Disguised Toast explains why he no longer wants his viewers to subscribe Popular Twitch streamer and Offline TV crew member Jeremy \u2018Disguised Toast\u2019 Wang surprised his audience November 7 by legitimately dissuading his viewers from subscribing to his channel. Broadcasters typically rely on both donations and subscribers to grow their Twitch channels, but it seems like Toast is doing away with both of them. Fans will remember that the streamer turned off donations back in August, which in itself meant that a huge revenue stream was cut off. But the successful Hearthstone players and content creator is now upping the ante by encouraging his faithful followers to simply enjoy his content without the pressure of putting money down. In a November 7 tweet, Toast announced the next part of his benevolent Twitch plan that involves his audience making other streamers happy with subs. \u201cAfter turning off donations on my stream, I\u2019m going to ask all my viewers to not Subscribe and instead use that $5 and sub to a smaller streamer instead,\u201d Disguised Toast said, noting that views to his stream is more than enough compensation as far as he\u2019s concerned. \u201c\u2026 Go make someone\u2019s day with that sub! After turning off donations on my stream, I’m going to ask all my viewers to not Subscribe and instead use that $5 and sub to a smaller streamer instead. When you’re watching the stream, you’re already giving tons of support so thank you. Go make someone’s day with that sub! \u2014 Disguised Toast (@DisguisedToast) November 7, 2019 Of course, there are portions of his loyal audience who won\u2019t easily give in to the streamer\u2019s request \u2013 especially since there are year-long+ sub streaks at risk for many of his viewers. With that said, people will notice that the actual sub button on Toast\u2019s stream will still be present and clickable. Although there\u2019s nothing he can do about that, he instead wants to rely on taking money from \u201cbig companies\u201d from here on out. \u201cI can\u2019t turn off my sub button,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I don\u2019t need your money anymore\u2026 I\u2019ve always said this, I love taking money from big companies like Blizzard, Twitch, YouTube and Riot, they got money. I\u2019ll take money from them.\u201d Toast will continue that venture by participating in the $300,000 Hearthstone Battlegrounds Tournament. Gonna be playing in the $300,000 Hearthstone Battlegrounds Tournament against some scrubs.
