I believe it could be great and a whole lot of fun! But of course it needs
to be balanced and not too powerful.

"I think this is a great idea, and we've already discussed this for one of
the tournament modes. It'll probably be implemented once we get all the DDR
modes down, and we have more time to think about tournament options."

Sounds great, I will look forward to try it out!
