“I kind of went the opposite direction where I was a part of a content creation group. I think that’s stupid because I already had what these esport orgs want and now I’m picking up the things they don’t want, which is the unprofitable side of esports; which is the esports team itself.”
Slasher also chimed in on the topic, saying that esports orgs have been trying recently to diversify their portfolio by adding content creators. He said some orgs have shuttered entire team divisions just to sign content creators.
