I'm hovering around top 100 this season...

what type of consistency / ranking do you think/know pro teams and circuits look for to invite a player

I think you have to place top 100 or 50 at least for a few months straight before anything.

I forget how many points blizzard gives you for what ranks, any rank legend is 1pt

For a team to invite you, you probably have to start placing in tournaments.

hmm do you think consistency in Legend ranking could garner sufficient streams?

I've been considering streaming for a while but have hesitated due to the costs it would take to submit a high quality product. I have the capital to invest

I see there are over a million viewers for hearthstone on twitch but uncertain if majority of the market is already dedicated to certain streamers

You waited a long while to stream hearthstone.

Fairly old game at this point, lot of people used to watching amaz/trump/kripp/etc



Now this doesn't mean new streamers don't pop up here and there, but the fact of the matter is there are plenty of great legend players streams, what makes you different?

People usually just watch someone in the top 5 whenever they go to Twitch.
For a new person it's close to impossible to climb up.

I'm looking at Twitch right now and there are over 5000 views on multiple users who are not currently in the top 100 but have finished in the top 100

Where you place on ladder is not the only factor.

In fact it's a fairly small factor, kripp is fucking awful.
