Chess has less variations than toribash, it also doesnt have the "luck" / "randomness" element given by inputting moves at the same time. It could be seen as more solvable than toribash. However chess is clearly far more competitive and successful than chess and could be put in the same category as esports in that its debated whether it is or isnt a sport, but it is highly competitive regardless.

Chess has not been solved, and does not appear to be solvable with the power of computers that is currently available. Toribash is more complex than chess and could not currently be solved by a computer either.
