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.

http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=142342

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.

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.
