Crazy? Hell yeah I bet.

Wow. Reading through this was fascinating. I went inactive spring '13 and I do remember some of this bubbling up, those hold all dueler power kick types (whom I have no issues with, all the same to me) would prod about the playstyle now and then, but I definitely left before the meat of that debacle.

Ho-ly shit that escalated.

Someone (maybe you Kane?) gave me a short explanation of box mushu when I came back, because I was confused as hell, that it was made to make fun of wushu.... but god damn that's wild.

Thanks for the story!

I don't see why they didn't just make a box wu mod, or why that isn't common now. I remember one with a real big dojo that was pretty fun. Well I think that was wushu? Long time ago.

But more importantly than mushu, the box. Bavaros has a wushu small sphere mod that's ostensibly a fast-paced cb trainer, but is a good example of why mid size box mods work.

If someone runs, yes that is a valid form of play, but a box brings the aggressor's tactics into play too. I can attempt to predict your movements (just like many competitive mods) to cut you off, catch you. Level playing field again. Compromise.

I actually make fun of mushu boxshu by running, on the few occasions I play it. Learned that one from Bav.

Oh yeah, and these days high dans don't know the acronym: cb. What a world, what a tori-world.
