According to a streamer mgz)ptak and ash.Squall are both stream snipers. I do not believe this to be the case.
Still I wonder how prevalent stream sniping is in the foreign SC BW community. I think/thought it does basically not exist.
Then howver I am also not sure how prevalent paranoia is with certain streamers.
It might obviously also be just plain simple stupidity.
But this is upposed to be a serious topic:
Is stream sniping really a thing in SC BW? I thought it barely exists at all.
Any thoughts/opinions from streamers, players playing vs streamers and everyone else?
Please lets ofc try to keep this topic civil.

when you combine small player numbers + high mmr, then long wait times are bound to happen and inevitably players are going to play each other repeatedly.

Who is this streamer & if they're worried about getting stream sniped, why not just y'know... Not stream?
Even if it is an issue, it sounds like there's a simple solution & not stream. I don't see how anyone can really stop someone from stream sniping, just like how you can't stop someone from being an asshole unfortunately, as cynical as it sounds.

The only people I know who accuse others of stream sniping are Artosis and Julia. In this case I assume it's Julia, who has been crying wolf since 2009.

squall is not a stream sniper, this is ridiculous. I am pretty sure that neither is Ptak. Why would you name those 2 without any proof and while yourself acknowledging it is unlikely but not name the streamer who made the (dubious) claim? May be edit your post? That s a gratuitous attack on two well-known players.
At any case, even if everybody and their mother were stream-sniping, it s essentially part of streaming, any streamer should be prepared for it.
Also, as an in-between solution to not streaming at all, why not put a long delay on your stream?

And the streamers put delay on their streams so i can't t see the point of stream sniping and their paranoia about that. End of story.

While this is an interesting topic to discuss, naming two streamers with no proof while withholding the identify of who said they are sniping is not fair to either player. Closing this thread, but feel free to make another if you can keep it general and not point fingers at players without any evidence.
