So if I beat Comet the #1 ranked legendary player by .5 I would get the same amount of points as if I would beat Fulgore

the #100 ranked legendary player by .5? If so, how does that reflect skills with the points you receive?

Honestly, it would all depend on how many sparrers there are. I'm pretty sure fulgore and comet are closely matched so yes, I believe you should get the same score. Unless fulgore was in diamond, then you would divide what you would get from comet by 2.

Note/FYI: Miraculously a spar related thread managed to stay on-topic without any flamewars, so if you want it to stay like that I suggest you drop the smartassm attitude by trying to make it look as if people on this thread are stupid. Well MBK is, but he's just a cheerleader

Sorry, if I made you feel stupid. I am just lacking rest, and was impatient in having to keep repeating myself due to having a long op, after so many edits, and being mad that I couldn't sleep otherwise I would have the same problem again at night. Hopefully we can all come to an agreement, and at least learn to disagree by having real reasons, besides dev teams dedication, and or lack of sparrers (which there are enough based on the tier list which only put what I have seen)

hey guys this is my first post and I hope this can be somewhat relevant to this thread

I think spar leaderboards should be taken out completely, and instead:

I think that in order to make sparring more meaningful we need to have single spar tournaments like GST. It shows who are the best based on how well they do and it creates more popularity and relevance to spar. and you don't have to basically no life the game in order to succeed, for example many skilled inactive sparrers who come back right at GST are still able to perform at a high quality.
This probably won't solve the consistency of sparring, but it will definitely lure in more players around the times they happen.

This isn't really a spar system but our end goal is to help the sparring community so I wanted to share this

Thank you for posting that. I have already thought about this before, but the problem is you need a ranking system to have a tournament. Otherwise, you won't have a good show to watch between the best of the best currently.

Taking it out would also give no purpose to spar. Pretty much just wasting time raising your wins, and the only thing that would matter is ratio (which can be fake by selective sparring).
