History of osu! Ukrainian top players (2007-2025)

Data up to April 4th, 2025. Showcase of the changes in the top 25 Ukrainian osu! rankings over time.

Created with custom Python scripts for scraping the leaderboards from Wayback Machine and assembling the data into .csv files and Jannchie's data visualization tool.

IMPORTANT NOTE: There are a lot of large gaps up until around when Cloz1k became #1 UA. I don't know whether there were any country #1s that I missed due to that (I wasn't actively following the scene until 2021) but I know for a fact that I can't definitively say when exactly each one of these players has become #1 UA or was overtaken. This is especially true for pre-country LBs data after Darkeur joined the game in May 2008.

LESS IMPORTANT NOTE: A couple of background vids had to be pitch shifted to avoid region blocks (Kodora's background gameplay and dench's utsuroi 900). Sucks to suck.

Not quite satisfied with the workflow of this project. I will attempt to make it more automated and easy to create, and maybe will make another one of these for some other country.
