Understanding the Numbers
Your total PP is not the sum of all your plays. osu! uses a weighting system: your best play counts for 100% of its value, your second-best for 95%, your third-best for ~90.25%, and so on down your top 100. This means you need a consistent collection of strong plays — not just one lucky score.
To reach 2,500pp total, you need your top-100 weighted plays to average roughly 1,375pp across the board. That typically means having at least 15–20 plays in the 1,375–3,125pp range.
🎯 Strategy for Top 100k
Top 100k is within reach for dedicated intermediate players. Consistent 5★ FC with 97%+ accuracy, or 4★ HD/DT, gets you there. Expect your best play to be in the 180–250pp range.
Practical Steps
- Identify your "PP floor." Find the lowest PP value in your current top 100. Only grind maps where a good play would replace this floor play.
- Use the PP calculator before grinding. Enter the map's star rating, your expected accuracy, and your mod choice. Check whether a FC would improve your total.
- Spread plays across map types. A top 100 full of jump maps leaves speed and tech skills underdeveloped. Diversifying your play list helps both overall skill and rank progression.
- Track progress weekly, not daily. PP growth is non-linear. A week with no rank change followed by a breakthrough play is normal — do not judge progress day-by-day.
