i like the new rank system that will be implemented soon, bringing back global mod ranks was a good call. cant stress this enough though, me and a fair amount of players have expressed that they would REALLY like for whoever is running the tiktok to add competitive replays from duels/bet servers, as well as replays from newer players, alongside with the sparring and sp replays. the damn tiktok account gets hundreds of thousands of viewers yet barely any of those viewers even bother downloading because all the comments on tiktok be saying that the game is too hard and shit. the tiktoks show the expectation and not the reality of starting toribash. no new player is going to hop on this game and immediately start making UFC/MMA binklawz looking ass replays lol. and nobody is playing even half of the mods that are showcased on there. as a matter of fact, i dont think ive seen ONE tiktok of boxshu or abd being shown and i scrolled through that shit for a good minute or two before making this post. i think there should be like, a top 5 fights or top 5 saves series on tiktok similar to concon's old "top 5 insane fights" videos. maybe make some small tutorials for brand new players that plan on downloading toribash after coming across the tiktok account. would teach stuff like how to stay on your feet and hands, how the disqualification system works, how to utilize each joint, how multiplayer works, etc etc.
tbh i rly lost a lot motivation to play this game competitively due to the lack of a large thriving competitive community. it's always the same 20-30 players that are selfbetting, dueling, and playing competitively and it gets to a point where those players get very boring to play against because you end up being very familiar with their playstyles and almost every game from then on out just becomes some what of a coinflip of who has the best opener, ik im definitely not the only one that feels this way. would be cool to see a surge of new aspiring duelers just waiting to be banked because of tiktok.
edit; should also make a tiktok mentioning the forum because barely anyone knows about it, ive seen multiple players thatve been playing for months say that they didnt even know the forums existed.
