NaDa, for instance, had a salary of something like $800k over 3 years, and that's one of the biggest I can remember.

Was clearly an exaggeration, but here is a thread I remembered from a couple years ago.

Exactly my point - these salaries are at best 2.5x~ more, and only 4 listed pros have salaries higher than Stephano's current one (2.5x, 2.5x, 2x, 1x approx).

You meant a selected few KeSPA pros. He means everyone else.

He said 'you could hire most Kespa pros'.

He is entirely correct, as 'all but four (maybe 5 if NaDa's contract was still active)' fits the criteria of 'most'.

im curious, how does EG have so much more money than other sponsors



Because they have a ton of sponsors and they market themselves better than every team?

I misconstrued what he meant, I thought he was implying that you could hire a team of KeSPA pros for the same price as one Stephano. Not that you could hire a majority of different KeSPA players for the same price.

Well here comes the EG curse again, I'm just waiting for his arms to shrivel up and for him to switch to LoL.

Lol, EG didn't even get the courtesy of announcing the signing of a player to their team. I guess a lot of people were desperate for the e-fame of announcing an EG signing.
