Put Your Audience on the Map with Magic Maps
When you're streaming Team Fortress 2, it's always a blast to know where your audience is tuning in from. Whether they're stationed in some snowy military base or the warmth of their cozy homes, asking them 'Where in the world are you joining us from today?' can start the live chat energy flowing. Magic Maps from StreamAlive lets you take all those locations your viewers shout out and plots them on a real-time map. Imagine streaming a Payload match and having a colorful world map of your audience right beside you—extra impressive when you spot viewer clusters from TF2-loving regions! Get creative with it too: ask them about dream destinations or the location of their epic gaming origins.
Dive Deep with Opinion Polls
Opinion Polls are the way to go if you want detailed feedback on something, like asking your crew about new strategies or their thoughts on TF2 updates.

It keeps the chat active, and more importantly, connects your audience to your live stream narrative.
