i'm gonna be hated on for saying this, but tester and fruitdealer leaving at the beginning was probably a bigger hit to oGs than nada and mc leaving now. Since oGs is now much better known and has more corporate support than before they are less reliant on the big names of MC and NaDa to provide reasons for these companies to start supporting them. At the time when tester and fruitdealer left they were funded out of spunky's pocket. >>

on-topic: Good luck to NaDa T__T
makes me sad to see oGs lose yet another great player
i'd like to hope that this isnt all about the money and that nada really does just want a more challenging environment ><
I play protoss because it's imbalanced. :D

Uhhhhh, given that NaDa has, at least, a good ~500k in the bank from his time on WMF alone -- not even talking about past winnings or anything, just how much he was signed for during his time on that team -- I don't think he's exactly hurting for money right now. He left all that to go to SC2, mind you, where he probably wasn't making 1/10 of what he was making on WMF.

Not to mention, a shit ton of cash in the bank and a good university education for him to fall back on (a Computer Engineering degree, which is highly marketable, from Inha University, which, despite what rumor likes to tell people, is not a "community-college"), and I highly, highly doubt he's doing it for money -- or at least, that's not his main motivation.



Lol 500k.. ok let me explain to you something -

- he is a famous player correct- yes he was VERY successful. Money however is a fiat item that has the ability to disapear.
now nada obviously doesnt live rent free, he doesnt have food delivered to him for free, he doesnt get gas for free he doesnt live for free ok? got that?

now lets return back to the logical pathway . 500k - ~300k living costs since he earned that - Xk that he lost doing other "stuff" leisure etc etc etc etc

Now, he has this business thats great. But if you do economics theres a thing called marginal benefit. he might be in the money river in the long run, but right now, thats not the case. Its economics, hard to argue with it.

My recommendations for NaDa- even if he doesnt want to. Join a foreigner team for money and I also feel hes not at the top in korea so it seems more realistic he will make grater profit overseas since he is better than most players (bar some mouz/empire players) - MLG's shouldnt be a problem me thinks.

thanks.


Nada has WAY more money than what you're thinking. First of all it was a $600k contract not $500k, and the contract he had with WMF was his second $600k contract. That's $1.2 million right there and that doesn't even include what kind of salary he got pre-2004. Now add in $350k in tournament prizemoney and personal sponsorships and we're talking about somewhere near $2 million that Nada's earned over his career. Also, it's quite well known that Korean progamers who live in teamhouses get housing and food for free. This wasn't the case for Nada during his time at oGs since he lived on his own but during his time as a BW gamer he never had to worry about living expenses. Is it possible Nada blew all his money on worldly pleasures or bad investments? Sure, but given the nature of Koreans to hand all their money to their parents for safekeeping and the growth of the general strength of the South Korean economy over the last decade I doubt it.

Hwanni said Nada was paid to do that promo spot for LoL guys (on jp's new show), so it might mean much...but you never know.
I really need to try some LoL...never actually played it..mainly because I've never been a dota fan..think should give it a go though.

For someone who's already achieved a lot as a progamer, the next big challenge would be create a team ..but looks like he's not thinking along those lines.


Nadas vs Slayers... :D
