Sc2 has always had much higher prize pools relative to viewer numbers. And yet they complain all the time. :Dl Because the format isn't winner takes all lol League had 150k total, but it was split amongst all teams. SC2 was winner take all for 100k.l pretty good if you ask me, in OGN they play 2-3months for 80k so 60 for 1 weekend is pretty good. Sc2 was a one time thing to create hype, usually iem pays winners about 30-40k in sc2 iirc.l pretty sure I'm responding to a troll post, but SC2 scene is likely spending beyond their means and running on fumes.l Idk I thought that LoL was much more popular and develloped than starcraft but seeing today how they only got 4 times the viewers (I thought they had millions) I also assumed they made more money, even if LoL was also a winner take all format, the winning team would make much less money because they have to share the prizepool :x | ||

IEM is only streamed on twitch, which alienates the audience since I hear a ton of people rarely if ever can get twitch to work. | ||

Even if it was "ez win" for them. The finals were boring. Stop including race when what matters is quality of games. LCS are the same, if the games are boring, sometimes, there are next to no cheers. | ||

So that's >1.5M just in LCS salaries, not counting prize money for playoffs or Worlds. | ||
