Disguised Toast's Valorant team DSG officially has its all-female roster, and they were introduced on social media. Earlier this month, Disguised Toast expressed that he was looking to sign a team for Valorant Game Changers, which is Riot Games' program giving women and non-binary persons a chance to compete in professional leagues.Known as a variety Twitch streamer, Toast gained popularity when he played Among Us during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. He is also part of content creator organization OfflineTV, along with fellow streamers Pokimane, LilyPichu, and more. Recently, Toast has been busy managing his professional Valorant team DSG, which debuted during Valorant Champions Tour (VCT): Challengers last February.Weeks after tweeting out that he was looking to sign a Game Changers team, DSG introduced its all-female roster. It consists of former Immortals player Lydia "Tupperware" Wilson, and streamers Kyedae Shymko, Jodi "QuarterJade" Lee, Sydney "Sydeon" Parker, and Tenzin "TrulyTenzin" Dolkar. Prior to the announcement, many Twitch viewers were already speculating that the players would be forming a team after streaming a coaching session with DSG's Ruin. The team will compete in their first Game Changers match at the open qualifiers happening on April 4.
The announcement garnered mostly positive reactions from many Valorant fans, streamers, and pros, who were all excited to see the DSG Game Changers team compete. One also asked if Kyedae was still part of 100 Thieves after signing with DSG, which another user surmised that she was still with the organization and that this is probably "good PR" as it doesn't have its own Game Changers team.
The DSG Valorant Game Changers team might come as a surprise to some considering that it consists of four streamers competing professionally for the first time. But many Twitch viewers could also argue that they have what it takes after watching them play Valorant for hours, plus, Tupperware could share tips as an experienced pro player. Nonetheless, the team will be streaming their practice sessions throughout the week to give fans a glimpse of how the DSG team will play together. These sessions will also be a great opportunity for them to build rapport and come up with strategies that will work to their advantage.
DSG isn't the only streamer-owned Valorant team that's caught people's attention. YouTube streamer Ludwig Ahgren is also gearing up for Moist Moguls' debut in the next Valorant qualifier, and many fans have been looking forward to it. This trend of streamers forming their own professional teams may not go away soon as it provides more opportunities for new and veteran pro players.
