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

xRGTMx vs CuzcoBlocko vs The Legendary DJXYZ:
Enigma Machine was good but felt a bit all over the place, though probably just because PROG METAL. Chance It was much better than I was expecting, but Expert was a little heavy on the crossovers. Ocean Avenue's audio quality was kinda low; the steps weren't terrible but weren't anything special. This one ended up being quite a bit closer than I was anticipating.
Winner: Enigma Machine

DDRDAIKENKAI vs ddrstepper
Dream Position had fun steps but the song was kinda meh. Some VGM can work well, but this one didn't quite click for me. I really liked Դե էլ Մի's fun rhythms, and it was stepped well to follow them. Inevitably, that was the deciding factor here.
Winner: Դե էլ Մի

darkanine vs Quickman
PARANOiA CLiMAX was very solid; both the song and steps felt like an official PARANOiA. It was maybe a tad too streamy, though. Violent seemed very slightly off-sync, and some of the gimmicks and speed changes felt unnecessary.
Winner: PARANOiA CLiMAX

Oni-91 vs gameboy573
FIRE FIREは電気スウィングの夢を見るか？ was, once again, a very solid entry. Personally I thought they should've been 24ths but it still seemed fine somehow...? Anyway, may the better file win!

Telperion vs xXMokou98Xx vs hypnoticmarten77
I really liked Crepuscular Rays, both the song and steps; it was all very solid. Le Petit Prince had very good gimmicks, though the opening one seemed a bit cheap. Gale Rider is a great song, and the steps were pretty good too. This one was very close and a very tough call for me.
Winner: Crepuscular Rays

tsugaru7reveng vs Sigrev2
I really liked both of these songs. Arabian Rave Night was great, but maybe a tad overstepped in places? And MANA was very solid, but felt a bit too streamy at times. Between two great BEMANI songs, it was a tough call.
Winner: Arabian Rave Night

Spork! vs Nezemarth vs JunkoXXX
Energia! was overall pretty good. Song was OK, steps were alright, though I could've done without those streams in the speedups on Challenge. Muusou Mesorogiwi was overall just OK. The steps didn't really jump out at me. Element of SPADA wasn't terrible but still, the steps felt a bit too disconnected, like you weren't sure where your patterns were going at times.
Winner: Energia!

Lisek vs Astroman129
Ronron e rairairai!'s steps were pretty fun! The slowdown didn't seem totally necessary though. Clap Snap was well charted for the song, but I just really didn't care for the song. Stepwise, these two were very close, but song preference ended up deciding this one for me.
Winner: Ronron e rairairai!

vincentw vs NuVirus vs usaminseijin
Photo Shoot was a fun song, albeit a bit slow and long. Steps were really good though! Shiwase ni Nareru(etc.) was kind of a weird song. The steps were OK but it seemed like you tried too hard to follow the 'vocals' and could've branched out a bit. To Make the End of Battle was a good song (kinda makes me wanna play Ys) but the step patterns were a bit too simple.
Winner: Photo Shoot

Spirit of Nightmare vs chewi
You Carved Your Name was overall just OK. The song was fine, the steps were fine, nothing really jumped out at me. The song of みんなのうた was fine, but I really liked the steps. I loved the call-and-answer bit in the middle, really fun!
Winner: みんなのうた

Gameoson vs CLOUDIO
Danse de Romani had phenomenal steps, as I've come to expect from Gameoson. GASPANIK was very good too, though. The song was good, and the steps were also really good. This one was also kinda close, but...
Winner: Danse de Romani

ohaiimian vs Aegis
Sakura Luminance had very good steps, but I felt like the song dragged a little bit. Maybe it felt too much like "just another Sakura song". I really liked The Queen as a song, and the steps were really good too! Also, dat art.
Winner: The Queen

brunobg24 vs Pandemonium X vs Braeden47
一触即発☆禅ガール had overall pretty good charts. I liked the Challenge a bit better personally. 罪と罰 was very solid, but didn't really jump out at me in any way. I felt the steps followed the vocals a bit too much. I didn't really care for Luvly Merry Go Round at all. The song wasn't great, and the steps were kinda all over the place.
Winner: 一触即発☆禅ガール

Densetsu.EXE vs Loodee
Oshama Scramble! was pretty good. The steps followed the song well but still felt a little too crazy at times. Or maybe I was just distracted by that BGA. Sweet Devil was a great song and had very good usage of gimmicks. I actually liked Expert more than Challenge here.
Winner: Sweet Devil (colate remix)

ledgam3r1279 vs HealingDMax300 vs SupremeX
コスモス was overall solid but also just OK for me; can't really say much more about it. Shadows Of Our Past was also just kinda OK; the steps could've been varied a little bit more. Twinbee's Home Town Song's steps were a bit too scattered and didn't feel very solid. Also, when there's only one slowdown I don't think you need the ??? BPM.
Winner: コスモス

mf32892 vs Feraligatr
Misery Business - I like the song, but you used too much 'karaoke steps', especially in the verses. You shouldn't really put in those off-beat 16ths just to follow the vocals closer. Also the sync seemed to drift a bit toward the end. With Me was an overall OK song, but the steps were quite fun. The patterns felt a little weird at times though.
Winner: With Me
