I am not saying that I value winning over showcasing tori control or other skills, but the game will not givei you any credit for trying to handicap youself and then failing to beat the other opponent, and it will not reward you if you handicap yourself and then beat the opponent either.

again, not saying that this is all MP and SP are made of, but it is their core. you can complicate multiplayer as much as you want, but it will not reward you in any way, and if you feel like it should then maybe you should be playing another game. the only reward you can possibly receive is pride and joy in completing a personal goal.
