Additionally, passholders will be eligible for exclusive giveaways, merchandise releases, event access, Q&A sessions with creators, and entry into a private Discord server.
These passes are priced at $19.99 each, offering fans the chance to assist their chosen creators in assembling their ideal team roster, in addition to the aforementioned perks.
