Now all those who say the Bw scene is only tbls can shut up, especially those on reddit. I don't see any SC2 pro making even close to 3k streaming what tyson earns.

[image loading]

it's coincidence. i worked certificated public accountant in korea. lol

For example, JD earns 336,000,000₩ per year.

his tax is about 108,280,000 per year.

but if JD visit me, i can reduce it to under 50,000,000. lol

JD says he earns 300,000,000₩ in 2010, and in 2010, his tax is about 100,000,000₩.

SC2's on the fade anyway. Who really cares what they think of BW anymore, if ever anyone did?

because reddit is the first address potential newcomers will visit, not tlnet. And as long as they present wrong facts about the BW and SC2 scene, it will deter people away from BW. They are that desperate, to undermine a 19 year old game at any point possible in order to promote their dying game.

You are Fruchtzergeis on Reddit? If yes then you're probably deterring more people from BW than all the SC2 fans on that sub. You're making BW fans look like assholes

All successful streamers are filthy rich in general. One of my favorite Twitch streamers said something like: "anyone who regularly gets at least a couple thousand viewers is a millionaire". In US dollars.
Tyrant.

I have watched Hiya played his game, he seemed haven't earned any balloons, his target is 500 balloons each live stream times.

Hiya played game very well, rate win than 90% in normal games and his rank channel ladder is about 20.

Rarely, He received little balloons, he was so happy and turn on music, said thank you so much,...

Hiya has everything necessary to get balloons as others gosu but why not?

Well as sad as it is a lot of these donations come from earlier fans who now have grown up and can donate. If you look at the list you see that most players getting big donations are either pretty famous for their BW (tbls, 6 dragons, Sea for example) or are famous for being notoriously entertaining (TerrOr, Britney, Larva for example, with TerrOr and Britney not even beeing pure BW streamers). While Hiya is known for a long time, he doesn't really fit into these categories. It's hard to gain balloons if you don't already have an existing fanbase. And if you gain new fans, they often times are too young to donate.

Well, first of all, don't forget that these are the revenue numbers. Depending on your contract you get paid out 50-70% of that.

Korean income tax (if you earn more than 80 000 000 won / year , which these guys apoparently do) is capped at 35%.

So even at worst rate you are still lookingt at 12k $ /11k € / month


So those are numbers before Afreeca's cut? Also Flash has some agreement with Afreeca where they take a lesser cut right?

Flash is a Partner BJ on Afreeca meaning he gets 80% of the full balloon revenue (60% for regular BJ, 70% for best BJ). Since Afreeca streaming counts as a private organization by law in Korea, he only needs to pay 3.3%(3% income tax, 0.3% residence tax) of that 80%. So assuming that he tops 40k a month, he actually gets around 31k(!).

Thats a LOT, flash is indeed raining money. This is balloons only, and i read that Partnered BJs get tons of bonuses including
shared AfreecaTV ad revenue, his own channel ad as afreeca banner, and 4k streaming.

The above post about taxes are correct for full-time employees hired by registered organizations, where tax is heavily applied upon high revenue. Afreeca streaming actually doesnt count as one iirc.

I see him stream less often than Flash, but maybe I'm just unlucky. We'd need the income per hour of stream if we were to compare them.
