Ranking Season One
Hello there!
Today we announce the new seasonal ranking system for Toribash.
- No more monthly rank resets.
The first season is going to last for 3 months and will end on July 10th, 2017. No resets until then, even if you stay inactive for a few weeks and then come back.
- No more public ranked rooms.
We all know the old ranking was a farm fest with some of the top players only fighting their friends who would lose on purpose. This would no longer be possible. All the public ranked rooms have been removed.
- No more daily rank 1 rewards.
You spend half the day playing, get rank 1 and already dream of buying that new 3D item but then you login the next day and know that some Russian stole your prize because he played a bit more when it was the right time. Sounds bad, right? That's why we have removed the daily rewards - instead, the best players will get their prizes when the season is over.
- The new matchmaking.
With the new system, the only way to rank up is to use the ranked mode in Matchmaking. We have made some significant updates to it in Toribash 5.12 thanks to your feedback.
We tried our best to both reduce the waiting time and make sure players can't select their opponents - and that's the why ranked matchmaking is used for the new ranking. When it's peak time, you no longer have to wait in a queue; once there is someone else willing to play, you will be instantly put in a fight. More than two players searching at once? The system will pick a better opponent for you to fight based on your rank.
- Brown belt restriction.
Sorry beginners, but ranked fights are for those who can stay on their feet for more than 50 frames.
- Automatic mod choice.
Unlike unranked matchmaking, you cannot choose what mods to play with ranked. If you aim for the top, you've got to be the best at everything, be it aikido or wushu. Ranked matchmaking is using 3 mods from different mod groups, and we will rotate them each month. April mods are as classic as they can be: aikidobigdojo.tbm, lenshu3ng.tbm and taekkyon.tbm.
- Best of 5 duels.
To ensure the matchmaking session isn't luck-based, ranked fights are first-to-three duels. Accidentally lost an arm in a kicking mod and grappling mods aren't your strongest side? You still have a striking mod left which can give you a second chance at kicking.
Top 100 players will be rewarded at the end of the season
- Rank #1: 500.000 Toricredits, Pure + Demon Pack, unique 3D item.
- Rank #2: 400.000 Toricredits, Magma + Azurite Pack, limited edition 3D item.
- Rank #3: 300.000 Toricredits, Tesla + Boreal Pack, limited edition 3D item.
- Ranks #4-10: 100.000 Toricredits, limited edition 3D item.
- Ranks #11-100: limited edition 3D item.
July 1st update: ranking data has been restored, the new season end date is July 10th, 2017.
Matchmaking boosters stay active until the end of this season.

"the new stuff"
also known as the things no one wants at all...
- no one plays matchmaking so its practically impossible to rank up.
- if you do get in matchmaking most of the time its with a friend and you would rank up easy.
- matchmaking is a good concept for a game that isn't toribash but its trash here considering how few people play the game now.
- half the people with a good rank now adays are so far ahead because they farm off friends that even if they are trash they wont get passed.
Might just be me but to be honest this is an even worst idea because those people who farm off friends will have more time to stay ahead and farm up more. We might as well go back the the oldest ranking system because people would probably like that 10 times more even though it wasn't the best. You are very innovative but you are in the wrong place for this stuff, you need a bigger game that have people to actually do these things.
(if you want people to play it more and actually do things like this make it worth something because those prizes are complete garbage)

Hecate: You dont even play ranked matchmaking LUL
Every server still has that motd that talks about the lottery that ended weeks ago.
If you're saying that its impossible to find a match in ranked mm, look at me and Shmevin, we almost played a thousand games in matchmaking :^)

Toribash Season 1 Rank 3 | Ex-ES Artist | Ex-Mascot of [Alpha]
CLAN LEAGUE WINNER - 2019, 2025
can confirm, i have played 200 matches within 2 days, never had to wait longer than 5-10 minutes, no matter what time it was.
tho only downside is that you get matched with whoever is there, which can happen to be someone way higher rank than yourself
