-.- the whole point is, for those of you still not getting it, is that MVP's salary is him waltzing away with a GSL every single month

he doesn't win every GSL and although he is consistent, salary from GSL isn't consistent. you can be winning every time then not make anything for months.

GSL isnt just top prize you get money for every spot straight down to code A Ro32

im pretty mcuh i heard that even if you get knocked out of R032 every season in code S its enough money to live on



1400 dollars every 1.5 months is 11200 dollars a year, im pretty sure that that might be okay ONLY if you live in a teamhouse and you buy stuff very minimally


I think the big factor is that most of his stuff (room, food, etc.) is paid for.

ROFL MVPs salary is not more than $600k a year.

why wouldnt it be?
its rumoured huk switched teams for 100k salary

Flash is 50x more popular than MVP in Korea, he is much more dominant and he plays a game that is 50x more popular than SC2... yet he makes 250k/year. What the hell makes you think MVP would make 600k/year? Do you have any idea how much money that is lol

oh man now i really feel stupidi keep thinking for some reason salary is monthly even though i know its yearly :/

well MVP has probably made over 600k in the last year though i think the last time i checked winning MC was over a million

but ya total repeated brain fart over salary sorry ><

MC has won just over 200k throughout his sc2 career.

Okay, why are we talking about salaries? The joke was that GOM had to pay MVP 50k per month because he keeps winning dem gsls. Nothing more, nothing less.

The joke is terrible because it suggests that EG needs to pay Mvp more than 50k to convince Mvp to join when in reality prize money has nothing to do with salary. I thought the joke itself was terrible, but look at the traffic its gotten lol.

Haha...

But then again...

Wait, no.


EG needs to pay more than the 50k/month that GOM is currently giving to MVP.

MVP is awesome, but is he actually worth $600,000 a year? I'm not so sure...

his salary is almost certainly more then that

HuK and IdrAs salary are probably more then 50k

i think your underestimating how much sponsors dish out


LOL

My bet is Idra and HuK both have a higher annual salary than MVP. MVP probably makes more because of GSL though.

Yup. This is almost definitely true. The marketing potential of both of them is waaay higher than any Korean. They almost definitely generate more for their team than any other SC2 player in the world.

Yah, I have to say that I seriously doubt that the actual salary of idra and huk is over 50k per annum. The added advantage they have is very little to no expenses. There is no way they would offer a Korean player with no salary anything over that.

Lol I remember when I went to japan and got a pocari sweat. I looked at my friend and just asked him "What the hell is this, is this an actual drink?" Now I know the power of the sweat.

That is one of the most popular drinks in S. Korea... Hell, it's my favorite drink too. You are trying to dig that rabbit hole on solid concrete.

It's just been announced that StarTale is making a League of Legends team and is inviting them to live with the SC2 team in the training house.

This means an EG+StarTale partnership is a lot less likely since ST is apparently financially sound and will likely have no room in the team house.
