How do you plan on supporting streamers with this format?

Haven't exactly made it a secret that I severely dislike the formatting here; but I might as well try to contribute something more directly constructive. Riot, this question I pose-

If you swap to the Reddit-style; how are you doing to allow new/low-traffic streamers to stand a chance in the new environment?

-You cannot 'bump' Reddit topics.

-Established streams of let's say...30+ regular viewers will easily be able to spam-upvote their favorite stream threads and bury any newcomers.

-Because of these two factors new streamers looking to build an audience both have no way to notify of offline/online status (since most people turn off Twitch notifications these days) and cannot effectively fish for new viewers as even under the 'new' section the topic will swiftly be buried. (If the forums get deleted expect GD-speed topic creation regardless of moderation attempts.)

Right now you're looking at probably the death of casual streaming of League of Legends. New and lower-population streams will likely be swiftly discouraged from attempting to stream due to having their primary source of new viewers shut down with a forum-system to support their topics.

Are you going to give streamers, who aren't lucky enough to be Pros, Featured, or Youtube celebs a chance to shine? Or is that way of doing things going into the bin?

Regardless, thank you for your time.
