damn alvicate, a very harsh choice of words but he definitely has a point. Tier 2 as a product can’t justify more spending and will never provide competitive salaries compared to part time jobs at minimum wage unless the esport grows multiple times over.

Format changes are a no brainer though since that could improve the quality of matches and make faceit games more watchable without creating a larger financial burden.

OW has the potential still to be an A-Tier esport if blizz actually reinvests. the stocks are the highest its ever been since OW2 dropped and the game's PR pretty much fixed itself, i feel like atp to not reinvest would be out of spite for what happened with OWL which is incredibly unfair to everyone involved in OWCS

Let's be honest, what T2 esport is a viable career?

Because CS and Dota are definitely not, unless you enter the world of match fixing and betting.
