3 As a spectator your pings do not get shown to players. So you're free to say whatever as long as it does not violate Section 1 of the CoC ( "be respectful") . Chat wise, you're recommended to stay in Ally or Spectator chat ( both of these are functionally identical for spectators for smaller games. In general you should apply the axiom of "Do I want this to be done to me if I were playing?" -- it's fine if you're helping someone with a bug or problem as long as you don't reveal too much information. Instructing people to do something though is kinda skirting the boundary of "don't impact games" and I don't think it should be done nor do I think spectators should taunt players as it again impacts game state by potentially making players play worse. 3 As a spectator your pings do not get shown to players.
