ExcellentDuels (Exduels) is a lightweight and modular plugin which allows you to create your own practice server. In the plugin not every feature is built-in but rather you need to use an addon (e.g Parties support for ExcellentDuels [COMING SOON]) this is beacuse to keep the plugin lightweight and not packed with features that some people don't need.
