TimTheTatMan joins Complexity Gaming
FRISCO, Texas (BVM) — Joining gaming organizations can be rewarding for internet content creators. And on Monday it was announced that Complexity Gaming signed one of the biggest streamers in the world: Tim “TimTheTatMan” Betar.
“Joining the Complexity team has been an amazing journey,” Betar said in a press release. “I’ve followed Complexity’s success and I am impressed with their commitment to winning in top-tier esports and the loyalty of their fans. The connection with the Dallas Cowboys and the support of Jerry Jones is outstanding. I’m a lifelong Cowboys fan so this is a special opportunity within esports. My tour of the Complexity headquarters at the Star in Frisco was world-class; no esports facility comes close. When Complexity and GameSquare invited me to join the team, it was an easy yes. Jason Lake has built an amazing team at Complexity and Justin Kenna is building something special at GameSquare. I am excited to get started.”
This isn’t the first time an esports organization has signed a big name. One of the bigger names signed to an organization recently was Nicholas “Nickmercs” Kolcheff, one of Betar’s closer friends. He signed with FaZe Clan in 2019 and was named co-owner of the organization earlier this year.

If more superstar content creators like Betar and Kolcheff join esports organizations, the growth of gaming will only continue to be positive, especially if that growth happens in Texas. The Dallas Fuel, run by Envy Gaming, currently has professional teams in Call of Duty, Overwatch, PlayersUnkown’s Battlegrounds and Counter-Strike. It took $20 million for them to get an Overwatch team.
TimTheTatMan joining Complexity Gaming is a colossal move. And it likely won’t be the last. Content creators such as Zack “ZLaner” Lane are possibly looking to join an organization in the near future.
“TimTheTatman is an iconic streamer and will be an invaluable addition to the Complexity family as we look to expand our footprint in content creation,” said Jason Lake, Founder and CEO, Complexity Gaming, and Global Head of Esports, GameSquare in the press release. “As traditional sports, gaming, and entertainment continue to converge, our partnership with Tim will encompass the best of these worlds for fans to enjoy.”
