Shootboxing (Rev 8)
Original concept made by Sushiroll with the dojo designed by mainland.
shootboxing8.tbm is a competitive MMA/MAS mod loosely based off of the real world shoot boxing sport in Japan.
In the real world you score points by landing strikes and take downs in a boxing ring.
In this mod we got rid of the ring ropes and made a balanced mod that tests your skills in footwork, striking, and grappling.
Note that the Toris start on a 5 degree incline. This will help new players learn to walk forward instead of falling backwards.
Because everything above the knee will DQ upon touching down inside the dojo - you must practice good balance in your striking or you can be countered with a takedown from your opponent and lose.
This makes it a good transition mod into MMA for aikido players because of the familiar DQ element which gives an advantage to experienced grapplers.
The mod is a good transition for xspar and RTB players as well because they can sharpen their flow and striking skills within the balance constraints of this mod.
The points system is designed to reward more points for striking critical targets similar to combat sports:
The '1's in each point award are intended to count each kind of strike to better understand what was scored in a match.
So if a fight ends with the final scoring being 14123 - you know that there was 1 head strike, 2 body shots and 3 leg kicks/upperbody shots scored.
Hopefully this mod will inspire more competitive realism in Toribash and serve the community well. I also hope to see this mod used in future auto-tourneys, clan wars, and events.
