pvp: person versus person combat. one of the most essential parts of swordbattle.io.
but so far, there is no way to tell someone your diffinitive skill in pvp.
if someone were to ask you: “are you good?” what would be your answer? “yes”, “no”, or “kinda” is usually your answer.
but what if there could be something…something that gives you a more clear definition of how good you are, more than just an answer in chat.
introducing, tier testing.
basically, here is my idea:
there would be one main “gamemode” to get tier tested in: warrior vs. warrior, as that is the standard 1v1 evolution as well.
in that, there would be five tiers, one being the best and highest and five being on the more average/low end.
the abbrieviations would be T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5.
but within these tiers, there would be a low and high member of the tier.
for example, if someone were around T3 skill level but on the high end, not quite T4, then they would be in high tier 3, or, HT3. And, subsequently, low tiers would have L in front of their tier for the abbrievation. For example, LT3.
but how would this actually be excecuted? well, certain people would be tier testers. those people would be reasonably experienced, good enough to assign accurate tiers.
the way this would work is that there would be a topic of some sort where people could request to get tier tested. a tier tester will be notified, and then assign a time to get tested. then, they will return your tier in pms once you have been tested.
so, what do you think? should this be a thing?
