It’s been over 15 years since Osu have been released.
Over the years, there are a ton of great players.
This includes Cookiez, WubWoofWolf, Rafis, and many others.
However, the leaderboards have changed over time.
The Osu leaderboards currently rank players based on their performance.
Their performance includes their accuracy, play count, SS, S, and A.
However, the terms best and influential are very different.
Influence relies on the impact that the player makes such as introducing people to the game.
On the other hand, the best Osu players are ranked in the leaderboards (who will be included in this list).
Here are the top 25 best Osu players:
