Row Xs: Difference between revisions

== Description ==

Row Xs (also ''Offbeats'') are a common gimmick in Rhythm Doctor. A red X can appear on any beat of a [[Classic Beat|Classic]] row, making the beat silent and encouraging players to count in their head. Row Xs usually don't appear on the first beat, as this would make it unfair to play by audio alone. An exception to this is [[Know You]], which tutorializes its X pattern beforehand. When talking about X patterns, a combination of <code>-</code>s and <code>x</code>s is usually used, for example <code>----xx</code>. Row Xs are not unique to any one character, although special attention is drawn towards [[Logan]] and [[Richard Hugh]] having them. [[Cockatiel]] and [[Owl]] have X patterns commonly associated with them. <code>-x-x-x</code> (effectively 4 beats) and <code>-xx-xx</code> (effectively 3 beats). In the story mode, Row Xs are always used in combination with [[Holds]].
