No wonder FlaSh is a monster.

I feel kinda bad for him though, having to play so many games as a kid.


i'm sure there are a lot worse things than playing games all day for fame and fortune lol.

I wonder if stork makes about the same amount given that hes probably the most accomplished player in samsung


He does not. Free makes more than him and I think Free is under 200k


Wow thats pretty sad. Any ideas how do they decide the players salaries? It's pretty disturbing to see free having more salary compared to stork who has achieved way more even though they are silver but hey he has got a 2 golds in his belt( WCG and OSL)


Stork plays WoW a lot, i think that is a good enough excuse.

Everyone who's watched a flash game knows about the ruler and tape etc. You can see him doing it before the games He even does it the same way each time.

Good stuff though.

I don't know why you feel bad for him Last Romantic. For 200 thousand freakin dollars a year I'd play 1000 games a day if I could. I envy the guy...amazing. The bad part is even if I did, I still probably wouldn't ever be as good as him.




...
Yes, I have watched a flash game and saw him bring out the ruler and tape :p and yes I would also love to be making 200 thousand a year to play

Well sure you can say the kid's making a fortune by playing videogames but the mental stress caused by carrying his whole team while being a dual-league favorite is taking a heavy toll on his mental state / psychological development. As much as he tries to cover it up, you can see how overworked he is in interviews.

It really is enormous pressure to stay as a top-tier pro gamer.. (otherwise you don't make enough money) I wouldn't want to be a pro gamer either.

Yeah. I agree with you Last.

I dont know if it is because they are older, but JD and Bisu seems to handle the practice schedule and pressure very well. They always seem calm and OK about it.

He has also stated something along the lines of ~ him being extremely happy with his choice of becoming a progamer and rather be doing that then seriously studying for school.
Of course the practice regiment is difficult and the pressure is difficult, but he appears to still enjoy progaming.
