  • Box Duels

    I was just thinking the other day, while chasing someone around the large duel arenas, that we could possibly take 1 or 2 of the duel arenas and turn them into a bunch of small boxes. Of course, this is where we would derive the term "Box duel". The idea would be a very small box, one where you would have no where to go. Possibly an 1/8 of the size of the arenas we have now. I think it would be fun and competitive as it would force close combat. Also, the duels would be very quick. a very tiny box with maybe a few asteroids for fighters and maybe 1 or 2 very small wall bricks. Thoughts?

      i have briefly talked with Tiny in-game and instructed him to come up with at least a rough draft (such as creating a map with duel boxes, writing down warp coordinates) before we try to move forward. we could basically make a copy of the current TWEL website and bots, but we need to make some minor tweaks to the new bots to ensure that they will work flawlessly (setting correct warp coordinates, forcing warp on death and so on) before an official release. your goal is to present a nearly finished product if you want it to happen, we don't have enough hands to spare to help with the maps et cetera.

      mythril can probably help with this by providing his insight as he is the current head of TWEL, and if this gets added and becomes popular we can run seasons with it.

      good luck and have fun.

        Gave me an idea for twd dueling hehe :P Same idea as tiny but for twd.

        Perhaps captains can choose who vs who? (or be randomized) And can swap players. So if Fork is getting hammered by Stayon (box 1).... captains can switch Turban who was dueling Fram (in box 2) to the play for Fork and Fork now duels fram. 1 switch allowed per game?.

              I'm not really a fan of the idea. It could be fun as a UFC event or something and maybe something to play with in the offseason, but during qualifying in a competitive league I don't really see how it's worth implementing.

              I think your idea just stems from the same issue that many javs seem to have with ?go duel, it's too easy for javs to get away and playing more passive gives you a far greater advantage and results in boring, drawn out puss fests in 1v1 jav duels. The map definitely needs to be more open as in every other competitive jav arena like twjd and baseelim.

              I'm open to completely different jav maps if people want to send them in. Could even implement them soon and see how people feel about using the map for the playoffs. I can't see adding smaller maps for this season though. There's no way those maps would be used for playoffs.

              However I have been thinking about the old duel arena from 2001ish (?go #duel) and how fun it was to be able to choose different maps to duel in (No rocks, rocks, weird layouts). There's a lot that can and should be added to TWEL in the future, the league had been untouched for so long that we're still using the same old formulas.
