With over 7.7 million followers in 2021, Pokimane is not only one of the top female streamers on Twitch but is also one of the faces of the popular live content website. Despite many of her peers running to sign with an esports org though, the OfflineTV star revealed why she won\u2019t be joining another team anytime soon, if at all. Pokimane on why she won\u2019t sign with an esports org In a stream highlight video posted to her YouTube channel on April 28, Anys addressed the topic of her ever signing with an esports organization after a fan asked her if she had any plans to join a team in the future. \u201cNo. For years and years I have been offered plenty of times. Plenty of teams. But I\u2019m on OTV. And you know, we created OfflineTV and I feel like if I joined a team, it kind of diluted my brand and it diluted the OTV brand,\u201d the Morocco-Canadian explained. She then added that there would be too many obligations: \u201cThat\u2019s a lot of deliverables. I would feel like I\u2019m spreading myself too thin, you know? I\u2019d rather if I\u2019m gonna devote myself to something, do it one-hundred percent. Whereas if I\u2019m a little OTV, a little bit whatever org, it\u2019s like you\u2019re not fully anything.\u201d When asked if OfflineTV had any plans to expand with spinoff content groups like the Hype House, the popular streamer had an interesting explanation for why that wouldn\u2019t necessarily be beneficial to her or her partners. \u201cIt is something we have considered. OTV branches in regions. OTV Texas, OTV Canada. Could be interesting. But what is the structure? What is the benefit, what is the liability?\u201d she said. Pokimane also pointed out that OfflineTV is \u201cnot just an org\u201d and that people associate the brand with members such as herself, Michael Reeves, and Disguised Toast.

Interestingly, this isn\u2019t the first time Anys has given a deep dive into the business side of streaming.
