Might be dangerous even replying to this, but I'm hardly jealous of Envy. I've played at a competitive level, have won some money before (no, not as much as EE, but there weren't many big tournaments when I played). Streaming probably could've made me more if I kept up with it. But at this point, I'm good friends with a good number of the pro players including players on Liquid and LGD.int, and I often give them general advice about random things. If one of my friends like bulba said he wanted to drop out to play fulltime, I'd give him the same exact advice: finish up your degree since Dota isn't forever. I don't know EE well, but I do know the dota scene and I was also in an engineering program, so I know that it's far more profitable to finish up your engineering degree in 99% of circumstances. That said, I want the scene to prosper more than anything, so hopefully NTH does find further success.
