Thanks for the good ideas.
To make this release about e-sports like features, I'm thinking of enhancing spectating and commenting.
Imagine someone watches TB for the first few times. What does he need to know to understand the competitive elements.
Image someone commenting a TB game, What stats and info should he have available to make a compelling backstory of the players. For instance, a pro TB player might see when a joint is going to dismember, but a commentator needs to know how close it was.
