Wonder if they will give most of it to the organization and split the rest evenly among the players, or give 40mil (200 mil / 5 players) to each winning player and 20mil (100 mil / 5 players) to each losing player, or some combination of that. I would guess that the winning MiG players would be awarded a higher individual prize, but not double that of the losing players, while a large portion goes to the organization. I guess I've always been curious as to how prize money is distributed to a winning team and how the players get paid whether it is a salary (that perhaps increases with success) or just get a share of the tournament winnings or both and how this differs between teams from EU, USA, and Asia. I would guess that if they have strong sponsors they would have a constant income. we're not an organization we're just two teams playing under the same name But you are somewhat related right, not 2 completely random teams? yea but there's no "organization" that's going to take most of the cash from winnings, 100% of the winnings go to the players. Interesting. So does MiG basically just consist of 10 players or are there any managers or other people in the background helping you guys out? Coming from a SC2 background I'm used to teams like EG/Liquid/oGs/Slayers that sort of act as businesses and I incorrectly assumed Korean LoL teams would be like that just a lot smaller, kinda like CLG/TSM with the website/sponsors etc. But after MiG's success I can see it sort of heading in that direction with LoL's popularity exploding in Korea (unless of course they want to stay independent). Come to think of it, anyone know if MiG has a website? Really curious about these Korean teams, especially MiG Frost/Blaze, since they're among the best in the world it seems. Seeing the beginning of Korean LoL is exciting, really cool to see a bunch of great players form a team, make a name for themselves and win a championship on their own. I wonder what MiG/Xenics/Najin e-mFire/Team OP etc will be a year from now.
its 10 players and onair who acts as a coach/manager, we have people helping us out from time to time but currently one of our player's dad rented us a room for the gaming house for free and onair pays for our food and stuff. onair some times takes a few % from the winnings but all the money he uses for the team (uniform,food,computers,desks,travel expense for the team,etc)

Re: MiG
So the coach doesn't get paid? And the rent is being covered by a player's dad? Doesn't seem like a very sustainable team structure.

What would happen if you found a really good sponsor but they were only willing to sponsor one team?
Sponsoring 10 players after one major tournament may be a bit of a hard sell even if they placed 1st and 2nd. Would you considering letting one team stay unsponsored and hope someone else picks them up (would conflicting sponsors stop you guys from practicing together)? It sounds like waiting 6-12 months for potential high paying sponsors may be difficult without proper connections/kind of paying for everything out of pocket.
Not sure if this is feasible in but I know (western) SC2 players have been known to be individually sponsored even while as a team.
I wish you the best Loco!

Did they mention how to win the kat skin?

Is what Moletrap just said about Sivir spellshield vs Karthus ult true? I don't play her but I do play Nocturne and that is the opposite of how it works on him.

You have to spellsheild before he casts ult, and that if you pop shield after he has already casted it won't block.
