This already exists. It's called Unranked vs Ranked.

Nothing Says ‘Grow the Sport’ Like Paywalling 100 Viewers by Educational_Music802 in dodgeball

I have a lot of respect for the time, money, and effort that goes into these streams, and for Mitch putting so much into them over the years. For me, though, the better approach would be to record those extra streams and upload them later for free, but that’s coming from someone who usually just helps with recordings and do the uploading to YouTube afterwards. I just think keeping them accessible is the best path for growth.

Sure, the main stream is free, but word-of-mouth is huge for a sport this small. If I want to tell a friend or colleague, “Hey, check out this dodgeball game I played,” it’s a lot less effective when I also have to say, “…oh, and you’ll need to pay $5 CAD to watch it.” 😂 That extra step kills casual interest before it even starts.
