A few USA chants are fine but please don't do it too much.

Stop the stupid USA arguments, thanks.

On another note, CDEC flairs are now live. Sorry about the delay on that.

IIRC newbee paid 30% last year in taxes? I could be wrong but I thought I read that somewhere.


Yep, tax rates should be somewhere in that 25-30% range. I don't think EG reveal how much money they take, though I recall last year they had something like a 7 way split.

This article says that the org takes a 10% cut.


After alliances win, they (EG) took 10% -- so yeah.

This is a weird mixture of cringe and enjoyment for me.

On the one hand, i hate the default questions thrown out by sports reporters (and not here), on the other i can think of so many things worth asking the winners of TI5.

Alright, folks, analyze the games of the grand finals carefully, because what you saw there is what's going to be eviscerated by 6.85.

Do you have a source? Or are the taxes just auto deducted?


Alliance paid taxes from their winnings. And Newbee too?


I don't see how it's avoidable. I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being more like a 40% effective rate but I'm honestly not entirely sure how it works with prize money. I dunno if it's ordinary income, how it works if they are from a different country etc etc.

So while we listen to the dulcit tones of this uh, music, time for the TI5 allstar lineup.

Captain/drafter: PPD
1: Aggressif
2: Sumail
3: Probably Zai?
4: Fy? I didn't actually get to catch many VG games in the groupstages.
5: No idea actually. My auto-pilot answer would be MMY, but he didn't actually have the greatest tournament. Not a great tournament for 5s in general.


5) PPD mostly because your captain / drafter has to be a player. Other than that, fully agree with the picks.

that's it? wow


If 80% of your salary comes from prize pools, you wouldn't let the organization take a big cut.

Valve covers taxes. One of my friends works for Valve and is directly involved in running the whole thing (Got to sit up in the Valve Corp suites on Thursday!!)
