In Consideration Making the name filter in the game history functional

[Neo001992]

Can we please change the way the name filter works? Currently it saves all three names from a multiplayer game together as its own unique entry, and in doing so if functionally makes it no different than trying to scroll through the main list of games to find any specific game. Being able to filter for all games with HemoNo or FireArcaneWolf individually or together if both checked at once would be much better than how it works currently of scrolling through the unique combination of three name sets.

Also the scroll functionality of the name filter part of the options is completely nonfunctional and you have to manually drag the scroll bar up and down the list instead of the client recognizing that your mouse is in that area letting your mouse wheel work as expected.

On its own, this filter doesn't strike me as super-important - what is the use case for being able to filter this way? Do you often re-watch game replays of just your friends, or something else?

The use case from my perspective would be making the name filter functional. If I wanted to see a list of games I've played with HemoNo for example, currently I would have to find every 3 player entry where he was an opponent and check each entry, whereas if the name filter only listed individual names I would instead be able to scroll through the name filter and check HemoNo to pull up every game I played with him in it.

It would only function to satisfy the curiosities of each individual seeking to filter games, but that seems worlds better than the filter being essentially nonfunctional in how it currently works. As for the replays I try as hard as possible to never use them unless I missed screenshotting a bug during a live game because scrubbing through multiplayer games is very slow with how replays studder/freeze on certain game actions for no obviously apparent reason.
