So basically it's a ranked-servers system that allow a player with a high ranking (100th or less) to freely go and play to every ranked-servers? It's indeed interesting. So, in order to go and play freely to every ranked-servers you have to get a high ranking first.
For players with high ranking they're able to face an opponent with the same skill as them in a ranked-servers within their rank. They also able to play with some others decent ranked players (around 500) to play with when they got bored or want to show his skills and stuff.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
The idea is that first of the month it is an open contest. Everyone fights everyone! Here we start having an approximate idea about who's a good player and who's not. Most of the good players at certain mods will make it into the less than 500 ranked servers. These servers are introduced after the first 10 days of ranking.
Technically, there should be 3 of the <500 ranked servers. Each server will rotate between different type of mods. So one server for example will rotate between striking mods and another rotates between grappling mod. Here we're having first a higher skillcap because of the low-ranked players+ versatility! A good striking player should be good in rk-mma, lenshu3ng, AND wushu.(just an example)
After 20 days, we'll have <250 ranked server where it rotates between ALL the mods. For fairness, each type of mods should be represented by equal numbers. So like..not 20 grappling mods and 2 striking mods.
The best toribash player is the best in his type of mods(say striking or grappling) and is the more versatile..meaning he's competent more or less in the other type! So, competitiveness+versatility.
Got it? I just noticed this is long enough to be a blog entry... What do you guys think? I'd like to hear the GMS say in this!
