Streamer priority is as unethical as p2w. Discuss.

It is an absolute disgrace. I have been talking very highly of GGG since 2013, but now I seriously question if that was deserved at all.

I like how they went out of their way to remove certain ez-mode beast splits that some people were using to print mirrors every league but kept priority queues for high viewership streams. I don't think that every streamer will go out and try to rule the economy, but the simple fact that certain streamers can always corner sections of the market starting on day 1 with GGG's guarantee is just as bad as some of the things they removed for the health of the game in this patch. League start races are also a silly farce as long as this is policy. This event also throws into question whether or not streamers also have enhanced RNG and are thus playing a totally different game from all of us, even before accounting for the fact that they play more than the average player.

Copying from some wise man who said:
stream 2 win get paid to win p2w streamer RNG +higher % rates on everything including crafting worse than diablo 3 auction house With new ARPGs on the horizon, many people will leave and never look back. Diablo 2 ressurected being the biggest upcoming threat. Was #1 on Twitch. People want fairness, equality and justice. They will go where they can get it. |

They will be ok as long as there isnt any better competition, but it will still cost them. As a PR its a disaster.

Looks like some apes are more equal than the others.

You know p2w is at least equal, its unfair, but you can become a part of it and use it and you know in advance what to expect. This time you are just not part of anything and there is nothing you can do, others simply get priority treatment. The funny thing is, it doesnt make sense, if they do this for marketing then players will watch the streamer play the game, install the game (is download even working right now?) try to login and Server dead, disconnect. How is that gonna draw in any new players? :D Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me.

Was always wondering why streamers on day1 have clips of getting multiple exalts from drops in campaign/white maps, when last league my 1st exalt dropped on lvl95. This I see explains things.
