Note: The list is and will be a work in progress for a while, until the SH community comes to a consensus.
General Rules:
> This thread will focus on Expert. This is subject to change.
> Keep discussion civil.
> Songs that have an asterisk (*) next to them may be considerably harder than their current placement depict, IF a one handed technique is used. The list will favor the most convenient method or technique for achieving full combos on every song. Songs that have a (G) are songs that contain glissandos.

According to wulfe, antibodies has no octave shifting whatsoever. I think it shouldn't be so high on the list, considering the shifting of the track is pretty hard to get used to. _________________

I don't think it's possible to make an accurate Pro Keys FC breakdown when people aren't even used to the visual aspects of it yet, like above. If one was going to FC everything on Pro Keys, do you really think the shifting would be a determining factor for them?
Basically, this thread didn't just jump the gun, the guy with the pistol hadn't even gotten there yet. _________________

I can say this much, Need You Tonight is the very bottom. It's one chord all song. |

I agree with NEed you Tonight being at the very bottom. It's only 1 chord the entire time.
EDIT: Err, nevermind |

Antibodies will be FC'd in no time - I have tech FC'd it already (hate that term), but compared to some other charts, it's really not too bad.
The only tracks I can really see being huge stumbling blocks for an FGFC are:
Roundabout (seriously, the hardest final tier song in the entire game on any instrument - I've devoted tons of time to it, and still haven't even 4*'d it)
Llama (not undoable, but it's going to take a monster run to get it - easier than Roundabout though).
Impossible
BoRap - easy FC once you learn the notes - no parts of any technical difficulty at all
Saturday Night - nothing hard here either
China Grove - I've nearly FC'd this - gold starred already - won't be a problem - fun fun song actually - bit at the end with the random three note chords is weird though.
Sister Christian - nothing unFCable here - My best is 97%, but definitely doable
Free Bird - some tricky sections - only played the chart once though, so can't really recall if there's anything omg tough in it
I Got You (I Feel Good) (Live) - not a tough FC if you can bring yourself to listen to it (I'm not a big fan of the original song, but this live version makes baby jesus cry)
Nightmare
In a Big Country - not a fan of the song, but it's definitely FCable
Crosstown Traffic - already FC'd - way too easy for nightmare tier
Du Hast - FC'd
Fly Like an Eage - this one is really tough
The Look - easy FC
Cold as Ice - already FC'd by Krimsun and myself
Smoke on the Water - toughy
This Bastards Life - I have a 100% with one overhit - won't be a problem
Other possible problems:
Dead End Friends - some really tricky parts - but not undoable
Rehab - this song should be final tier in terms of FCing - lots of ghost notes that are a nightmare to hit - it's doable, but man, it's tough!
That's it - by my count, about 5 tough FCs, and the rest should fall pretty quickly - good luck to whoever goes for Roundabout though - that song is insane beast. |

Antibodies actually is tough if you play it properly. It's loleasy if you use 2 hands for the octave alternating notes but that's not how you're meant to play it + prevents proper OD activation. Try playing it 1 handed and FCing it. I'm getting better at it but it is still one of the hardest in game if played 1-handed. |

Playing it two handed is by no means playing it "improperly" - playing with two hands means that OD is a pain to activate, and you also can't "whammy" your OD holds, so it has built in limitations. Saying that playing things two-handed is somehow cheating is akin to saying that tapping on the guitar is cheating. Incidentally, I do play the vast majority of it one handed - I only bring in my left hand when the right hand starts playing chords at the end, since my right hand is too small to play some of those extended chord shapes single handed. |

Haha don't get so defensive :P I never said it was cheating. I do notice they only chart right hand stuff though so I guess at least the piano players/keyboardists who performed the song played them one handed, and also the fact the whammy + OD activator are where your left hand should sit does all point to ne-handed being the "normal" way it's meant to be played. But whatever works for you works and I'm sure even I will need to use 2 hands on some songs as I work my way up the list. But I do think the ones highest on the leaderboards will end up being the 1-handed guys, since they can more easily activate and whammy.
Edit: also my post before was just trying to explan why the song is ranked as being difficult. The difficulty rankings of songs assume you are playing one-handed. Hence why for example in standard mode many songs with BO chords are more difficult, since hitting those with your ring and pinky fingers is quite tough at times. |
