I am not sure it could be possible lol. Eloboard never cooperates with me and always stops working when I want to use the date to date function.


Edit:
You're right. It is only PL that you're looking at.

considering for most players it is most if not almost all of their income,its not that much

i guess minority of them, like rain, bisu, shuttle got extra income from streaming ads and subsriptions as they have high number of viewers

but looks like by far the highest earning broodwar player is artosis lol

No, before proleague, streamers even in the low 3 digit viewer numbers still got 50k or so a year in balloons alone

See previous threads.

Proleague money is on top now.

The impressive thing is that this is 100 percent community funded and not from some Saudi prince funded by slave labor.

Ok, when I see top players like Light or SoulKey have 100-200 viewers on Afreeca, I woudn't think they have significant income from this.

I enjoy proleagues very much, hope they will go on with top level play for long time.

KCM, Ultimate Battles, sponsor matches, chinese tournaments, chinese events, coaching, university events etc. I think for the big proleague earners proleague is like 65 of their income. for smaller earners probably close to half because they get a bigger percentage of their income out of coaching and university events and sponsor matches.

Lower earners tend to play vs chinese a lot. also get sponsored hunters games quite often.

They also do League of Legends sponsored matches from time to time.

and then there are meme gamers like larva and last who make like 500-1000 per youtube video on top of their streaming and donations and memberships.

This is just 1 quarter and only from balloons.

The lowest ranked on this list, Piano, earns in a quarter as much as the whole GSL prize pool from balloons alone

Piano was super inactive over 2023. He used to earn a lot from UMS random ability unit. More than from proleagues lol.

IDK why you are surprised by low viewer count from some of top players if you've watched enough proleague when that's fairly common

Proleague prizepool has big viewer streamers pooling in on top of that and that's why it has big money across all skill tiers. Sharp gets like 50-200 viewers for example

I mean there's reason Shuttle and Calm are big draws in leagues they play in

sometimes the smaller top pros have a very wealthy top donor who throws money every time.

It legitimately makes me upset that Effort doesn't participate in tournaments more, especially when he proves he can still play at a high level. If he won one more ASL, I'd rank him as the clear 2nd best player post-KESPA, and probably close to overtaking Stork as the 4th best player of all time.
