EPTPlus the dude has under 50% win, so much for BW pros dominating the scene....
So I doubt he's one of them.

This isn't really that newsworthy as KeSPA even addressed it in the off-season with the fact they are thinking about adding a SC2 Pro League on OGN. I'm surprised this got over 151 pages and after reading Chill's disclaimer I really don't feel like getting invested in it. -_- What people are surprised about is that they don't just invite SC2 teams to come over, but rather let their own players play SC2. As you pretty much can't be super high level in two very difficult games, this would mean that they're actually switching to SC2. Flash and everyone. How is that not newsworthy? | ||

Not everyone is switching, hell at this moment Flash has no reason to. He makes more than 100k a year or something outrageous like that playing BW, same goes for many of the top BW players. If anything most of those playing are just doing it casually. Now the B-Teamers I can see switching. Not all but most. The same players who probably wouldn't be able to get far in a starleague. | ||

The leaked information already states that basicly everyone will switch. And depending on how you look at it, Flash would probably have the most to gain. He's reported to make between 250-400K a year and if he can indeed live up to the hype of being able to "clean the house" with all other sc2 pros then he could more than double that in prize money alone. | ||

It just says that most players have switched and started practicing. It doesn't say that they (A-teamers) will be playing it next season if it does come into PL. They could just be playing it to get used to the controls and see who is best at playing SC2, figure builds out and stuff so that they can train their SC2 lineup. | ||

From a thread back late August: EDIT: Sorry about that, was on the phone when checking. 1) Flash had a two year contract from KT last year (either that, or he extended the contract from last year). 2) Nothing on salary, other than it's over 250K, that can hit 300K with incentives. 3) Flash made 500K last year, One million since debut. So the OP is still very misleading and wrong | ||

Fact is I didn't know his exact salary but I knew it was in the triple digits, plus his prizemoney he makes from winning BW tournaments (which have more prize pool then sc2). flash will eventually switch, no denying that. But from where I'm standing, Flash has no reason to for quite some time (thank god, love watching his BW play). Especially considering south korea doesn't like giving its sc2 players a salary.. | ||

I'm sure Flash would get salaray from KT whatever game he play. | ||
