Yet right! No way in hell is that true in any form possible!!This is the most shitty reporting I've ever read. How is jaedong going to be compared to these guys in the SC section!? i'm sorry for being such an ass but this article is full of crap.


Thresh is one of the first pro gamer ever, and his career earnings are probably higher than JD's. Companies like Razer owe a lot to him.

Fat was on MTV and even if you don't like Halo or MLG (which I don't), you can't deny that T2's earnings have been really impressive.

Points for the people who remember Killcreek. o.o


Romero's wife, the one who striped for PlayBoy?

i heard of all of these players except the Halo one, i don't own a X-box console so i don't follow.
Tresh won the first big Q3 tourney and the prize was John Romero's Ferrari.
I am not good with quotes

I knew the others, but I hadn't heard of tsquared.

Probably because he plays Halo and that's a garbage console FPS!

Lee Jae-Dong in figures:

2809 – His December 2009 rating which makes him the current top player in South Korea according to the Korean e-Sports Players Association;



2809? Jaedong is going to assimilate with the Overmind and live another 800 years?



1990 – Jaedong’s birth year which makes him the youngest player to be competing with the top earners in the business;



hey guys

Learn to read.

1) 2809 is his kespa rating, nothing to do with the year 2809.

2) Competing with the top earners. If Jaedong is earning 50% more money than flash, what does it matter if flash is younger, he isn't competing.

I'm pretty sure NaDa and BoxeR made huge sums of money, but aren't up there

Grubby and Fatal1ty definitely deserve to be up there though !

I dont think so. He is under a fixed contract for 110,000USD a year. Thats just his fixed income.
They didnt include the money he made from OSL, MSL prize and the commercials he was in.
I think he earned much more. If not the highest earning one on that list.
btw, only know Jaedong and Grubby from that list. For people dont play W3, watching Grubby play W3 is very entertaining as well.

I somehow doubt that. As much as I love boxer I think Thresh is probably more famous as a professional gamer.

Ah I remember the Q2 days, watching Q2 games of Thresh vs Immortal, Billox, Entropy etc. He was a serious pro, and fun to watch dominate.
