So if you win one big tournament you are good (moneywise) and else you can probably barely cover your expenses as a progamer (if at all). It would be good for esports if more progamers can actually make a good living and therefore prizepools should be A LOT more even distributed. Even GSL pays 1.3k just for participating in Code S. Thats only 1 day (2 if you count up/down matches). In NASL you have to play 9 matches and 35 players will get nothing? Thats not how a proleague should be. My take: Eliminated in Groupstage: 750$ Ro16: 1500$ Ro8: 2500$ 4th: 5000$ 3rd: 7500$ 2nd: 12500$ 1st: 27250$ maybe they want to have a bigger 1st/2nd prize than gsl? | ||

Once you can actually say everyone in the roster has "earned their place" without a doubt, maybe a more bottom friendly prize distribution would make sense. GSL did have several open qualifiers before all this codeA/codeS business, don't forget. | ||

Breakdown like the following would keep a 50K prize to the winner for publicity's sake, and still divide up the wealth a bit more amongst the others. 1st $50,000 2nd $18,000 3rd $8,000 4th $5,000 5th-8th $2,250 9th-16th $1,250 But whatever, it's still looking like a great league! | ||

 . I agree that more of the prize money should go to the lower leagues, GSL is a good example. As soon as you make it into Code S, you can actually make a living of it (almost). I think it is a great system, because it gives players financial security as long as they stay in the league. | ||

Morrow got more money by going to Korea for two weeks and he never won a single game. Very disappointing to say the least. | ||

The way as it is the already very good players will continue to strive for perfection, but the large amount of good, decent players will not be able to make enough money to pay for food and rent unless they get lucky once in a while. I've expected more from NASL. | ||
