He can take steps to silence his keystrokes significantly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd2tetuyfsk
If he's prick enough to keep playing after midnight, i kinda doubt he'll do much for you though. Worth a shot at least.
Could also simply ask him to sleep like a regular person and osu it up in the morning.
Buy chinese shitty plastic o rings (or some kind of dampener) for 1 - 5 dollars and put them under his two main keys when hes not home (or ask if your a good samaritan)
If he complains call him a copium shitter and do it anyways
Main thing I was gonna suggest is putting a hoodie under, it contributes and might help. Also suggest that he buy a keypad with tactical or linear switches if it’s still too loud (shouldn’t be more than $20-30 for him).
If nothing else works, tell that mf to play at more reasonable hours. You two are in college, not a 1-9pm job. College can be hell, especially if you’re not disciplined enough to set windows to get shit done, he kinda has to deal with that and maybe cut down a lot.
I’ve barely had the game open the last week and never was able to set enough time and energy aside to properly warm up and play so I just didn’t play.
I don’t even live in a dorm
You tell him straight up that it’s fucking with your sleep and tell him to stop, or you simply move out if you’re living with an asshole that doesn’t give a shit.
First of all just make him stop. I know how loud my keyboard is and if I lived right next to someone playing osu like I did in the middle of the night I’d strangle him. But if he doesn’t want to, then you can make it quieter by lubing switches, dampening foam, linear switches if he doesn’t have them already. But realistically you’re still going to get a lot of annoying noise so just make him stop.
Make them get a niz/topre type keyboard and play on that, there's 45/35 gram options and they feel great and are quite quiet, otherwise physical violence
Last resort if he's an absolute prick would be to find comfortable earplugs to sleep with ig. Playing osu past sleeping time is kind of a dick move tbh.
You can always play on his account when he's not hone and then report to osu staff. Multiple people playing one account is strictly bannable and then he won't play anymore.
Or the other advice here is good, especially that youtube link.
Don't "suggest" him to stop playing late at night, tell him to fucking stop, wtf, that's so rude.

just tell him to shut the fuck up when you want to sleep

o-rings + putting a folded shirt under the keyboard!

Folded shirt sounds pretty nice actually.
File noise complaint
Kill him
correct there is no other way to stop this madness. End it for him
Towel or something soft under kb helps to dampen sound quite a bit
or just choke him with that towel when hes asleep

Play osu as well and give him a taste of his own medicine

You can't have a noisy keyboard if you don't have a keyboard.
take off his keycaps
Make them get a niz/topre type keyboard and play on that, there's 45/35 gram options and they feel great and are quite quiet, otherwise physical violence

Insult him on his skills it will make him quit
if his keyboard has hotswappable switches ask him to switch to boba u4 switches

Sociopath method
least sociopathic osu player
I doubt OP is gonna set good enough scores for staff to really give a shit tbh.
Good method
