is he taking away from faker's income in some tangible way?

that doesn't matter.

by your logic I should be able to copy my older brother's research paper from college and use it as my own.

cause hey, as long as it doesn't directly affect the person I'm stealing from it's okay right?

and why is that a crime? does it affect my brother in some tangible way? what if it wasn't my brother and it was some dude I got it off the internet? what then?

so I can "earn" my grade? can't that be said for "earning" your money? where is the line drawn?

what he's doing may be legal according to twitch but it's fucking scumbaggy if you ask me.

why would you buff a new champ after 2 weeks of play.

He has what? 43% winrate after 2 weeks?
If he had a 50% winrate at release, he would be completely broken.



















he is a leech that doesnt contribute anything, just wants to leech some money from fakers fame.
Its a personal thing, i dont like leeches like that.

you're totally missing the point.

sure it's nice putting up a stream so you don't have to personally go on op.gg and open a .bat file to watch faker's games, but trying to make money off it is shameless at best.

he's not even pretending it isn't for profit.

i don't give a fuck why something is or isn't allowed, i'm telling you why you are wrong.

if you think rules are what you should base your moral stances on you should stop thinking as soon as possible.

So I decided to check out doyou TV out of curiosity, namei has 197,922 viewers on his stream wow no wonder I hear about these streamers making more than full time pros in China, for the sake of comparison the top hearthstone streamer (idk who he is but he's on iG) has 123,128, ZSMJ has 121,830 and YG's mid laner who is second on LoL has 27,081. I know it's a bit of a no shit given that it's China but still surprised me lol.

The accepted view is that Douyu numbers are heavily inflated (last number I remember is x4).

Kind of a sidenote, but accounting is actually pretty important and pretty tedious. Think of how big a business is, then think how you have to convert every goddamn asset or transaction done into some monetary value and make sure that is all matches up across a bajillion documents that are in not quite the same format. Not an accountant, but I've spent enough time digging through financials at my internship to know it kind of sucks (I mean, I just want an excel sheet with your info, stop sending me these goddamn PDF's that I have to manually convert).

If Faker knows the guy is streaming his games and doesn't care, who cares? It's the same thing as a guy who sells t-shirts or pictures of some famous celebrity to fans.
