      How about: a game mode where the match is unrated for the single highest rated player on each side but not the others, so they could just concentrate on helping and instructing and not worry too much about their own performance or rating hit.

      This would help new players get their rating established and learn the game, could limit it to players below certain number of players / games except for the coaches

        You can already accomplish that by having high rated players be observers in a game.

            isn't it a bit broken if masters can see the whole map as observers?

            Remember: Losing is Fun!

              Phong wasn't using observers, the 'masters' went in as teammates and ctrl+k'd at the start

                      One thing, I like to suggest when we have a new player joining us is to play in decapitation. Losing your acu is less stressful and it allows the new player to play his acu instead of leaving it in his base.
