I assume one facecam and one on the player including keyboard, mouse and monitor (the angle Bee used on twitch after the scandal) but I am not part of the Warlords team so this is just speculation.

Yes it is a correct assumption. Thanks for the catches by the way. Cheating ON would have been smth interesting :D

I don't understand how there is no spectator delay for the main stage?

There is a 2 min spectator delay during qualifiers, then main stage has zero delay. And then player POV streaming is 3 minutes delay.

I don't see the logic here, and no spectator delay is leaving massive gaps and chances for cheating. Would love an explanation for how you can prevent cheating with the current system.

Probably with the second webcam.

 

[TheViper]

How does the second camera deny you from listening to a stream or a friend being on voice or sitting next to you(not visible in camera) telling you everything that is going on?

Probably with the second webcam.

That doesn’t help if there is no stream/spec delay. Even if the player’s computer sound in the headset would be monitored too, you could f.ex hide earbuds within your headset and be given info through voice from your phone or whatnot.

I am pretty sure that the lack of a consistent stream and/or spec delay is a mistake, though, or at least we’ll have to hope they will rethink it if not.

The handbook says that ties are inevitable in the group stage. It also says it's a "swiss format, but can also be described as an expanded version of the GSL system". Maybe I'm being dense but I don't see how it can be both Swiss and GSL, and if it's GSL then I don't see how ties are even possible. How does the group stage work exactly?

Afaik it's the same format as in KotD4 and RBW:Legacy, so more like two groups of 8 players with double elimination.

Hola Viper, we have been working this evening to find if there was any way to delay the cameras and be able to sinc with the stream so we have both cameras and POV delay 2 minutes, and im happy to say that i found a way so we will have 2 min delay also in the game during the main event.

We will change the rules soon.

 

[TheViper]

That's great news.

Rorarimbo mentioned that the 2nd camera was intended to avoid cheating, but now that there is a delay, is it fair to assume the second camera will be unnecessary? If that's not the case, why would it still be required?

Maybe keyboard macro or something like that? Handbook says that all players who qualify for the main event will get additional 50 dollar for camera. Is addtional camera hurting the performance or what is the problem with it?

I suppose its got to do with setting it up. Even setting one webcam is quite the task considering a streamer has their original setup as they are comfortable when streaming - like the positioning and angle of the mic, camera, second monitor, etc etc. And now with the second camera which is intended to show keyboard - mouse, desk area and the vicinity, the question is where would they place it, and also connecting it to their already confusing setup can bring more unnecessary issues.

As long as RiuT doesn't qualify, i don't care for webcams

Nothing like that, I think Cuth was simply implying that RiuT being very handsome makes the camera worth using.

that i couldnt agree more with <3 RiutLove

 

[nimanoe]

Why not have both a 2 min delay and a camera?

I can see why it's a bit of a hassle to set up the camera, but if you're scared of cheating, this seems like one of the best options.
