One of the biggest reasons fans want Shroud to make his own Esports org is the ongoing trend in the gaming industry. Big names across Twitch and YouTube have either created their own teams or invested in existing Esports orgs.
For instance, CouRage and Valkyrae recently became the co-owners of 100 Thieves. Both the content creators had been a part of the organization for the past few years and have now acquired more important positions. Similarly, former Twitch streamer Dr Disrespect has time and again hinted at having his own team in the Call of Duty League.
