"Air Drops” During Raids! (Or anytime) - (Revisited)
What if @twitch communities could “Air Drop” Bits, Gift Subs, Donations etc. during a raid?
A Streamer starts a raid & a timer begins & the viewers from the channel raiding “Fill the Air Drop” (A Crate/Giftbox etc.) & AFTER the raid begins but BEFORE the support drops, Twitch sends an alert to the top of the chat of channel being raided indicating ”Air Drop Incoming!” w/ a countdown timer & pic/gif of the Crate/Giftbox w/ a parachute attached to it & when the countdown hits 0, ALL that support drops into the chat of the (small 🥺) channel being raided.
You could even add effects going off in the chat (The raiders channels' personal channel emotes, Fireworks etc..) & when the support finally drops it would show who supported, what kind of support they gave (bits, gifted subs, donations etc..) and how much support directly in the chat of the channel that is being raided.
Just imagine a small streamer alone with no one or just a couple of people watching. You’ve seen how excited smaller streamers get when they are raided. Now imagine an explosion & flurry of support that drops in their chat as they are being raided!? So many tears will come from this idea but they will be tears of joy!
There will be so many amazing reactions you see from raids with "Air Drops" and the communities that were generous enough to support would be able to see it all in real time! Twitch would be happy, small streamers would be happy, and communities/viewers would be engaging/interactive and entertained. It's a win/win with 0 downsides.
Let’s help millions of smaller streamers. (Cause even though this idea would DEFINITELY help everyone, I came up with it with smaller streamers in mind!) #bladesideas
I also tweeted this out. @InventorBLADES on twitter. Let me know your thoughts on here or there and vote and share, share, share! 🗳
P.S. I should mention as with all my ideas, this should absolutely be optional for the streamer and have these choices available in settings:
“Allow air drops during raids”
“Do not allow air drops during raids”
“Prompt me to either air drop or not during the start of each raid”

Here you go CEO. A green diamond that you employ people to come up with in fancy cubicles, for free. I know I'd subscribe and donate to many more channels if this was integrated. #bladesideas

This idea can even be announced so after the initial raid but before the support drops Twitch places an alert on the top of the chat of the channel being raided stating “Air Drop Incoming” with a countdown timer (10 to 20 seconds) and a pic or gif of the Air drop/crate/giftbox with a parachute and when the countdown hits 0, all the support drops in the chat.

The ideas and concepts that InventorBLADES comes up with is honestly brilliant. This one has to be the BEST one I've ever seen him produce to date, and I've seen him come with some solid designs. InventorBLADES has always been about supporting small community streamers, helping grow their viewership and revenue with little to no help from anybody. And this concept covers both of those things.
Bring "Air Drops" to 2022 Twitch!
