I don't think fnatic would've been half the team without you, and I wish you the best of luck to where ever you're heading. | ||

TSL is without protoss and ToD in korea?  | ||

That is, do you think it's is/will be in the next five years a stable job which can sustain someone? I think there are a lot of valuable roles to play, but my main thought about that would be... a) Once the scene fully develops and matures, there are going to be a finite number of teams capable of paying people a sustainable / livable salary. Maybe 10-20 teams will be able to do that... so right there, there are only 10-20 people who will be able to support themselves from being team managers. Obviously, there are an almost infinite number of manager positions available, but there's a huge difference between being the manager for a team like vVv and EG, for example. So, while I think it is a realistic career choice, someone considering it needs to be aware that the pool of jobs will be VERY limited and only a handful can make a real living by just being a manager. b) Team managers aren't getting enough to live off of, the salary I got from Fnatic based on the amount of work the job required was fractional. My salary at NASL is much higher than what I got paid from Fnatic but the work load was very comparable. So right now, the scene is not developed enough where managers can even earn a livable wage, this is another issue. In the next 5 years however, I think this issue will probably be resolved, and managers will be able to earn real wages. c) The other thing to think of is that there will be different positions other than team manager. I think coaching is going to be a new developing trend in the foreign community. I think Strelok is a person positioned to do that, where he basically left Mouz to join imba not only to compete as a player, but to position himself to be a sort of coach / leader / mentor to the next generation of players to be in the team after he 'retires.' I think there is a real future in these kinds of positions that older top players thinking about not playing full time will be able to do. Hopefully that's a decent answer | ||
