    Could the top 10 title please be changed?

    Looking at it all compared to Japan,

    There's;

    Rank 1: Leader of the Pack/Feast Champion
    Top 100: Hunter Wolf/Feast Ranker (arguably 'feast ranker' is worse here)

    But for top 10 we get; Beta Wolf/ Feast Slayer

    It's not really as prestigious as 'feast slayer' or 'feast ranker' for that matter.
    We could fit the 'wolf' naming conventions and change it to 'Apex Wolf' or something similar.

    Just 'Beta Wolf' Here seems like you'd be ridiculed more as oppose to anything

    You're obscuring what a beta wolf is with other meanings applied to the word.

    I know.

    But the common interpretation isn't 'second in command' or something akin to that, is it?


    People see it and think 'LOOL BEYTAHHH'.

    Whether it means something different isn't how 99% of people see it.

    Be glad it's not something like Alpha Male Wolf or something stupid like that.

    I think a cool idea would be to have it be the word wolf but in different languages.

    Like imagine having something like Apex Lobo or something. Just to vary it up.

    Feast slayer sounds cooler than being a Beta tbh.

    Most people will interpret the title "Beta Wolf" negatively, especially in America or just in general. A new title like "Feast Slayer" or anything else that doesn't refer to someone being inferior which is how the word "Beta" is thrown around nowadays.

    The actual meaning of beta wolf is the second-in-command. The one most likely to challenge to the alpha and win. The weakest of the pack being the omega.

    The cultural implications of the word, on the other hand, are much less desirable lol, something I thought Koji was on top of.

    Are we going to ignore the fact that the achievement name for Alpha Wolf is Leader of the Pack? Then the achievement name for rank one is Head of the Table?


    These names are wack
