Alright guys, I decided to make a change to the way the fight style is selected for the QOTH series. The goal is to provide more variety and please the wider fan base. I also want to make things more interesting from the point of view of the fighters.

Each fighter has a specialty (see attached file, Daisy is missing but I will add her soon) but said specialty doesn't play a big role in the actual format so I think a good way to achieve this would be to have either the current queen select the fight format, or have the challenger do it. I'm not sure which is best. I tend to side with the challenger coz I think staying on top should be the hardest thing of all.

By the way, this doesn't guarantee a certain fight style for each match up, if both fighters are wrestling specialist, whoever gets to choose might go for boxing to throw a curves ball or coz one might be better than the other even it they have the same specialty.

As an example, lets say the queen chooses, so Brooke is queen and Tess gets voted in. Brooke might avoid boxing even if it is her specialty coz she knows Tess is the top boxer, while Tess is subpar at the others styles, so Brooke would likely opt to wrestle her.

If we flip it around and Brooke is still queen, Tess gets voted in, but this time the challenger is the one who gets to choose, she would most likely go for boxing.

Seen like this I think challenger gives the most variety coz if Tess is queen and queen chooses, it's almost boxing guaranteed and easier wins, while if Ginger is queen and gets to choose, it's MMA most of the time, while if the challenger chooses she gets to more often than not throw one of them monkey wrench in the works. It also makes it more interesting for people who like to try to figure out what one character would choose and why.

Hey, enough rambling, what do you think?

I like the idea of the challenger choosing the match type as well. It will make it harder for the queen to stay on top but when they do it will make a winning streak even more impressive. Plus more match variety is always a good thing and seems like it would me more fun for you creatively while giving us fans a ton of great options to vote on!

Hehe, yeah I admit it's also better for myself. But I also felt bad for the bunch of people who voted for boxing for months and months without ever getting it.

What? Is it coz Daisy is not on the stats sheet yet? Should happen before the end of the year 😋

My pick went to the challenger choosing the fight style of the match. This might be interesting, mostly for the interactions between the ladies. Besides, there are some ladies who are good on more than one style. Although got to say, I did not mind how most matches were wrestling matches, so far at least.
