Stream War

Stream War runs on your Twitch stream, where viewers take part in battles between a red AI squad and a blue one. Viewers can join the fight under their own names, influence matches and compete for points and a place in the rankings.

Battle modes

The game has two modes: Prediction Battle and Deathmatch. In Prediction Battle, viewers use Twitch Predictions to bet Channel Points on which squad will win. Twitch pays out winning bets, while a draw returns every bet. When a match ends, the payouts are made and the next prediction begins. Channel Point predictions are available on Twitch Affiliate and Partner channels; on other channels, the match plays without bets.

Squad sizes range from 1v1 to 8v8, with 3v3 as the default. Melee units hold the front line while archers, riflemen and snipers stay back. Battles take place on Riverside Woods, Crossroads, Fountain Park, City Hall and Meadow. As a match progresses, a ring closes in, and lightning, bombs and meteors mark the ground before striking.

Join the fight

Viewers type !join and a unit number in chat to fight under their own names. There are 8 unit types, and the player cap can be set in the tens of thousands, depending on the PC running the stream. Viewers can spend in-game points to spawn a fighter for Team 1 or Team 2, and use !bomb to drop a bomb or !cam to switch the camera during a fight.

Chat on the losing side can call a lightning strike, bomb or meteor onto the leading ace, up to twice per match. The caller’s name appears over the target. While a prediction is open, only viewers who bet on the losing side can make this call.

Rankings and camera

Switch to Follow Cam to stay close to a single fighter. Wins and kills count toward the ranking, and the winning side earns points and climbs it. The last one standing wins.
