Disguised Toast opens up on starting an esports team despite the industry facing a slump
The streamer tackled some of the interesting questions posed to him on the recent Wisemen podcast. Co-host Slasher asked the streamer for his opinions on entering the esports scene when the industry is going through a relative recession. He added:
"Why did you even decide to start doing all these?"
In response, the 31-year-old stated:
"I don't know, I really like gaming in general. The Tier two scene must be like popping, right? and I think a lot of esports org aren't just yet and some are and it wouldn't be crazy for me willing to take that risk with my small capital to field a really good team, like for relatively cheap. I say relatively cause it's still ultimately pretty expensive."
