Best DDR Chart Tournament Redux

We had the worst DDR Chart tournament, so we might as well do one for good charts, especially since Konami's charting quality has gone up a LOT in the past few years.

Tournament Rules:
1) This is going to run identically to MissingUTAH's worst chart tournament, so groups of 4, then single elimination brackets. IF enough interest arises, I would ideally like to do 128 charts instead of 64 charts, but we'll see how popular the nomination phase is.

2) For the group elimination round, each person gets five points to allocate to no more than two charts. For all subsequent rounds, each person votes for one chart only.

3) Brackets open and close at 6 PM EST every day. If there's a significant delay, I will let you all know.

Nomination Phase Rules:
In the comments below, nominate four charts of any difficulty for the tournament. The same song can be nominated multiple times, as long as you are nominating a different chart. You are nominating DDR Officials only -- so no ITG officials or custom community charts! Like I said, my goal is for 128 charts in the tournament, but if interest wanes I'll cap it at 64 again.

BREAK DOWN!

Toxic (FT company edit) (Double )


If doubles charts aren't allowed, replace Toxic with Cow Girl

---

I was thinking doubles would be done in a separate tournament, since everyone else was nominating single charts.

---

Yes -- please nominate singles charts only.

---

Welp, here we go.

Start a New Day
CHAOS (Terror-Tech Mix)
Magnetic
Saber Wing Satellite Silhouette

Note: these are not my definitive top 4 charts of all time, these are just charts that I would probably put in my top 20 or so that I think are the most interesting that aren't too easy and therefore easier to make.

That's kind of why I think a best chart tourney is more interesting at this point in DDR's history -- I think a "worst charts ever" list is a lot easier to make than a "best charts ever" list. The criteria for what makes a good chart is a lot more flexible, and less obvious, than saying "A Geisha's Dream (Ruffage Remix) is bad" for the thousandth time.

---

I feel like this would be far more interesting with double charts as opposed to single charts, because there's far more ways in which a chart can impress/disappoint people as opposed to single charts. Nevertheless, the more people disagree on what's best, the more interesting it gets, yeah.

---

I'd love to see a worst doubles charts tournament personally, because there are so, so many more bad doubles charts than singles charts, even in modern mixes.

Anyway, we're halfway to 64 y'all, keep the nominations going.

I had to give this some thought and came up with these four which I all think have something special about them.

You're being silly, right? Cuz most of this belongs in that tourney we just finished lol

I know. I know. I just want to bring them back one more time.

these are bar none my favorite charts in the game. i love all of them (hard brain too but tikal already chose that)

Please only nominate charts that you actually think are good. If you think 5.1.1. s good, then go for it, but if you're nominating it as a shitpost it should be changed.
