Thanks for the info classicyellow83.
The top few players are earning well, but the rest of starcraft 1 streamers are actually making very little. Its not sustainable for them. The numbers are mind blowing, but also are misrepresenting of the star1 player base earnings as a whole.

I wouldn't say that these numbers are mind blowing, they are close to the average EU salary (3000 EUR/month) and the average salary in South Korea (2900 $/month) according to Google. The fact that they don't spend 8h on streaming is of course increasing the $/hour rate.
This is very good news, BW is alive and kicking.

Bro, trolling? or blind?
the best players are earning roughly
$30000
USD
PER MONTH
don't even talk about $/hour, its insanely high lmao

the others hardly earn much but irregardless, what the top earners get is mind blowing compared to your average office worker.

I am surprised Mind earns that much, he only has like 300 viewers max, unless there is a sponsored match. Some viewers must really have a lot of money.

Dont forget that Seul, South Korea is the Mecca of E-sports.

Are you the creator of mca64?

1K is easy to get...
But 30K for playing a game? i think is too much...

Yeah honestly. Compare that with the income of football players in europe. Those guys earn a disgusting amount of money, far more than these bw players...

btw for anyone curious or questioning sources, you can look at the daily balloon earnings of Afreeca BJs from this site, which compiles statistics from korean Afreeca site
(provided you know their afreeca nicknames of course)

starlog.ml

their balloons earnings for the day is shown at the end of every name section
ygosu also gets their data from this website


Thanks!

Now i know why he always make a bows and thanks a lot. He recieve ballons=money!!!

I will also make bows for earning 40k per mont lol.

Oh shit, I was probably half-asleep when I wrote that and thought it was a year salary.
Hahaha, my bad.
Oh shit, they earn so much, like x10 more than an average EU and Korea salary ;D

Here, where? I've been earning $1100 but that was like a lot in my country and I knew that for that same job ppl in US were getting payed like x10 more and I think it was very unfair.
Also, imagine these guys were working hard like almost all their youth and basically have no other knowledge or experience other than BW. If it was not for Afreeca or other streaming services where would they go? Dish washing? It is actually very fair, in my opinion, that they are getting payed for their incredible skills in one of the most difficult E-sport games. Also, how many of the total number of former BW pros are getting payed that much?

Keep in mind that a career of a football player does not last long, 35 and you're practically out. What you gonna do next? Coaching? Ads? You are still young at 35 and all you can do is play football. Even if you have pockets full of money this is just sad in my opinion.

There are only around 30 Partner BJs in the entire Afreeca. Having 2 in BW is amazing. Would have been 3 but Bisu declined the offer.

Who is the second Partner BJ in BW?
