When you look at the stream tab, you can sort by games. You see StarCraft 2, Dota 2, StarCraft: Brood War, etc.

I think Starbow should have its own category, because some people only play Starbow, and some people are only interested in watching Starbow.

Also, if you want to watch normal StarCraft 2, you probably have no interest in watching Starbow. Either way, they're basically different games, and you should know what you're getting. This isn't just any arcade map for StarCraft 2. It has its own tournaments, its own dedicated players, and so on.

I have to agree with this for selfish reasons. I enjoy watching SC2 and Starbow, but it's difficult to find Starbow streams.

I don't think it would hurt to put this on a trial period and see if it gains some traction.

Considering the mod has gotten major support from community figures (TB) and even sponsored tournaments, I think this is a pretty reasonable suggestion.

My opinion is that there are far too little streamers and viewers in general for it to have its own section.
But I would love TL to have a section for blizzard arcade games.

Smix for example sometimes plays both arcade games and other games such as l4d.
Would be great if I can know if it is a arcade night or not.

Pretty sure TL's streamer list is read directly off of Twitch and Twitch doesn't separate Starcraft Arcade from ladder or tournaments games. Its all just "Starcraft 2 HoTS"

I thought thats why you select what game you are streaming on the website:

Bump. It'd be nice for streamers to have another way to get viewers other than posting in the Starbow thread every time they stream.
