Removing losses makes sparring stats about as useful to show whos good as tower time is at telling which guilds are strong.

Rank: Gold Wins: 4003 Tiers will show who is strong. Losses don't have to be removed, but I feel like it would be better to do that, since they are a pointless stat. Lots of good people have ratios that don't compare to their skill. Then there are the selective sparrers, who definetely don't compare to their 3:1/5:1 stats. |

I feel like losses should be removed. Sparring isn't as fun because you always need to make sure you're not screwing up your stats. It's def not the first thing in my mind, but the thought that by sparring better players I am screwing up my stats is always In the back of my head.

Half of my friends on graal don't like sparring because they have a bad ratio and don't want to mess it up even more. This stops people from wanting to spar, making the community pretty small in comparison to pkers and towerers.

I agree that losses should be removed too. I always see people stop sparring because scared of messing up their spar record/ratio. The selective sparrers are here anyway because they are afraid of having a bad spar record so they decided to be selective. and that "will you be my boyfriend" lol |

Maybe we should have an opinion to reset the spars, like with every other server. I only have 500 wins atm, so it honestly wouldn't be that hard to get it back lol |

I only don't like this idea because you keep shoving it down our throats every thread.

I honestly worked my ass off for this 10k win count, If I wasn't horrible early on I could of easily gone 10k-2k but tbh I don't care that I have 10000 wins and 4280 losses, it shows my experience and that I've been sparring for a long time.

people who try to not **** up their stats are trying to hide the fact that there is someone better than them its only natural that you can lose too |

Losses can be counted as a story. Even if it is a mere number it has a significance. Especially if at one point there comes to be betting on GSTs (unlikely but possible). I'm all about "legacies" and being remembered for doing something. If someone's losses count as part of their legacy on iClassic, I certainly wouldn't like that. On topic: Holy crap you are a genius. Why is this not a thing? I'm not big on the sparring but I would love to see this implemented. I'm fairly "new" to sparring and the trouble I have is finding an equal match or even semi-equal. I try to keep on fighting whoever it is but they are just too skilled. I have no way to practice (If practicing is even a thing I can do, I'll be lucky if I'll get 100 wins in the next four years) if I don't have someone who I'm on an equal ground with. This system should help protect people like me who are simply boosted off of. As for implementation, it may not be as simple as it seems to do. But I could see it working similar to how queue events work. Perhaps even a building you can queue in? But, hey, beta testing is a thing soonish. So it could happen! A bit off topic again: Aguzo is very innovative, I would highly suggest picking him for beta testing. That is if Aguzo signed up for it. |

Yeah. If you are unskilled/new, the system would match you against people in same tiers, and you wouldn't have a hard time getting some wins against other new players, and at the same time learning how to get better at spar, and moving around. Thanks, hopefully. |
