So I was watching InControl stream, which was hilarious by the way. =)
And Deezer continually sniped the stream. And lost. Also hilarious.
A lot of people say to add a delay, which has the counter-argument of ruining the experience of interaction with fans.
Blizzard could fix this though. I think really easily.
Here's my idea.
Enable an option to never find a certain player while laddering. Like a block feature for ladders. Example. I'm streaming, and one guy keeps attempting to snipe me. So I block him. The search will never match me up with that player in a ladder game now until I unblock him, which I obviously wont be doing while streaming.
If the stream is having this problem with a large number of people, this wouldnt really help because you'd have to block each person individually. But regardless, that was the idea. Isolated cases would dissolve. Which at least helps the situation.
Thoughts?

Well, how could Blizzard prevent people from just blocking people that are better than them?
I like the thought though. Maybe just implement it where you can't be matched up with the same person twice within ~5 games?
|
people would do that so that they didnt have to play good people
|
That wouldn't be a good idea, because then players could block players they don't do well against if their priority is to do well on the ladder.
Sniping is just a downside to streaming, but I really think that you shouldn't be able to play the same person right after you finished a match with them, especially since many people queue immediately after losing, causing them to likely get matched up again.
|
how about just add a 15 minute cooldown after the game that prevents the same two people being matched up?
|
That is so stiupid :D Don't think to much...xD
PPL would block ( with a lot of rage ) players who beat them...
|
silly idea. just make sure the two don't queue to each other after 2 consecutive times
|
iNcontroL fighting !  I love the way he keeps rolling Deezer even tho Deezer is stream cheating
|
I'm just going to say I enjoy rematches and I have no problem with the system, if someone is sniping the likes of Incontrol he can't be that bad, and well if he is, free-wins. If it bothers you that much, don't stream.
I like how it is now, don't change it Blizz.
|
stream sniping is half the fun of sc2
|
Not a good idea, sniping is funny, let it happen. It is not Blizzards place to induct rules because of livestreams from players
|
when you stream your games, you run the risk of people watching them

The problem is he stream cheats and trolls hardcore the whole time, making Incontrol force to play with a HUGE disadvantage, or turn the stream black, losing viewers.

I actually like that idea better.
Not allowing 2 players to be matched with each other within X amount of games. Causes nothing to be needed on the player's behalf. Stream sniping is one thing. But when the streamer is playing against the same person 3, 4, 5 games in a row. It starts to dull the experience. Which is bad for everyone. Regardless of who wins or loses.
|
listen,there's NOTHING WRONG with Rematching, even if they were to be matched up 10000 times consecutively.. What iS wrong about stream sniping is that the sniper is STREAM WATCHING during the games (having 2 monitors or alt tab to see the victim's build order). in essense that is the same as map hacking. THAT'S WRONG
|
Think of the poor cheesers who will never find another game when everyone blocks them!

This seems like a good option. Maybe even longer. Then again, maybe I'm missing something and that wouldn't work.

Thats the problem.. I wouldnt be surprised if there are people who only ladder when other streamers are laddering, trying to snipe the games and have free vision on their 2nd monitor the whole time... and somehow get into GM this way.
streamers are going to have to start hiding their search windows, to avoid being sniped if this becomes a bigger mess

^-^ watchin the same stream right now lolz... idk why should good people suffer from people that are asswholes???
|
If he didn't want it he could add a delay, if you want interaction join the chat, Blizzard won't and shouldn't make a relatively large change to the game just to make streaming "better"(?)
