General numberfagging/streaming meta moment
PoE is such a mid viewing experience. It's very fun to play, but can be hard to understand if the viewer doesn't play themselves, not to mention the end game is very bland to watch. The fun of watching a PoE streamer comes from new seasons, either players who push crazy builds like Empy or play HC (Ziz) or HC and suck so you're watching for deaths (Quin). Every new season you have a week or two of good viewership then a cliff. A lot of the grinders throw on edm and just blast maps that viewers just basically use as a radio station with a decent host, only occasionally looking at the second monitor when they get a good drop/die/otherwise yell.
