Ninja and Tfue reveal the biggest dangers of joining an esports organization Ninja – Twitch \/ Tfue – TwitchMega Twitch streamers Turner \u2018Tfue\u2018 Tenney and Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2018 Blevins explain to esports pros that signing to an organization isn\u2019t always what\u2019s best for your career. There\u2019s more money up for grabs than ever before in esports now which means there are many players looking for an organization to sign with. With the emergence of Fortnite Battle Royale as an esport and its ability to be played from the comfort of your own home, there are a lot of reasons a player would want to sign with a team, whether that\u2019s for a salary, exposure, and free gear, but is that the best path? Tfue and Ninja have explained what players should know before signing. Do the negatives outweigh the positives? Tfue says if you are signing to an organization, you need to make sure your team doesn\u2019t take a cut of your Fortnite World Cup earnings. He explained this to Clix, a recent pro who signed with Misfits Gaming. \u201cThey\u2019re not taking any World Cup earnings, are they,\u201d he asked, which Clix confirmed that they are. \u201cYou need to get yourself a lawyer.\u201d The FaZe Clan pro further explained his point, arguing an organization doesn\u2019t do enough for them to deserve a cut of your money. \u201cI don\u2019t care, none of these orgs are doing anything worth the cut they\u2019re taking,\u201d he said. \u201cYou win a fucking $3 million and they take, let\u2019s say 10%, that\u2019s $100,000 on the million. For what, so you can rep their name in-game?\u201d Ninja echoed this sentiment, saying you need to know what you are getting yourself into before you sign with a team, but there are benefits. \u201cAll orgs are different, all orgs take different percentages and different things,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen you\u2019re smaller, an org is almost 100% of the time beneficial for you. If they\u2019re amazing they\u2019ll give you good exposure, verification on Twitter and make some connections within the scene.\u201d On the contrary, there are some things you need to look out for. \u201cSome people get caught with some really terrible contracts where some of their Twitch revenue is taken by the org, their YouTube revenue taken by the org, or half of it, but they\u2019ll offer you a couple thousand dollars a month.\u201d You can catch all of what Ninja and Tfue say in the video below, starting from the beginning. With all of this said, it comes down to you if you want to join an organization, but it\u2019s important to know exactly what you\u2019re getting yourself into.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
