Hate to think it, I mean I think we all knew the days of the pro scene were numbered, but the end seems to be coming sooner than later. The health and motivation just doesn't seem to be enduring, and all new noteworthy talents from the Kespa machine like Sorry and Soma have emerged by this point. After these guys, there will be no one of any comparable talent worth watching.

After these guys, there will be no one of any comparable talent worth watching. It's one of the most demanding professions both mentally and physically. Hard to believe anyone could do this for so long while staying at the elite level. Injuries are unsurprising and burnout is expected. I think the conditions have improved post-Kespa with much less pointless overworking, maybe that's why they're still in it. | ||

Jaedong was off from mid december until Late Jan. There is still plenty emerging talent. Speed has emerged this past year. We are seeing some younger amateurs get closer to breaking through too lately. | ||

Yeah but even those "younger amateurs" aren't new. Their names have been around for so long and they are not even younger than Mini/Soma/Royal. Speed is a legit pro gamer. As are Motive, Ruin.... | ||

There is not enough money to go around for new people to invest the time and effort and old time pros don't need to invest as much time once they hit their ceiling. | ||

Its a game of passion for the up and coming players. But if they can break into proleague level and build a viewership they can expect 4k-20k a month in income from BW. So there is money in it, just hard to get to that point. | ||
