How much could he have possiby asked for considering they got rid of Savior? Thats a significant amount free'd up. Even at a lower S-level gamer salary he'll earn more than he would possibly earn elsewhere, why give up that chance now of all times. Makes no sense.

Given the ephemeral nature of the pro-gaming career-path, getting a degree and a proper job is definitely more forward-looking in the long run.

wow can't believe it was salary problems.

Perhaps they knew of the hite merger and knew the couldn't offer him as much with Leta joining?

CJ's company owns OGN, it's not like OGN dropped their sponsorship of the team they just had the teams merge with their parent company. The amount of money should be more if anything due to Sparkyz and CJ losing a lot of players.

I think that he said he doesn't want to be a progamer anymore says the most, not some salary haggling.

if its really about salary then thats pretty strange.
before he quit he was like the 3rd best player and cj is a strong company, so that shouldnt have been a problem normally...
