    There's a certain problem involving S P A W N C A M P I N G... Not that it affect me too much but it probably drives away newbies which is bad for brawl... Also its just really F***ing annoying to be on the receiving end..
    My idea for fixing this: Death-streaks. When you die, without killing somebody, a certain amount of times in a row you get a "buff–(handicap?) (these apply imminently after you respawn, you do not get to activate them manually)

    Not sure exactly how to balance this perfectly but here's the basic idea/example of what it might look like:
    (2?)34 deaths: resistance I (-20% damage) for 5 seconds after spawn protection wears off and absorption I (2 )
    59 deaths: resistance I (-20% damage) for 10 seconds after spawn protection wears off and absorption III (6 )
    10etc deaths: resistance II (-40% damage) for 15 seconds spawn protection wears off and absorption V (10 )

    Or maybe just: 3+ deaths in a row = resistance II (-40% damage) for 10 second after spawn potection wears off (resistance is instantly removed if you kill somebody) and absorption II (4 )

    Ye... tell me wat u think! :b

    I like the idea of deathstreaks, but doesn't the spawn protection kinda do this at the moment?

    Not really, the spawncamp in 2.0 is kinda intense...
    This idea will mostly affect newer players and make it easier for them to not get brutally massacred in thier own spawn like helpless sheep...

    I barely fall vitctim to this, most of the time the spawn protection is enough to get me out of the loop. But newer players never do so +1.

    Edit: Cool stuff on deviantart BTW keep it up! :stuck_out_tongue:

    Honestly, I agree. New players suffer victim to spawncamping, and that's why my kdr is at a DAMNED 0.77

    I think this would be a good idea and an advantage for the players who have 0.12 KDR, and get spawncamped 90% of the time they play the game.

    +1, and what Yes do I pick?

    I think it is a good idea but I don’t think I will see it added any soon:
    It can be abused with alts or by simply suiciding.

    You need C4 to suicide more than once per minute, so no...

    Some maps have cliffs that you can fall from or you can just rush into the enemy base and get killed instantly.

    I like the potential of the idea, that you want to help the new players but I don’t think this will work out with abusing.

    Spawn camping is a problem but this could be abused. Maybe it could be added just not very op :¬)

    I initially was going to argue against this saying that it could be abused on smaller/open maps, or how flawed it is if a player is just bad and keeps dying until they receive a handicap, but honestly it's not that big of a deal. I just can't find anything worth debating about here. If a player is doing poorly or is being spawncamped, what's wrong with a little burst of power from the underdogs, yeah? Gives the bad/new players a chance to compete on the same level as the better players for a little bit.

    If this is added I can see tons of players complaining about it being unfair, when in reality they're just upset it ruined their score. We're going to get "debuff deathstreaks" in no time, just like with the MG4, even though the MG4 and deathstreaks accomplish the same concept of allowing worse players to kill the better players.

    I agree with this suggestion, and am ready for the pointless flame responses to my second paragraph.

    I'm completely serious, I voted yes. +1
