Or, as some people call them, modern mines.
*Jesus mines. They came back from the dead.

A lot of the money they make is direct from Riot in salary, as well as stream revenue and sponsorships. Actual tournament prize money in LoL is relatively low.

Not directly from tournament winnings as far as I know.

That was impressive, no doubt. But since then he kinda hasn't done.. anything. Makes Code S then bombs out early. (Maybe this round he'll do well?! ZVZ?!?!?) In SPL he didn't do very well either. Going to a foreign team now so honestly I don't have much faith in him doing any better.

If it is just money, it is a bunch of DotA guys, who won a single tournament. If you factor in other stuff, Flash is one of the most succesfull. Other candidates would be Jaedong, NaDa, MooN, Mvp, MC, Fatal1ty, f0rest and probably a few guys from games, I am not familiar with. for dota it would be teams like navi, alliance and a lot of chinese teams.
