It literally streams the game (like using the ingame overlay, which is available in 99% of games).
It's an online version of the In-Home Streaming system, except viewers can't send input.
That and it has viewer chat.

Seems a little strange that after implementing CS:GO's system of showing you live Twitch streams and Twitch showing a player's competitive rank if they're streaming CS:GO, that they go and basically go "fuck you twitch" and start making a service to try and destroy Twitch.

The best thing about this? Non-Steam games can be streamed as well (I assume seen as you can play non-steam games over In-Home Streaming), so Steam could potentially make Twitch completely defunct.

I could if I wanted to go and set up use one of my Lua programs to force my desktop to be recorded when I'm not even actually playing a game.
Or I could have capture-card software set to be a non-Steam game, allowing for any console to be streamed through Steam.

I'm going to post on the JPad nerf issue on GitHub a complete list of all changes to CTF/AvD/IvD default maps caused by the JPad giving you 3/4th the speed it used to (and the height difference).
