✨ New

• /sumo top — win leaderboard
  
• Auto-start — arenas begin on their own once enough players join (forcestart still works)
  
• /sumo setplayers — set per-arena min/max at runtime
  
• Persistent stats now actually count wins, losses and streaks
  

Fixes

• Mobs and stray hits can no longer damage fighters in the lobby or mid-match
  
• Reworked, much cleaner knockback
  
• Match countdown is shown and no longer freezes players
  
• Winner is properly released and the arena frees up after a match
  
• Player inventories are safe on disconnect, leave and server stop
  
• Auto-fitted arena bounds so you can't get ejected on the first hit
  

✅ Compatibility
