Mostly Unheard song, from HL2 BETA, and is a mixture of suitsong_3/triage at dawn and the radio music.

Plus some great piano solos.

:D

The timing is pretty much right on. You've got some spacing issues in the part you've mapped, most noticeably at 00:24:61 (3) and 00:42:39 (4). And isn't there something you could do about the unnecessarily long video?...

I like custom sounds/skin alot. I think making custom hitcircles would be even more effective.

On to the actual mapping:

Fast Zombie:
00:27:67 (2) - Too close to (1).
00:31:28 (1) - Too far from end of (4).
00:35:72 (1) - Too close to (2).
00:40:72 (1) - Too close to end of (4).
00:42:39 (4) - Too far from (3).
00:47:39 (5) - Perhaps too far from (4), definitely too far from (6).
01:12:39 (1) - (1) - (6) are too close to each other, spread them out more.
01:31:28 (3) - (3) - (5) are too close together.
01:34:33 (2) - Too close to (3).
01:53:50 (1) - Too close to (2).
01:58:22 (4) - Too close to (3), too far from (5).

These apply to other difficulties as well.

So, let's see. Like I said, I love the custom sound for the spinner. Well, it makes me laugh. But now about the beatmap itself.

It's nice :P There are some issues though. I'm gonna list them:

Fast Zombie:

- 00:47:40 (5,6): I do think they're a little too far away from 4. That annoys me a bit, and since this is the easiest difficulty, you should space them a bit more equally.
- 01:02:40 (1): The slider is a bit too tough for beginners. This is the easiest difficulty blah blah blah. :P

Zombie:

- 01:31:28 (3,4,5): I think, they're spaced a bit too near to each other. People could think you have to tap very fast because they're so close.
- 01:34:05 (1,2,3): 2 is a bit too far away from 1.
- 01:58:22 (3,4,5): 4 is spaced a bit too near to 3, and 5 is too far away from 4.
- 02:12:39 (3,4,5,6): I think 4, 5, 6 are spaced a bit too far away from 3's end. It doesn't matter that much, but it bothers me a bit.

Poison Zombie:

- 01:31:28 (3,4,5): I think, they're spaced a bit too near to each other. People could think you have to tap very fast because they're so close. (Know this line?)
- 01:34:05 (1,2,3): 2 is a bit too far away from 1. (Or this one?)
- 01:58:22 (3,4,5): 4 is spaced a bit too near to 3, and 5 is too far away from 4. (lol)
- 02:12:39 (3,4,5,6): I think 4, 5, 6 are spaced a bit too far away from 3's end. It doesn't matter that much, but it bothers me a bit. (lolwutl)
- 03:49:05 (3,4): Yai, something new! 4 is spaced to far away from 3.

Antlion Guard:

- 01:00:17 (5,6): Can you see it? you have to tap 6 EXACTLY at the same time as the slider 5 ends. Fix this.
- 01:34:05 (1,2,3): 2 is a bit too far away from 1. (Well...)
- 01:55:72 (5,6,7,8) You spaced it that way: (5)--(6)----(7)--(8). Move it that way: (5)---(6)---(7)---(8)
Or, in words: 7 is too far away from 6. Fix that.
- 01:58:50 (4,5): 5 definitely is too far away from 4.
- 02:11:28 (7,1,2,3): 7, 2 and 3 have to be tapped whilde slider 1 is going: NO
- 03:33:50 (16,1,2,3): 16 has to be tapped while 1 is going, 2's beginning is 1's ending and 3 has to be tapped while 2 is going. Once again: NOEZ!


GMan:

- 01:34:05 (1,2,3): 2 is a bit too far away from 1.(...Ugh...)
- 01:55:72 (5,6,7,8) You spaced it that way: (5)--(6)----(7)--(8). Move it that way: (5)---(6)---(7)---(8)
Or, in words: 7 is too far away from 6. Fix that. (:D)
- 01:58:50 (4,5): 5 definitely is too far away from 4.(D:)

Fix that and get this ranked.

The "Holy crap, antlions!" line doesn't really fit the somber tone of the song.

Timing's pretty good. Even though it won't make much of a difference, I still think it sounds better and would say to use a 17,950 offset, which is only +2 of what you have.

Fast Zombie
01:02:39 (1) - I think this should be a little closer to the slider end before it.

Zombie. (You should take that period out unless you have a reason for it)
01:31:28 (3,4,5) - Spread these out.
03:26:28 (2) - This could stand to be moved just a tad bit further away from the 1. Just to be safe.

Poison Zombie
01:33:50 (1,2,3) - Uh, no. Make the 3 closer, which I guess would mean the 4 should come closer, too. Or you could just move the 1 a little higher up.
02:26:83 (7) - New Combo
02:29:89 (10) - New Combo
03:11:83 (10) - New Combo or make it closer to the 9.

Advisor
03:45:17 (3,4) - This is a little too far and it's less predictable than the other wonky spacing.

a 17,950 offset makes stuff late...but i did change it to 17,946, seems better

Zombie.
03:55:72 (1,2,3,4) - I'm starting to wonder why these four notes are here. You have a 10 second spinner, which is a little long, by the way, then a little break, then four notes and that's it. So...weird.

Poison Zombie
02:28:08 (2) - Syncs to nothing. At least nothing a human can hear at normal speed.

This map isn't bad, but I still think it's just shy of a Bubble. Star for now.

Edit: I would think about making those spinners shorter. At least the one in the middle.
