper during the bracket stage of the Tournament of Immortals. In ToI 4 I made it past rounds 1 and 2 because whoever I was up against didn't submit in time, then I got beaten by Telperion in Round 3. In ToI 5 I had a bye day for Round 1 due to being the #2 seed and then I got beaten by DDRDAIKENKAI in round 2. So assuming my bad luck continues, CLOUDIO stands a pretty good chance.

[Round 1]

Energia! - Russkaja
BPM: 85-255
Genre: War-SKA Polka
Length: 1:36
S: 1 (1) / 5 (6) / 7 (9) / 9 (13) / 12 (16)

OMG I used an official Jacket. The world must be about to end.

This is a disaster waiting to happen. But I figure if I'm going to go out, may as well do it early! and both focus on spins during the speedups, while is more of a crossover/8th practice chart. is just silly, with mines marking the "Hut Hut Hut Hut"'s in the background as well as syllables of ENERGIA during the choruses with a splattering of jumps, 16th runs, and 24th trills. I am NOT sorry if you throw up after doing all the spins on Heavy - the dizzy is strong!
In before "Double Steps" comes up...I triple quadruple quintuple checked it. There are none.

This is also my first serious attempt at including a video. EPILEPSY WARNING though, tons of flashes during the speedup. Play safe! The first half of the video seems a little offbeat (maybe a render issue?) but it gets right about 30 seconds in. This is ALSO my first attempt at stepping Ska. I hope it's fun for people, as I don't expect to make it past the first round with this madness xD

Nah, but seriously, I've lost to Mokou in enough rounds of Summer Contests to know this is no smooth sailing

sky_delta feat. Hatsune Miku - "Crepuscular Rays"
BPM: 182
SN: 1　|　SE: 4　|　SM: 8　|　SH: 9

Why was six afraid of seven? Because seven submitted a nine-footer to a Z-I-v contest.
Personally, I'd call this artcore, but I'll respect the composer's wishes.

You Carved Your Name / Swingfly feat. Helena Gutarra
BPM: 135-167
1 4 6 8

So... this is what I'm sending to counter Chewi. This song is very retro-ish, harkening back to the 90's eurobeat/rave music with a slight touch of electro, all of this despite that it came out in early 2016. Fact is, it participated in the Swedish national song contest "Melodifestivalen" in the 2016 edition, where it... fell out early in its semi-final, because most swedes don't understand good music. Hope it'll do better here... Regardless, don't worry too much about the slowdown to 135, it's just a gradual one in the very end of the song.

As for the graphics, save for the jacket, I'll have to go with the generic banner and bg for now, but when they're done, the file will be updated.

罪と罰 [Tsumi to Batsu] / Xceon feat.Mayumi Morinaga
BPM: 144
- 1 - 3 - 6 - 8

BPM:

Human Nature wasn't a good song in the last round, so I started to dedicate more for my next song, anyway, I like this Sota music, I think this version is more close than Twinbee's from FinalOffset so I decided to make it for stepmania. Thanks to CuzcoBlocko and all user who sent me their criticism, It's better for me to improve my simfiles, well I hope this song makes you enjoy!

Submission GET! I did my best, I have no regrets!

RATINGS
Classic | 2 | 4 | 6 | 9 | 9 |
X-Scale | 3 | 6 | 10 | 14 | 13 |
Warning: This track is straight out of the early millenium alternative scene. Please excuse the outdated audio.
I decided against the "no gimmicks" plan for a twist I've used before. Expert and Challenge are both 9's, but Expert is a straightforward DDR chart while Challenge focuses on ITG elements like mine-marked footswitches and rolls. There is one predictable stop and a slight ending slowdown (hence the 164 in the BPM marker; it's nearly all 174). Also features a revised cdtitle!

I had a lot of fun with this, so I hope a few of you enjoy this too. Personally I think the and are the most fun to play but that's my own opinion, maybe that's just me trying to tell you play something besides only.

Best of luck to my fellow competitors this week, may the best simfile win
