There are many reasons why the single spar tournament won't take place such as:

• There are other priorities in the developers perspective view like events, hat shop updates, NGS (Probably won't be released anywhere in 2018) Etc.
• The GP team is going to be needed to host such event that is similar to the GST. I think the GP team itself has other priorities too, specially when they of lack staff members in the team. However, if the single spar tournament is going to take place every 3 month like the GST then it shouldn't really effect the GP team.
• If they do make a single spar tournament, you're going to have people asking for a bug catching tournament, you're going to have people asking for a loot catching tournament, you're going to have people asking for a BK tournament etc. So it will be kinda unfair, not mentioning what would the towering community do if such an update take place lol.

not really
would be literally impossible for a negative sparrer to reach #1 unless they sparred an inhumane amount of hours for 90 days straight

it should be heavily reflective of activity anyway
worth noting that the original pitch of this leaderboard included losing points for losses, but the community is too soft and fickle for that

Dark everyone in the battle arena knows you have sideroomed your entire stats
even idiots like Saber Alumba knows it

Man Rusix talking about #1 would most likely won as if Kaios would’ve won had there been an SST last season ._.

Rusix was the best sparrer from 2010, I think he knows what he's talking about buddy

You animal

I wasn't even around in 2010, Wish I was. But I wasn't really the best sparrer either, being 2012 to now. Offensive players always give me more struggle than defensive ones.

Not particularly Kaios, referring more to this season being Alexx, although I think Kaios could do fairly ok in a SST. And nothing against Kaios but he doesn't seem to do well against a large diversity of people. Alexx on other hand does have a good diversity in what he can be capable of when dealing with sparrers on a 1v1 term

Lol 90% of the community thinks you have some mentally related problems even though you don’t. I don’t think you can call anyone an idiot

What the hell? After what you just said everyone can call you an idiot lol

Id come back to classic for a 5v5 Ctf tournament hosted every year x.x ive always loved ctf on graal on any server just wish it wasnt a event and actually an activity for gangs to face each other in plus its more fun then gang spar lol

good addition to a thread about implementing a monthly SST

There's enough room for them both in that category

This isn't the Star-Spangled Tournament?

You are an idiot

The room must be big because your mom is here too

you're onto something

It is horrible that I always have to clean up the verbal mess caused by those embittered, pseudo-selfironic OGs who think they're floating in higher spheres. That was not my intention when I registered for those forums and frankly I'll have to retire my account if there is no light at the end of the tunnel very soon. I will try to put two major points into a very simple scheme.

1)
A method to figure out a 'best' sparrer does not exist.
Reason: The quality of a player is represented by a mixture of performance and result. A spar win cannot be respected if it is achieved in a spar that falls below a certain quality. The quality of a spar depends on factors such as lag, delay, the players' shape, the way they spar and more. Every player has a different interpretation of which factors out of those that I listed are valid. (The same argumentation, expanded by several more factors, obviously counts for the GST too.)

2)
Events of that nature are meaningless in general.
Reason: Events like the GST (and the hypothetical SST) are being introduced to Graal to make players keep track to it. You need to understand that it is not the case, like many seem to believe, that events of that nature are the only thing that keeps Graal worth playing. In reality, it is the opposite. Remind yourselves that Spar is nothing more than a 'PK game', a special situation with - in theory - two players fighting each other under exact same circumstances. The spirit of fighting, the thought of training hard to become the player who is MOST LIKELY to win ANY spar, that is the fuel for every true sparrer. Everybody who cries for events and rewards is a wannabe-analyst who does not understand how valuable the institution 'Spar' is.

That is just the status quo, not even an accusation. I want to help all of you who represent this kind of belief and make you understand that prize-based events like that do not only not make Graal better, they make it worse.

Conclusion:
Spar is the essence of Graal and holy because it is a pure 1vs1 situation. Graal having an official 'best sparrer' would ruin everything because EVERY win in any spar from that point would be referred and compared to that player.
