## Description

Esports is changing. 

Toast was a streamer with a dream. He wanted to stand on the biggest stages in the world. But he did something no one expected. He rolled into a scene full of former champions and proven talent, and won the whole thing.

But getting there wasn’t easy. Just winning wasn’t enough. Everybody in esports is struggling. And even trying to compete can cost millions of dollars. 

Esports is facing some huge challenges, and streamers are going to become a bigger and bigger part of its future. But can your favorite creators really save esports?
