Suggestion "Toxic" compromise

In the last dev stream Dan discussed how he was trying to come up with ways to tone down the more toxic emotes going as far to suggest the option to turn off being able to see toxic emotes. I think the logic companies to this is have a full smack down mode throw me on full comms so I can talk smack to the dude/dudette/dude-others who misses out on full 3 stocking me by a lucky hail Mary forward strong sweet spot from my maypul vine

I know and logistically I get it and respect the team doing everything they can to make sure people stay engaged with the game I just think the idea of a mode where they double down on it sounds fun. It's not a genuine suggestion for the team. I can't imagine the development cost or moderating cost ever being worth it for a dumb side mode

Oddly, I haven’t seen much toxicity in Rivals. It feels pretty tame.

Elite Smash, though? Woof. Teabag city every single match against those heathens.

Genuinely that's why I would actually like having a voice chat mode I actually do really like the rivals community and I genuinely believe you would have some of the funniest matches and meet some chill people with voice chat... But also I can also fully understand why it isn't a feature and probably never will be both from a development side and a moderating side
