Scorewatch: September Week 1

September has finally arrived and players are working hard to keep this scorewatch article lively! A champion above champions, a new score on Atama no Taisou, and Toy's blast from the past play, all in this week's scorewatch article!

-GN is now a champion above champions (quite literally, he got a title on his userpage)! What did he do? He became the first player to no mod FC Blind Stare - Shotgun Symphony+ since it got ranked (which was 8 years ago!) with a brilliant 98.26% score to take a mere 213pp, but don't let the pp fool you. What a score, and what a player! Take a bow -GN, give him the love he deserves!

Neliel has shook the osu! community once again with an impressive performance on Hatsune Miku - Atama no Taisou, taking a 99.60% FC to earn 387pp, becoming the first player to no mod FC the difficulty and the third player to FC this currently on leaderboards! Get ready for some intense action brought to you by the No. 2 German!

Doomsday catches a big one this week with his new top play on xi - Halcyon -Long Version-, setting an incredible 99.54% FC to earn 531pp. More FCs are sure to follow, but this one is something not to miss!

Zyph proudly takes 2nd spot on Camellia - PLANET//SHAPER with a brilliant 99.77% FC to claim 531pp, becoming one of only a handful of players to FC this masterpiece.

BLAST FROM THE PAST

Toy gets featured for this section as he tears through Kitsune^2 - Tung, The Icelandic Lesbian with a crazy 96.68% HDDT FC, earning 258pp. This man has quite the control, missing only one slider end through this 240BPM 2011 map!

Once again, do support osu!archive (it is still ongoing on the osugame reddit), more scores are being churned out as this gets published!

NOTABLE MENTIONS

Karthy has taken the 2nd spot on DragonForce - Above the Winter Moonlight with his amazing 99.28% HDHR FC, taking 574pp and beating out the likes of Beafowl, Mathi and FunOrange! With that, he has also leaped into the global top 50!

Amidst the controversy of touchscreen plays, someone has stepped up and taken a 700pp score with the playstyle! Enter freedomdiver, setting a 90.10% HDNC FC on Izumi Akazawa (CV. Madoka Yonezawa) - Responsibility Response to take 708pp. Insert civilized discussions of this playstyle here.
