What I suggest is to set up an alternative space (maybe can the mods of this subreddit create a new dedicated subreddit for it) containing the pre/post match discussions.

Then the mods could put a sticky post containing the links toward all of those.

Instead of having half of the top 20 posts being post-match discussions, we would have 1 official mod posts referencing all that stuff.

There are two main reasons why I think that it would be a good idea :

• Formatted and organized presentation : I would like to just be able to click on the mod post and then be able to retrieve instantly all the match related discussions chronologically listed.

• Exposure for other posts : Sometimes some appreciated posts with high upvote ratios don't get a lot of attention because they just got posted at the wrong time, and they get shadowed by the post-match discussions. It can happen both in the "Rising" section and the frontage - in the sense that those remain for a shorter duration in the top of the "rising" section and can be pushed out of the frontpage just as those almost got there, because of all the generic esport discussions posts.

Of course, there is always the possibility to go see the top 25-50 or 50-75 posts pages­ if you want to look up to other things.

But by getting more exposure, some posts could grow into way more interesting developments, as the more attention you get, the more likely it is to get some really good , insightful and enlightening comments.

I really like meta discussions posts or those related to game design or gameplay, providing feedback from players playing in a certain way or enjoying a specific playstyle/ aspect of the game. Not even to commentate on those - but just because I enjoy reading such things. Unfortunately, those don't get much exposure in this subreddit because of all the new stuff that comes up and and get (rightfully) featured in the frontpage. So yeah I think that putting pre-post match discussions in a dedicated space would help a bit in that regard.
