Wushu World Championship
Aikido is not the only mod deserving of a huge world championship event.
Wushu should get one too!

To avoid blatant running, this event should take place in a dojo or a box (boxshu.tbm)

I recognize that it may seem stupid of me to post such an idea, and maybe even insulting to staff because of the immense amount of work put into the Aikido World Championship, but Wushu sports an entirely different community than Aikido does. I am also not asking for a tourney as large as the Aikido Championship. Prizes would be smaller and just a more casual event.

This would of course be hosted by admins just as the Aikido Championship is/has been.

Currently I do not have much else to add, so feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I support this idea. Wushuers need some love, too.
Hosting it in boxshu might add a new dimension to the whole thing.

aikido is the only mainstream mod right now that is actually fun to watch when played competitively.

Are you kidding me? Wushu matches can get pretty awesome(and they dont take 10 hours to finish), it seems to me that aikido is the more redundant mod....

though wushu isnt really terribly mainstream.
Life is like staring at drying paint. The longer it goes on, the more you want to smash your face in.
@TheGod: Biased much? Wushu needs a whole different skill set than aikido and can get pretty intense when two skilled players play against each other. A wushu tournament sounds interesting and i do agree that there should be a dojo implemented to prevent running.

This coming from the guy who uses one of two openers every match, then proceeds to run and pod.
Wushu is very enjoyable to play and watch if the contenders are playing with intent for a fair match.

You kinda highlighted why the competitive play in wushu aint too fun to watch (hit and proceed to run, run and run). When you speak of wushu, do you mean wushu.tbm, or the brushy-like wushu3.tbm and similar?
Now doing recoloring for people not in the clan as-well, PM for more info!

I agree OMI!!! or maybe rk-mma, lenshu3ng, tk, or any fighting mod rather than a more wrestling oriented mod.

TheGod please understand you are not the only player in the community.

And all the fair-play talk really is irrelevant idk how this convo is still continuing as if no one will ever learn. There is no fair play in competition with vague
rules like 'no running' and such. Put it in a box or a ring and let people play how they want to play. If you think this ruins wushu's integrity then maybe you should just sit out during the competition, or allow people to run without a ring. YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO DAMMIT

Edit: one more thing. wushu needs to fundamentally change for the play style TW and other wushuers enjoy. If you don't understand that then you have another host of issues. Put a ring, change engage distance if you want, but you cannon combat people wanting to win, its just not going to happen. Not now, not ever

With that being said, I still disagree with this ----> "That being my argument about how Team Wushu has made Wushu less competitive, let me tell you how they can move the game forward rather than backwards."

They are not making it less competitive. The idea is (when NOT just complaining about everyone else's play style) Or at least the notion I always got from this portion of the community isn't that we should chastise those who do not follow our guidelines(if u can call it that) but to try and beat the players who play very direct for the win, while retaining your style. This doesn't mean its becoming less competitive it just means we are further challenging our selves to play as the underdog but still come out victorious. I play this way because when I win, and I gave them every opportunity to CB I feel proud of the accomplishment. It makes it more competitive if you allow the 'cheap' moves but still retain these ideas, not less competitive.


I will play my way, you play yours. No hard feelings.

It's impossible to argue that one mod deserves one over the other because all mods have their player base

Wushu is one of the ones deserving of one, probably

The aikido championship thing was all down to hampa and sir and, I suspect, a one off deal

At the moment I would say that there's too much that needs to be fixed and sorted to worry about mod specific championships
She/They

Yeah, I only don't like erthtkv2 because of the mod's name. Make it "tkv2," and the mod will instantly become more popular. This is a valid reason as the name of the mod is still an important feature that no one seems to have yet discussed.
