Twitch viewers are able to vote on in-game events.

Unlike most BR’s, there are:

  • no weapon rarity or mod systems

  • no unique hero abilities or ultimate attacks

  • no conventional health items or armor.

Weapons can be found, combined, and upgraded.  Abilities rely on the same premise- players can equip up to two at a time. Pacing of the game on engaging and coordinating fights ebb and flow based on a team’s ability to recover and reengage.

The biggest differentiator remains to be the potential interactions between streamers and the game itself both in a competitive and casual setting. The ability to let chat directly dictate/affect in-game actions may add and develop a standing meta.
