Hero isn't all that great sadly, way overrated.

It is sad to say, with players like sangho still teamless, these 2 guys dont really stand much of a chance. GL regardless. | ||

 I liked Golden's play, and I love Dragon's stream. Looking forward to see where Golden ends up though. | ||

I think that salaries in the line of 1k / 1,5k per month is very good for a SC2 player , prize money is where the real bucks are and with that comes higher salaries. i think SC2 has a growth problem because to be a follower of the professional scene means you also either play or played Starcraft , so it has limited number of viewers and only the best players are worshiped like they were Michael Jordan . Then there is the community that tries to "kill" everyone who tries to have an opinion and is on lesser leagues than them ( bronze , silver , gold ,plat ) , so its hard for new players to get along and get excited with the game and the scene. Blizzard tried to make the game more friendly because of that i think but they could have done a much much much more better job advertising it ( like WoW ) . I really hope the best for e-sports and SC2 , sc2 is the E-sport nothing really compares to this, its actually required to be super sharp , smart to play professionally and to devote your life to it , if it fails e-sports fails.. Sorry if i hurt someone feelings but this is just my opinion. | ||

Its how you get blackballed in industries - happens regularly. But isn't there a problem if no one talks about their salaries? How to expect how much you can ask for if no one knows how much the actual salarys are.(i mean in terms of pro's searching a new team) | ||

Besides, I could be remembering wrong, but I think the reason Dragon joined SlayerS in the first place was because he was one of the only practice partners BoxeR could get before the team formed. | ||

Salaries are released in just about every single sport, so the fact that people want this to be an "esport" yet hide all the inside information are the true ones being "inappropriate" what are you scared of? Obviously it seems that some people have something to lose by releasing such information. | ||

Sorry if i hurt someone feelings but this is just my opinion. I totally agree. I also believe many people think that becoming progamer is easy, but they have to play for long hours, and not just mess around when playing either like when on ladder. There is a lot of competition, and you really need a tournament wins to make money and become an actual star. | ||

There is a lot of competition, and you really need a tournament wins to make money and become an actual star. I think if 1k a month becomes a standard salary then e-sports is doomed to fail. Have any of you ever tried to make it on your own off 12k a year? You can talk all you want about tourney winnings making up some difference but the reported stats on that tell a different tale. IMO it is completely unreasonable to expect somebody to focus their entire energy on a game when not placing in the money for a weekly tournament means no food. As of right now tournaments/teams are not providing for the greater community at all. Youtube and streaming sites on the other hand... As is the starcraft community is less e-sports and more "lets play". A real living salary with benefits becoming the standard for excellence would change everything. | ||
