Why switch when you're earning 300k USD/year no problem?

Isn't there a market for a player like that in sc2 ?
Well....dunno. Maybe he will just milk last few years of bw, and quit progaming all together ?

What do you mean by market? As far as i know SC2 has no large corporate sponsor yet.
Last few years of BW lol.

Didn't it get bumped to 400k?


either way its more than ten times what every korean sc2 player earns as salary combined.


I think his point was if he cant play at a level to earn him 300k, and so he has to negotiate much lower, would that be enough to jump. Otherwise, yes it would be dumb for him to leave a gravy train mid gravy.


He was doing just fine before the surgery, there's no reason to think he's suddenly going to become an MVP-level player.

Thanks for all the interesting tidbits Milkis!

If you get anything more on the new proleague team being formed, that'd be my priority for news, since that doesn't appear in most interviews usually.

@Everyone commenting on Flash
After his rehabilitation and a month or two to perfect his mechanics again, you'll probably see him dominating as usual. He makes more money than winning all the GSLs combined if I understand correctly. Also, even if as a player he weren't able to perform up to his previous standard, you'd have to be insane to lose him as coaching material, NaDa was held on wemade fox for a huge retainer for a while despite not performing well. Flash isn't going anywhere.

Thank god they're changing the 04:00 GMT (+00:00) and 09:00 GMT (+00:00) schedules for the first week of GSL. That is 12am and 5am for me. I call that hell week.

Boxer earns $180k per year currently, so that is hardly true (from http://www.rakaka.se/index.php?newsID=15450 ).



Flash is getting paid for his skills (3-400k)
Boxer is getting paid for his image (180k)

So you are saying Flash doesn't have an image which greatly would help him and his salary if he switched to SC2? (which is what the discussion was about). Regardless, it doesn't matter. It shows that there is money in the SC2 scene as well.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Way to miss the point. Boxers salary is almost wholly based on him being the grandaddy of Starcraft, and an eSports icon. If flash were to play SC2 he wouldn't have anything near his current base salary of 3/400k.

Don't think Kang Min can keep up with SC2 anymore(just look at yellow) but with his experience as a commentator I can see him coming back in that role.
When SC2 came for BW, I cried. Now LoL/Dota2 comes for SC2, and I laugh. \o/
