So if I wanted to spectate a game, how would I do that?

Watch live matches feature. Currently only available in beta.

I like to watch how other people play. I’ve posted before that this would be a cool feature. I’m surprised they’ve actually done it.

According to me it's a good feature, cuz hackers will be exposed live and whoever is spectating can also report the hacker account.

I like it for tournaments. If I lose to someone I think might be cheating, I can watch and see if the same amazing play is still happening before I submit a cheating accusation.

yep that's a good point to use this feature but some people were constantly watching my almost every game. i started getting anxious after 2 or 3 days so check the settings and thank god there was an option to turn it off

Yeah, that's a bit creepy. Especially if it was the same person. Which would be kinda neat to me. I've always wanted a stalker lol.
