Can you add steam integration so the leaderboard has actual identifiers to it, also don't think you need to "verify" each match, I can't imagine anyone is cheating on the site. I won reaper 20-10/20-7/20-5 but its not in there, and once its in there it will be under "guest #613071".
The logs on saw aren't fully fixed, there is splash issues on the logs themselves, though lowering them is definitely better. The bot seems to be aware of the kill saw at all times so never dies to it, meaning its just a hazard for the player. Sometimes the bot gets stuck on the logs on the side of the maps, and sometimes he gets waddles around on the grass on the sides of the raised bit without coming up, so you have to cheese spam him or he will prefire you peaking him.
I think having the bigger maps like warehouse and sawyard are more fun to play than the smaller ones like arcadium, that feels just a little to small for some weapons (like sniper) to be useful but too close so LG is a bit OP. I did cheese the bots a few times, but I don't think this plays like normal MGE with the variety of weapons so its ok.
I think the tryhard mode is still a bit odd as it triggers on some random things. I figured out if I shot at the bot twice with the sniper at the start of the round that was considered tryhard mode. Though, I think you have changed it a bit because the last time I played "tryhard mode" meant the bot would camp high ground with LG. To me the tryhard mode didn't seem to have much impact on the bots behaviour, except a few times it would double headshot me out of nowhere.
It would also be cool if there was more things to strive for. So far if I want to try scoville I do like 3-4 rounds of Reaper, try a couple maps and I'm bored. I think the leaderboard will help, could be cool if this is there is subsections of each map. If there was a way to enable perma tryhard without it swapping off after a few rounds could also be good, or an option to turn it off if people don't want to play vs it. Some badges or awards you could get would be nice. I saw the Road to Reaper thing, but once you have beat the harder bots it just seems tedious to have to play each of those. Running a tournament or cup could also be cool, this could be single player or multiplayer ranked thing, since its fun in either way. Also the stats subsection on the leaderboard page looks a bit poo, if it was centralised or there was some more info that would be good. Maybe some graphics of your best maps / win rate on each map or a match history with scores.
