Like the title says, it would be nice to have the ability to include a referee (or a panel of judges) seperate to the playercount.
When you join a PvP game at currently, you have the 3 boxes, two being team choice, if the top box for neutral was divided;
NEUTRAL
--Judges--
areferee
anotherreferee
--Spectators--
arandomspectator
anotherspectator
--Unassigned--
arandomnoob
anunassignedplayer
The judges could then be implemented as 'ghosts', only visible to other judges, untouched by any skill use and unable to use any skills/attacks.
A seperate 'Referees' UI setup no skills/auto attack, match commands - reset match, move player to team, kick/ban etc to assist in moderating a game.
Not quite sure of how it would affect gameplay/ping but with invisible referees there would be no negative side effects to the contenders (I hope - devs feel free to clarify).
EDIT: As well as this, the ability for a player to change sides without rejoining a game would be good. Also a health bar for your target. If possible, a team/score screen would be amazing, if you could view players from both teams, their k/d ratio (for the game in progress) and the ability to inspect them from this screen.
I think for PvP to become really fair, safe spawns should be added, spawning as it is can leave you separated from your team which is can be just as fatal as spawning close to enemies.
Please post constructive replies & suggestions :-)
