Figuring out what you want to do in life is difficult. But even if you manage it, figuring out how can be even harder.
Pretty early on, Jeremy Wang - today known as Disguised Toast - knew that he wanted to be an entertainer. He learned magic, he made a video game, and eventually turned to content creation.
Toast became the masked mad scientist at the top of the Hearthtone streaming world, but after a dramatic face reveal, leaving his original game behind, and even founded his own esports team.
Disguised Toast has never shied away from a challenge, and this is the story of how he's taken risk after risk to get where he is today.

The man fooled the world into thinking he was goofy nerd, but then he took off the mask, and we found out he was a _handsome_ goofy nerd.
the most handsome goofy Nerd, there are other Handsome Goofy nerds but non come close to Toast
nah he's just a goofy nerd lol
Especially recently, dude glowed up like crazy
Real Shit
What
The thing I loved about the whole squad of Offline is that they put their heart in their work. Also they support the esports scene that much. DSG didn't make it into tier 1, but they sure had a good tournament overall. Hopefully, they'll win it next time.
there is no dsg anymore good tournament ? they lost every match
@@souvikdey2655 their valorant team not the League one.
@@DKtrek21 oh bro sorry I thought valorant because u said teir 1
I love Toast, ever since he was just starting in Hearthstone.
Hearthstone had Krip and Kolento, but no one was ready for Toast.
@@frap12709the only person ready for Toast is Toast. Mostly. Sometimes, I question even that, but it only adds to the enjoyment!
So true. If there's one thing we can count on- it's that toast doesn't do things half heartedly. When he's commited to something- he leaves no stone unturned and gives it his all. If there's anyone who could find a solution for the Esports scene- it's him.
I wish Toast success for the future and grateful for him helping out talented gamers within his own way.
I think, slightly possible, this video may, just maaaay, be sponsored by Kraken
This sponser was not toxic like at all. I may have a revived drinking problem now though.
@@khariperkins4243Cheers. I'll drink to that.
Toast got me back into playing Hearthstone, Toast got me back into watching OTV, and now Toast got me back into following esports.
the sponsorship in this video was done very tastefully, defiantly wasn't distracting or obnoxious, a blueprint for all other content creators to follow.
Most of the time if there was an ad read, it was at the request of the sponsor not the youtuber themselves
Toast and Michael were both people I watched before OTV and I'm so happy they're getting the attention they deserve
Something about Toast that was so fun to watch in Hearthstone was that he would play the craziest off-meta decks and make it work
When toast genuinely loves doing something and when that thing genuinely interests him, he will do everything and anything for that thing and turn it into a success no matter the difficulties and risks. Toast will figure out eSports, trust... He wont leave a single stone unturned...
You forgot to mention one of the best moments of his career, getting banned for streaming anime.
and then getting sponsored to stream anime shows months later 🤣🤣
Then gets sponsored by Crunchyroll to stream Animes later on . Big dubs.
Its all a big brain plan by toast 😂
I miss the times in Quarantine with the daily Toast among us videos
same minus quarantine
ikr, I still watch his among us videos whenever I'm eating my meal
Honestly I quite like this style of video you guys made this time, nice job!
so glad he finally got his episode. remember watching him as a dark horse in tourneys with that toast mask. real ones know the meme is from the SI:7 agents
It's always kinda weird interviewing theScore staff for these videos lol
it's just cringe
Every time I see them take a sip of their mixed drinks it's very clear they are filling the quota for the advertiser
It is very cringe
It’s better than directly saying things in my opinion. It’s for the sponsors. Cringe for sure, but they are trying new stuff. Hopefully they get real people to interview instead
@@blizzard270 I was hoping when they started the "interview section" that they were actually going to talk to double lift but when I found out it was just someone else in the company just made it seam like they just needed another person to take sips from the black liquid
basically what charisma can do
unlike one famous masked youtuber with a smiley mask
exactly, people watched him because he was doiing fun things, but people stayed watching him because his personality is amazing, hes probably one of the nicest big streamers out there tbh
he didn't overhyped his face reveal like that smiley mask did
Imagine when I first played hearthstone, I watch disguised toast vod to learn when I was in middle school. Suddenly I am in university now and toast is a billionare. Time flies for real.
9:30 " I think ..aaa they really like me" his innocence little heart.
Crazy how you found the toast expert and got an interview with him!
That surprise TotalBiscuit segment just hit me in the feels out of nowhere.
Remember this - the first Streamer to get into the eSports space is TotalBiscuit. The man was before everyone else when he helped found Axiom eSports and signed StarCraft 2 players to compete in Korea. It's sad that because of his advancing Cancer and the slow downfall of the StarCraft 2 scene that he wasn't able to branch Axiom to other eSports. TotalBiscuit really was that great Elder Gaming Statesman for the entire Gaming Industry despite getting hate from certain circles over GamerGate. He was the one behind the scenes giving advice to guys to diversify their social media platforms and push for more for Streamers. He was the one that almost got Gacha Games banned in the United States and the West if not for his Cancer - his spreading awareness of how predatory Gacha Games are especially on minors led to companies slowly moving away from Loot Boxes. And when he died, many Gaming Companies that would've been called out by TotalBiscuit ended up being more shady and more predatory - leading to some companies reputations (especially Blizzard Ent.) downfall to ruin.
The guy was ahead of his time, and if it wasn't for his cancer - perhaps we'd be still talking about Axiom eSports. Perhaps Streamers would've jumped on the eSports scene sooner if TB was still around to guide them on the process.
Left out the part where during his early start with the mask he accidentally slept through a hearthstone event and got a lot of publicity from that of all things
ty for including Cynical Brit in the intro clip. man is a legend and so glad he got to commentate for Toast
Good video but the interview bits were weird, it would have made sense if you were interviewing Toast.
Or at least a friend or staff member of his who was there not just a random staff member of yours lol
Been watching toast since the mask era 😅 still love and respect Jeremy for the brilliant plays he does either in game or out
Aww it was a sad but happy to see total biscuit for that clip. Miss his wtf series.
The patreon's pretty cool. Well worth the sub
Clear, Exalt, and Steel was the best trio
RIP CynicalBrit
I think the thing with Toast is he seems very genuine. You see his interactions with his chat and you can tell what kind of person he is. I enjoy his content as well as OTV and their friends. They're very positive for the streaming community.
Bro's the definition of: never let them know your next move
The production quality on this video though 💜
The longest commercial for liquor I have ever seen. Maybe a little too much guys.
I love toast and his content wishing nothing but success for his own brand and DSG❤
Yo I low key love the ad incorporation. Two dudes talking about gaming over rum? Dope
I would love to believe that if toast really was streaming on Twitch during the Among Us Boom, he would be one of the biggest streamers on the Platform, a possible top 50, maybe a bit of a long shot but top 10 streamer is possible too. But streaming on Facebook also brought about it's own benefits, with Facebook brought about massive new audiences to him, that was unique to him at the time(meaning those audiences would be focused on him, and he won't be fighting for attention).
I definitely believe that as well!
toast is a really smart guy, the reason he went to facebook wasn't only for the money, it was for the novelty and discussions, many people were talking about that and a lot of people learned about him. he's not just doing things on a whim, he's actually thinking about the consequences. i think he's not top of the line streamer nowadays is because he took it easy, didn't stream much after among us, didn't do collabs as much and is just focusing on his passion. If he had continued to stream what was popular, i have no doubt he'd be just as big as he was in the among us boom. if not for the fact he now needs money for his esports, he'd probably stream way less than he does now. man was about ready to retire.
Awh man, that co-optional podcast intro breaks my heart
I remember watching all his Hearthstone card origins in one night
I remember early toast doing top 5 misheard voice lines, was amazing! He was truely a legend in my school! :D I miss early hs days
I love that Score Esports just interview one of their own employees as if they are some qualified people.
Nice sets, good editing. Well done I liked this
Finding Toast and the others during Covid times saved so many… ❤
I love Disguised Toast, ever since he was just starting in Hearthstone.
boys this production is awesome
"Another trend that was lurking suspiciously around the corner" lmao
So Blizzard banned him, for their own fuck up?
I sub to him on his hearthstone days. Gosh time do fly.
the kraken placement is cracking me up hahahaha
I really thought Masked Man was the masked singer and I was like WAIT WHAT. LOL
To think I was in the original reddit thread where he chose his name. Thats pretty crazy to see how far he has grown.
Damn, that music and clips at the beginning actually made me teary eyed 🤧👏🍞💖
I actually got to know other streamers because of him streaming among us on facebook. FB is big in my country.
Blizzard suspending Toast's Hearthstone account was basically shooting themselves in the foot (not that they haven't done it on other games), the declining viewership meant the game was gradually dying and it didn't help at all that their marketing campaign was absolute dogshit.
One of few likable personalities on internet
I've never wanted to drink a brand of rum less in my life ever... Well done.
man I can still remember when Toast was a TFT streamer
He's funny, but he's so smart. By being the direct sarcastic person he is, and not taking any shit and being blunt towards viewers, he's catered a non toxic community. He's skilled, entertaining, and a great brother to the people around him when things get hard. Oh and his free baby is the cutest baby ever. Proud to be part of his community
Unmasked Toast is not the real Toast. He's Disguised Toast
lil confession, when I first heard of this youtuber many many many moons ago.... I didnt see his name written, I always only heard it in videos, and I thought his name is "ThisGuy'sToast" 😂😂
Love this guy one of my favorites streamers ❤
DSG League is doing pretty well they are in grand finale for nacl challengers, I wish DSG wins the summer split and can make it to LCS.
4:49 They really put Summ1t as "funny" LOL 💀💀💀
I let this video play as background noise while I was washing my dishes and suddenly I thought it was Patrick Mahomes speaking at 4:38. I seriously thought it was Mahomes!!! The voices are pitch perfect match!!!
The totalbiscuit clip 😢
Tbf the guy is a genius. Yeah, he didn’t start out as a business man, but he was an amazing content creator and that’s basically where you learn the business snide and out.
Take Bill Gates and Steve Wozniak for example. Both Gates and Woz were brainy nerds who started out as computer programmers and when they had an idea, they threw it out and became rich business people.
Disguised Toast basically took his 3+ years of being an experienced streamer and decided to gamble his business ideas using his money and streaming experience and ofc, it panned out.
Bro was dream before dream
No mention of his LCS Challengers team?
Love the new setup kinda reminds me of Coffeezilla his vids
Let's go DSG...🥳
One giant ad for DT's patreon...
Can we not do the fake interview stuff again? Just go back to the voice overs. If you're gunna interview someone, don't interview your coworker. Just feels kinda awkward
This is the weirdest paid advert I've ever seen.
This episode's featured cocktail is the Kraken Crush.
Recipe:
1 part Kraken® Gold Spiced Rum
3 parts Orange Soda
Combine all ingredients in a glass filled with crushed ice. Stir to mix. Garnish with candied orange strips.
Guys I think you put some video game news in your alcohol ad
I never thought I'd see young KSI in a video from thescore
Huge respect to toast 👑
this mfer started my google home at 8:31
one of these guys sounds like kermit the frog lol, couldnt un-notice it when i noticed it haha
Did you know that this video was sponsored by Kraken Rum?
is that KoF 98 in the back?
nice alcohol advertising 😂😂
Alcohol becoming largest sponsor of esports events and coverages. “Great” times we are living in lol
Good video, do think saying there was no big variety streamers when toast was growing is wrong though. Most of the early big streamers were not tied to any one game
Not my google home going off
genuine question: is yay still with dsg?
Look at Eintracht Spandau (prime legue) , the team of handofBlood - it is doable, but U gotta do it right
At first, I thought that was Patrick Mahomes talking.
Disguised toast is so cool and great video man :]
why are you dinning one fo the reporters lol
Toast joining Offline Tv was the 2nd best decision ever. 1st is Michael Reeves of course
Lets go toast
WE LOVE YOU TOAST
>Money-Burning Millionaire
As opposed to the 20-something-number of millionaires out there that's ready to burn money. But sure.
Holy brand deal
I like that this video covers Toast's career pretty well but the sponsored part is just too much and "into your face", it really does distracts from the main content and just feels out of place.
Idk y kraken going so hard for the sponsorship but I big fuck with it
14:03 I miss kpop toast era 🥲
I wonder if this is sponsored by Kraken?
Fuckin hell the video quality has increased
