why are a lot of ranked maps that you must use the keyboard (except if you have a robotic-faster hand U_U), I mean there are maps that have streams in some parts of the map, that's ok, but I hate maps full of streams because you have to use the keyboard in almost the whole song ¬¬ I think that streamy-maps should be unranked, because osu! was initially made for being used with the mouse, not with keyboard. I know that some people have skills with the keyboard, that's good, but there are much more people who prefers using the mouse in most part of a map, and get screwed when they play a streamy-maps...

Give your opinion plz :D

if osu! was made for mouse usage only, I don't think peppy would have added tablet support or z/xing to begin with...
My own 2 cents.
Also the title makes me go WTF?

Use Left/Right mouse buttons for streams. Problem solved.

I'm referring to maps like Red Zone (Extra diff, or Doomsday one). I'm not saying that they're bad done, but they're not funny. I play almost all the map just with the keyboard, and I don't feel any rhythm... It has no creativity or stuff, just streams, streams and streams... But not only this map, there are a lot of maps that are like this, just streams...


well, that's my opinion ^^

P.D: I like the other diffs of Red Zone, I only was setting an example ;)

So the only real problem here is that you don't like the map(s). Solution: Don't play them. Other people do like them.

also,

The solution is to get better with your mouse even more (it's possible really). There's always room for improvement.

How many maps are actually unplayable with the mouse? If you can click fast enough on the keyboard you should be able to click fast enough on the mouse too. The only problem I experience is streams which are mixed with jumps or require a lot of mouse movement. I have different grips on my mouse for control and for mass-clicking, so that kind of makes some maps irritating, but those maps are few and far between. Making them unranked is a little extreme. Like someone else suggested: Simple solution = Don't play them.

I'm referring to extremely streamy maps. And I don't see what's fun in a map you just have to click the whole song, because I don't get rhythm. OK maybe it's a bad idea to unrank that maps, but... well do you all think that extremely-streamy maps are fun?

On Lucidity's comment:

I myself have different mouse positions for different "modes" as well. That made it harder to play osu! with just the mouse.

Also, your hands are different. Just because you can alt quickly with your left hand, your right hand may not keep up. My left hand is a bit more trained than my right hand for accuracy (even though my right hand can go much quicker, being dominant).

Also, maps aren't ranked for "fun." "Fun" is highly subjective and isn't a ranking criteria. No map should be deranked because of subjectivity or something not present in the ranking criteria used for that map (unless there are severe issues outside that).

I must admit, the slogan is "Rhythm is just a CLICK away" not "Rhythm is just X/Y away"
