If you ever feed the machine with my voice, image or likeness, you'd better hold on to what it gives you because that will be the last time you hear or see me.
In short, there are too many ways to turn a very heated competitive mode into a brutal shenanigan festival where trying to decide your destiny will lead to your downfall more often than not. I think if Legends Cup comes back later, it needs to have some restrictions on the gameplay to make it good.

The elephant in the room for this game is the powerful item paradigm. It's why the top two builds are so good and I think if they keep tinkering around the edges, SEGA will create more problems than they solve. That being said, we are going to need some more challenging courses for this mode, too.

Gameplay relief could take the form of: tweaked item behavior, tweaked item roll rate, gadget adjustments, course roll rates, etc. There are lots of ways to tackle the inconsistencies of CrossWorlds play, but I think this mode has a very low amount of competitive integrity out of the box.

I think CrossWorlds is great as a fun racing game and I think it's okay as a sweaty competitive game. What I think the Legends Cup did, however, was make the point scoring system insufferably brutal while offering no relief on the gameplay side! Something had to give here, but the giving never gave.
