SlayerS is not sponsored by Intel, and only BoxeR's uniform features the Intel emblem. | ||

Hopefully this will motivate them to return to beta / early retail form (Tester and Cool at least). | ||

I am not bashing the team... they are still very good, and I don't want the focus to be on the players so much (though I felt it was worth mentioning), but all things aside... they are getting that money in addition to any winnings... PLUS their living and daily costs are already covered. I think some people don't appreciate the costs of day to day living. $30,000 of disposable cash a year is quite a lot. Keep in mind, the salaries will significantly increase when certain players establish themselves as the best. As for the "80 hours a week" thing... they are playing a video game. I am NOT saying that it is not mentally straining, but at the same time many of them have a lot of fun with it. There are many jobs that people only work for 40 hours a week which are more stressful. Sorry this post was poorly written... it's getting late, but I think I got my point across. | ||

Another point is that they live in the teamhouse, and I think the rent and most of the daily food already gets supplied from the team. So your salary basically is savings and pocketmoney if you hit the town. Pretty much it is not comparable to a normal work situation salary, everyone would still be doing it if they didn't get paid salary (prize money not included ofc) so keep that in mind when you compare it. Like other in this thread, I'm also confused because I was under the impression that there were more teams that gave some sort of salary (stipend?) to their players. Sometimes when a (western) player transfer occurs one of the main reasons they state in the interview for making the change is because it was better financially. Also when I look at the picture Coach Lee looks like an absolute baller. He must've had a huge hand in making it happen, really cool. | ||
