ShotCaller vs Mumble
Commander broadcast functionality without server hosting. Keep your team on Discord while getting Mumble-style voice coordination.
Why guilds are switching from Mumble
Mumble is powerful, but comes with overhead that many gaming communities no longer want to manage.
Server hosting burden
Mumble requires running Murmur on a VPS or dedicated server. That means monthly hosting costs, security updates, and downtime risk.
Player adoption friction
New members need to download Mumble, configure certificates, and learn a separate app. Many players already have Discord open.
Ongoing maintenance
Authentication plugins, Alliance Auth integration, SSL certificates, and backups all need someone technical to maintain.

Built for large-scale coordination
ShotCaller handles the same use cases that made Mumble essential for competitive gaming.
EVE Online Fleet Operations
FC broadcasts to multiple wing channels during CTAs and stratops. No more Mumble server maintenance or Alliance Auth headaches.
Guild Wars 2 WvW
Commander voice reaches all squad channels simultaneously. Your zerg stays coordinated without running a separate Murmur instance.
FFXIV Raid Coordination
Raid leader callouts broadcast to all party channels. Static groups stay on Discord instead of juggling multiple apps.
ARMA & Mil-Sim Operations

Common questions
Common questions from guilds considering the switch from Mumble.
How does ShotCaller compare to Mumble for gaming?
ShotCaller provides voice relay functionality through Discord, allowing commanders to broadcast to multiple channels simultaneously. Unlike Mumble, there is no server to host or maintain - it works directly with your existing Discord server.
Can ShotCaller replace Mumble for EVE Online fleet operations?
Yes. ShotCaller offers similar commander broadcast functionality that EVE fleet commanders need, but runs entirely through Discord. You get the same one-to-many voice broadcast without requiring players to install Mumble or maintain a Mumble server.
Do I need to host a server like Mumble?
No. ShotCaller is a cloud-hosted service that works with Discord. There is no server to set up, configure, or maintain. Just add the bot to your Discord and start coordinating.
Does ShotCaller support Mumble-style channel commander features?
Yes. ShotCaller provides voice relay that broadcasts your voice to multiple Discord channels simultaneously - similar to Mumble channel commander or whisper lists, but integrated directly into Discord.
What about Mumble positional audio for games like Guild Wars 2?
ShotCaller focuses on command coordination rather than positional audio. If your primary need is a shotcaller broadcasting to multiple squad channels, ShotCaller is ideal. For 3D positional audio, Mumble remains unique in that feature.
