@@whenisdinner2137 why would that be a problem tho? It's honestly up to vaxei if he wants to do that or not. And frankly he doesn't feel motivated enough to play all the time to be the absolute best. His tournament abilities prove enough tbh.
Prize pool, location and audience/popularity aside, I would say that the osu! world cup is still a really good e-sport experience. You have the best players from every country fight for the title as the best country in the world, its really serious and there are those insane moments that are immortalized forever, like Poland's win in 2017 or how Bubbleman just barely brought the UK team to tiebreaker by less than a 100 points in 2018. It happens every single year and is always one of the most hype events in osu! However, I understand what you mean by the Drenched program is much more closer to an e-sport experience than owc as theres a much bigger prize pool, a much bigger audience and was much more intense than owc considering that it was a 1v1 tournament.
First, he had his own E-sports team, and now, he hosted an entire tournament. This man has to be the biggest W ever for TH-cam 2022, and I look forward to him adding this to the next chapter of the Holy Bible.

combo game, a break from whitecat during the first map when fancy was only behind a bit on points and was up on combo is devastating for him, and they had similar acc so not much room to spare

That last map was "AR 11", which means it had an approach rate of 300ms - the circles are on screen for 300ms total. They had that amount of time to react to and aim and click, around 800 times, for nearly 4 minutes. Just to put into perspective how scary Vaxei's score was.
You should probably mention that the average reaction time is 240-270ms. Theirs is obviously lower, mines 160ms so I'm assuming there's is around there because it's impossible to read AR11 with a average reaction time.

As a result, when these players are using Hardrock and Doubletime together, the approach rate becomes so incredibly fast that most players, even skilled ones, would not able to accurately aim at the circles before the hit window. This is known as AR11 and was once thought to be impossible to play. As for the hit window, the level of accuracy with this mod combination makes clicking any circles accurately basically impossible, so the fact that Vaxei still maintained a 97% accuracy even while hitting short streams means that each of his inputs was very precise without even a slight mistake beyond the time that he missed.

@@dlz5709 yep it's very difficult to tell how spaced these patterns are like this especially for mobile viewers, also it's hard to tell how small the circles are and how fast your stamina can drain trying to tap.

@@adamwest8711 You could check out some top players of Clone hero, an unnoficial port of guitar hero to the Pc, it's very crazy what some of them can do
There was a map that vaxei was the only person to ever FC on and it was eight Stars which is way harder than anything in this tournament and he FCed it in a show match
i think its cool of moist to host osu tournaments, because even though usually in tournies the high ranks get prizes, its usually only a couple hundred dollars and a mediocre logitech keyboard. Also this game deserves a lot more exposure, being such a big game in terms of its amazing community but isnt well known at the same time
I’ve played this game for 5 years. It felt surreal to see osu on such a big stage with such huge stakes. Thanks so much for making this a video Charlie! If you enjoyed this, I HIGHLY recommend watching some team tournaments. The big 3 being Corsace, The Perennial, and the Osu! World Cup. This is such a fucking beautiful game, and I’m so happy it’s getting the spotlight it deserves.
You know what I love about you man, you have 10 almost 11 million subs, and your videos are a regular looking room, an iPhone headset, (it looks like) and no gimmicks or tricks or fancy meme editing or yelling and screaming “omg”. You’re calm cool collected. Love it man. Great job. Keep it up. I’ll be here.
I love Osu. I only played Mania but the sheer amount of maps out there for people to play was always so much fun. The journey of starting by barely being able to finish 1-star maps, to getting good scores in 4 or 5 star ones was a lot of fun.
Charlie thanks for keeping TH-cam fresh and for continuing to shoot and make videos that have the old school, self recorded, backyard content feel that TH-cam was built on. Banger video as always!
My god, Mystia saw their huge disadvantage and pulled out the most useful brazilian skill: *Workarounds* Then procceeded to absoutely bulldoze the scores and literally send Utami to Brazil, man I'm proud of this country
Unit: Brazilian Passive: Workaround -when disadvantaged this unit gains bonus intelligence and wisdom and bonus luck and rarity in crafting category (this bonus is doubled if the unit is using recycled materials) Active: Double Jump -this unit can double jump whilst holding a red sword
Damn I don't know how I didn't know about this until the upload. This is really freaking cool. I love seeing Charlie posting content about osu, let alone hosting a tournament!
Yeah, this footage is about a year old now, WhiteCat's reign at the top was just ending, mrekk was a known name but not the tier 1 wonderkind he is now, tuna was still playing, intercambing method was a fresh meme and Charlie just got added as a featured artist on osu! Wildly different time
as an osu player this tournament was really well put together and i had great fun watching it, arnold surprised me a lot and i'm excited to see utami destroy the new one!
it's already 3k, if that's not enough no one is ever going to beat it. also whitecat is grinding it, he just got 2x miss(in a dumb part) and 1xSB'd the hard part
As an avid rhythm game enjoyer, I'm very happy to see that you also love the same thing. Rhythm games are awesome, especially once you get to flow state.
I see people go hard at this game and think to myself "how much aderol do i gotta be on to react to react to this much stimulus?" Such an awesome show of skill
I knew this game was absolutely insane from the 3 minutes of total gameplay I've seen before but this really shows me how ridiculously hard this game is and especially how good some people like vaxei are at this game
as an osu player i am completely shocked that charlie would do something like this actually crazy that people outside the osu community take notice and even go as far as to host a tournament for it
Elite Beat Agents was such a sleeper hit on the DS for me, to see Osu hit this level of popularity feels incredible. It's like when you leave high school, come back in ten years, look through their Facebook and they are just loving life and you feel so proud despite not interacting for most of that decade.
Watching critical watch like world class osu for the first time is so gold, I remember watching cookiezi for the first time and I was so gobsmacked to the point I had to start playing
I love rhythm games being a musician and a gamer and osu was always my favorite, it's beyond fun and the feeling you get from an fc or a new high star is unlike anything else. I had to put the game down almost a year ago just because of how addicting it is but watching it is still super enjoyable.
Vaxei was a literal monster in this tournament. He had those big digits of comparison and mostly accuracy, he literally gave 2 of his opponents not a single score!
Really have to thank Charlie for organising this tournament considering how rare it is for Osu tournaments to have large prize pools. Really looking forward to Drenched 2.
i think this was around a year ago at this point, i'm very glad that the highlight came out so i can watch it easily! osu is a very cool game, especially at a tournament level
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Osu!, is in fact, osu!. The game has an all-lowercase name, mirroring its creator Dean "peppy" Herbert's habit of avoiding capital letters online. In a similar vein, many components of the game and related projects also have lowercase names, such as pp, the four gamemodes (osu!standard, osu!taiko, osu!catch, and osu!mania), and lazer. Due to many people habitually capitalizing the first letters of given names and being unfamiliar with names containing punctuation, this game is often incorrectly called "Osu!", "Osu", or even "OSU!". There really is an Osu! - the name is an abbreviation of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, a rhythm game for Nintendo DS that inspired peppy to make osu!. The circle clicking game people know today is osu!, with three lowercase letters and an exclamation mark.
I’ve never really ever seen osu but I don’t think there is a better testament of skill then this, vaxei has to be one of the greatest players of all time in any game ever
Most of the community does consider him the greatest player to touch the game, though its hard to really say because the game has evolved so much over the years and top players come and go.
i love how you could play those 2 screens in a vr headset and your brain would believe that its totally normal, really from time to time it would be confused when one guy messes up.
chocomint's Made of Fire HDDT 98.54 full combo. Without a doubt, one of the most impressive plays ever set in osu! history, but one that takes some experience to appreciate fully. In the 12 years that this map has been ranked, chocomint's score remains the ONLY DT FC, and there's much more to unpack about this score. While some maps easily convey how difficult they are through the raw aim, or speed requirements, Made of Fire is much more nuanced than it may seem at first glance. To help illustrate just how difficult this play is, I would like to break down and analyze aspects of the map and the play itself. Right off the bat, we get a sense of the density of the notes, and the reading difficulty associated. With DT applied, the map becomes around 243 bpm, and approximately AR 9.67, a higher note density than most players are used to. Still, this should be manageable, but adding to the difficulty is the constant rhythm of, and spacing of the patterns which continues for the entire map. These would already pose a significant challenge to players' rhythm sense, reading, and finger control, but with hidden, the reading becomes MUCH harder. This is all bread and butter to someone like chocomint, who plays maps with similar patterns all the time, but everything we've gone over is just the beginning. Ask any top player what the hardest part of Made of Fire is, and they will all say the aim control. Many of the patterns in this map are continuous with strange velocity and angle changes, which need very fine adjustments in a player's aim to hit. None are more apparent than the various zig-zag patterns, which appear in the highest spacing sections. These require a player to aim to each note in a 1/4th beat time window, while potentially changing to an almost opposite direction. This is where chocomint shines, as almost no players have the level of aim control which he does. Bringing it all together is where the magic of this play really lies. DT alone makes the aim control barely in reach for any other player, but adding hidden makes these highly control-intensive patterns nearly impossible. Following the rhythm on such a map can be hard already as well, and trying to keep high accuracy, given the layout of the patterns, becomes ridiculous too. The real challenge is diverting focus between the aim aspect and the tapping aspects of the map, while keeping your reading in check as well. Keeping up with the map the entire way through to such a degree is exactly why chocomint's play is so astonishing. It's hard to put into words how much skill goes into a play like this, but to get an idea, I recommend trying the map for yourself. chocomint's HDDT score truly is in a league of its own when it comes to the aspects described earlier. Just over 2 years after it was set, some players are now approaching DT FCs, but not with nearly as high accuracy, and the majority lacking hidden. For now, it will remain a dream play for every top play, and a reality for chocomint. Hopefully this video has given you some more insight into, and appreciation of, one of osu!'s best plays of all time.

ahhhh we’re coming full circle…Around a year ago, I watched your first video on “osu!” And I can safely say you got me addicted😂 from the time I saw it in last year in your two videos, to now, I’ve grinded and got myself to 83k global. All I have to say is thank you Charlie for showing me such an amazing community that’s created so many great memories for me and many others!
yoooo congrats on the grind! always feels so heartwarming to see the experience of newer people in the community, maybe I'll so you in the top 100 soon!
@@wozu__ i really appreciate that! This community is just way too great, I agree all too much. I hope to make it there eventually, but the journey is always better than the destination :)
Great event! As fellow fan of rhythm games myself, I think it'd be really cool if you did a stream/video of you going to the nearest Round1 and trying all the rhythm games there ie: sound voltex, beatmania iidx, wacca, DDR, chrono circle, gitadora, etc
Ikr. i tell my friends i play rhythm game in general and they think im playing those kids song in piano tiles. Many people still think rhythm game is just a kids game
massive gap in that last map though. I've only played osu abit and dang skill ceiling really is high when the score gap is that massive. I noticed that being an all-rounder is such a massive up especially in the case of vaxei, jack of all trades but master of all skills. Fiery's comment on Arnold being better in speed versus vaxei was definitely seen though. he hasn't lost a 1v1 tournament in how many years again? Thats crazy to me. From reading the other comments it seems that he just comes back to playing when a tourney is coming up which is also just unreal that his winstreak is this long. Anyway great hype and hope to see vaxei's performance in the new tourney (if he joins) cause I'm a fan of this Chad of a player
this mod combination is a really niche skillset, if you don't specialize in 3mod it's nearly unplayable. more to do with mod proficiency than skill ceiling, both players can play much higher star rating.

This is in a tournament setting, so the maps aren’t as hard as some of the other maps these guys can do, if you wanna see even crazier stuff you should check that all out
@@dlz5709 yep it's very difficult to tell how spaced these patterns are like this especially for mobile viewers, also it's hard to tell how small the circles are and how fast your stamina can drain trying to tap.
Honestly it takes a decent amount of play time to understand what's actually difficult about these maps instead of just seeing it all as inhumanly impressive

Tbf I've played since last year and they still look like robots, although tbf #2, I'm still a six digit :(
eh, it's all relative, cut em some slack
when i started playing a year ago i saw 4 digit players as actual gods 😭
I’ve played this game for 5 years. It felt surreal to see osu on such a big stage with such huge stakes. Thanks so much for making this a video Charlie!
If you enjoyed this, I HIGHLY recommend watching some team tournaments. The big 3 being Corsace, The Perennial, and the Osu! World Cup. This is such a fucking beautiful game, and I’m so happy it’s getting the spotlight it deserves.
You know what I love about you man, you have 10 almost 11 million subs, and your videos are a regular looking room, an iPhone headset, (it looks like) and no gimmicks or tricks or fancy meme editing or yelling and screaming “omg”. You’re calm cool collected. Love it man. Great job. Keep it up. I’ll be here.
I love Osu. I only played Mania but the sheer amount of maps out there for people to play was always so much fun. The journey of starting by barely being able to finish 1-star maps, to getting good scores in 4 or 5 star ones was a lot of fun.
Charlie thanks for keeping TH-cam fresh and for continuing to shoot and make videos that have the old school, self recorded, backyard content feel that TH-cam was built on. Banger video as always!
I love charlies reaction to this, gives me nostalgia when i for the first time clicked to watch replays of people SS'ing 6-star maps
It was great to see such a huge tourney, in which osu! was broadcasted to a much larger audience than usual. Thank you for the entertainment Charlie.
I love osu! and i love Charlie so im really happy about the tournament happening again! we love you charlie!
There is actually no way Vaxei just did that on 3 mod Magic Girl in tournament. That pick is fucking illegal.
My god, Mystia saw their huge disadvantage and pulled out the most useful brazilian skill: *Workarounds*
Then procceeded to absoutely bulldoze the scores and literally send Utami to Brazil, man I'm proud of this country
Unit: Brazilian
Passive: Workaround
-when disadvantaged this unit gains bonus intelligence and wisdom and bonus luck and rarity in crafting category (this bonus is doubled if the unit is using recycled materials)
Active: Double Jump
-this unit can double jump whilst holding a red sword

Yeah, this footage is about a year old now, WhiteCat's reign at the top was just ending, mrekk was a known name but not the tier 1 wonderkind he is now, tuna was still playing, intercambing method was a fresh meme and Charlie just got added as a featured artist on osu! Wildly different time
The whole tournament's just Charlie getting mind blown by all the plays
I've been playing Osu since 2015 so seeing Charlie enjoying the community is amazing!

As an avid rhythm game enjoyer, I'm very happy to see that you also love the same thing. Rhythm games are awesome, especially once you get to flow state.
ive never known osu tournaments are this hype. im literally saying "no way _____ lose these" THE ENTIRE TIME
I see people go hard at this game and think to myself "how much aderol do i gotta be on to react to react to this much stimulus?" Such an awesome show of skill
I knew this game was absolutely insane from the 3 minutes of total gameplay I've seen before but this really shows me how ridiculously hard this game is and especially how good some people like vaxei are at this game
Charlie hosting the biggest osu tournament ever sounds exactly like something he would do, yet it is still unbelievable
should do a clone hero tourney next. Those are very fun to watch too and the community around it is amazing.
6:43 It's just so funny to see Charlie host a whole Osu tournament and he doesn't even now where to look for the songs length!
as an osu player i am completely shocked that charlie would do something like this
actually crazy that people outside the osu community take notice and even go as far as to host a tournament for it
Elite Beat Agents was such a sleeper hit on the DS for me, to see Osu hit this level of popularity feels incredible.
It's like when you leave high school, come back in ten years, look through their Facebook and they are just loving life and you feel so proud despite not interacting for most of that decade.
every time the ds is mentioned my parents will rave about ouendan lol i really wish i was good at any of these because they look so fun

Watching critical watch like world class osu for the first time is so gold, I remember watching cookiezi for the first time and I was so gobsmacked to the point I had to start playing
This was such an insane event, Vaxei really dominated but the others really put up a show
I love the intercambing v arnold face off so much intercambing and arnold really were at their best in that moment
When it comes to tournaments there is Vaxei and there is everyone else
Osu is the kinda game you pick up every now and then if you’re not this insane at it, but whenever you do it’s hard to put down
47:56 it was at this moment arnold triggered vaxies second phase
48:17 it was at this moment arnold realized how underlevel he was for the boss fight
I love rhythm games being a musician and a gamer and osu was always my favorite, it's beyond fun and the feeling you get from an fc or a new high star is unlike anything else. I had to put the game down almost a year ago just because of how addicting it is but watching it is still super enjoyable.
if youre a musician you should try taiko no tatsujin, its a rly fun drum based rhythm game with a cute artstyle thats also pretty easy to learn :3
damn i remember seeing this live
this gives me goosebumps

Really have to thank Charlie for organising this tournament considering how rare it is for Osu tournaments to have large prize pools. Really looking forward to Drenched 2.

i think this was around a year ago at this point, i'm very glad that the highlight came out so i can watch it easily!
osu is a very cool game, especially at a tournament level
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Osu!, is in fact, osu!. The game has an all-lowercase name, mirroring its creator Dean "peppy" Herbert's habit of avoiding capital letters online. In a similar vein, many components of the game and related projects also have lowercase names, such as pp, the four gamemodes (osu!standard, osu!taiko, osu!catch, and osu!mania), and lazer. Due to many people habitually capitalizing the first letters of given names and being unfamiliar with names containing punctuation, this game is often incorrectly called "Osu!", "Osu", or even "OSU!". There really is an Osu! - the name is an abbreviation of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, a rhythm game for Nintendo DS that inspired peppy to make osu!. The circle clicking game people know today is osu!, with three lowercase letters and an exclamation mark.
No one cares bruh

I’ve never really ever seen osu but I don’t think there is a better testament of skill then this, vaxei has to be one of the greatest players of all time in any game ever
Most of the community does consider him the greatest player to touch the game, though its hard to really say because the game has evolved so much over the years and top players come and go.

chocomint's Made of Fire HDDT 98.54 full combo. Without a doubt, one of the most impressive plays ever set in osu! history, but one that takes some experience to appreciate fully. In the 12 years that this map has been ranked, chocomint's score remains the ONLY DT FC, and there's much more to unpack about this score. While some maps easily convey how difficult they are through the raw aim, or speed requirements, Made of Fire is much more nuanced than it may seem at first glance. To help illustrate just how difficult this play is, I would like to break down and analyze aspects of the map and the play itself. Right off the bat, we get a sense of the density of the notes, and the reading difficulty associated. With DT applied, the map becomes around 243 bpm, and approximately AR 9.67, a higher note density than most players are used to. Still, this should be manageable, but adding to the difficulty is the constant rhythm of, and spacing of the patterns which continues for the entire map. These would already pose a significant challenge to players' rhythm sense, reading, and finger control, but with hidden, the reading becomes MUCH harder. This is all bread and butter to someone like chocomint, who plays maps with similar patterns all the time, but everything we've gone over is just the beginning. Ask any top player what the hardest part of Made of Fire is, and they will all say the aim control. Many of the patterns in this map are continuous with strange velocity and angle changes, which need very fine adjustments in a player's aim to hit. None are more apparent than the various zig-zag patterns, which appear in the highest spacing sections. These require a player to aim to each note in a 1/4th beat time window, while potentially changing to an almost opposite direction. This is where chocomint shines, as almost no players have the level of aim control which he does. Bringing it all together is where the magic of this play really lies. DT alone makes the aim control barely in reach for any other player, but adding hidden makes these highly control-intensive patterns nearly impossible. Following the rhythm on such a map can be hard already as well, and trying to keep high accuracy, given the layout of the patterns, becomes ridiculous too. The real challenge is diverting focus between the aim aspect and the tapping aspects of the map, while keeping your reading in check as well. Keeping up with the map the entire way through to such a degree is exactly why chocomint's play is so astonishing. It's hard to put into words how much skill goes into a play like this, but to get an idea, I recommend trying the map for yourself. chocomint's HDDT score truly is in a league of its own when it comes to the aspects described earlier. Just over 2 years after it was set, some players are now approaching DT FCs, but not with nearly as high accuracy, and the majority lacking hidden. For now, it will remain a dream play for every top play, and a reality for chocomint. Hopefully this video has given you some more insight into, and appreciation of, one of osu!'s best plays of all time.

Ur great for hosting another tournament! hopefully there will be more
I like how everything Charlie does must be the "biggest ever" hahaha the bigger the better daddy
never heard of this game, so I went ahead and installed it to try it - borderline impossible. These guys are built different
massive gap in that last map though. I've only played osu abit and dang skill ceiling really is high when the score gap is that massive. I noticed that being an all-rounder is such a massive up especially in the case of vaxei, jack of all trades but master of all skills. Fiery's comment on Arnold being better in speed versus vaxei was definitely seen though.
he hasn't lost a 1v1 tournament in how many years again? Thats crazy to me.
From reading the other comments it seems that he just comes back to playing when a tourney is coming up which is also just unreal that his winstreak is this long.
Anyway great hype and hope to see vaxei's performance in the new tourney (if he joins) cause I'm a fan of this Chad of a player
this mod combination is a really niche skillset, if you don't specialize in 3mod it's nearly unplayable. more to do with mod proficiency than skill ceiling, both players can play much higher star rating.
Vaxei didn't join, he is too rich.
3 mod is impossible if you haven’t put hours into it before, Vaxei can somewhat read 3mod and has 3 mod farm FCs
I needed a nap after just watching these matches. I can't even imagine playing this.
