Hi guys! I think arena spectator teams should be delayed until gates are opened atleast. Now spectator mostly used by "gladiators" to check which enemy they got at arena and swap talents and gear. For example there is a dude at blackrock spamming his stream, pretending to be r1 glad, and he always check enemy team with his alt and swap talents with gear, thats pathetic and unfair to play against that.
Especially that hard when you play from icecrown vs blackrock, where they can get every gear possible for nothing. (like warrior swap full expertise gear vs rog/feral)
You can't see the enemy team or any team as spectator before the gates open. I even tried to make addon and i'm using state "Seen" (which is available only when gates open) so it loads the enemy team , its not possible to load enemy team without it.
The only thing must be delayed in the arena is the live action , because there is stealth classes that become visible.
When i go to arena as spectator in wotlk , i can't see any enemy frame until gates open ,
Sure you can record a short video using arena spectator to prove your point.
