For a year or so.. It's not like he will be millionaire with the prize money from 1st place.

no but 87K goes a long way to maintaining the minimum requirements of life. Rent, Food. utilities. Depending on how well he plays in other events he could just coast for a few years.

If IdrA would happen to win the whole GSL, I doubt he would retire when he's the best player in the world. More competitions = more money. Sponsors coming in next, putting IdrA in cheese commercials.
I can see it now: "As a well known hater of cheese, it came as a surprise to me when <brand name> cheese was all I needed to stay ontop of my game."

no but it'll be enough to live on for at least 3 years for a single person in seoul and it'll put him on everyone's radar. im sure he'll have no trouble finding a pro team if he wins the GSL.

Good points there. Hopefully something like that happens.

Hmm the D group links don't appear to work. The other three appear to have won all their matches so far.

Assuming the bracket I have is being updated there's still a match from round 2 going on in Artosis' bracket. The winner would then have to play the 3rd round to even up with everybody waiting at the 4th round where Artosis needs 1 match win to advance? This is obviously only if the bracket I'm looking at is actually being updated.

If dario beats his next opponent, he will face 장민철 (jang min chul) or IrOn, a former SC1 pro from MBCGame HERO team.

oGs T-shirt? I didn't know they have those already, very nice.
edit: Oh, I'm blind it seems. It's a TeamLiquid t-shirt with an oGs sticker(?) on the side.
