HTOMario a casual player leaving the team is a huge red flag. Gl to the guy, you made the right choice, there is no future in sc2 unless you are the very top tier
I would've agreed with you 100% if you hadn't called Mario a casual player.... >_>
Yeah I should have worded that better. I respect everyone who gives pro sc2 a go, because only the top 0.1% have a chance to make an honest living off it. I mean casual as in someone who doesn't have big finishes in multiple tournaments.
So, in a remarkable and unexpected twist, the team denies that Mario was not paid, while claiming to append " Bails 2 months worth of pay, and HTOMario's last 3 months of payment. ", of course with no such thing attached to the post... ~_~

They attached it now, it is in german, but I think you get the basics out of it anyway. Bails was payed via paypal, but really late on both of the listed months (24.11, 18.10) When did Bails leave? Anybody have a source maybe?
HTOMarios last payment dates from the 03.01., the other payments, as you can see on the pics are much later into the month. They payer is Anton Pascal, the CEO of LYGF. There is an interview with him and Mori, a german caster: (it is only in german though) The stuff he says about LYGF is rather weird, espcially the part about their Investor, aswell as his opinion about most of the players in EU and NA GM. He claims that he isnt interested in most of them, even if they reach top 30 constantly in GM, but rather goes for koreans directly. I wonder why they contracted players like HTOMario in the first place?
Anyways, the proof LYGF provided here seems legit so far, but it is still rather worrysome, that all bot one payments were serverly delayed and we don't even know if they were payed in full, as the exact amount of money is blacked out.
edit: Just read some /r/starcraft for some drama before going to bed xD Here is a statement of bails:
I don't understand. I can also show pictures. I was told I was going to be on the 15th of each month, and as you can see in the pictures they provided that it wasn't the 15th both times. Here you can see the payment on the 24th http://imgur.com/e1gUGMD Once I received the money I transferred it to my bank account. And this is when he cancels it the next day http://imgur.com/XT3dhEv ..now because I transferred the money that I had in my paypal to my bank I had a negative amount in my Paypal left..also in the midst of this Pascal blocked me on skype making it almost impossible to communicate with him.
Well they deleted the picture but he WAS payed something via western union 03.01. Or they potoshopped it, dunno :D the last payment before that western union transaction according to picture they had linked was at the end of nov via Paypal. I personally would be quite skepitcal about it, just want to share what I saw

400 a month, thats pretty good pay :o
you can't live on $400 a month though lol. Given, that's not what the purpose of his post was XD I was surprised to see that LYGF had such a huge roster last I checked(recent signing) and wondered how they managed to keep such a large roster.

I don't know what it's like in the US but rent itself up here is easily $600 if shared with a roommate. $400 for food and utilities is doable but not if you include rent which was my point.

Easily 600 huh? I'm renting by university of victoria for 400 with high speed internet, laundry, everything. These places are findable if you're willing to live in a closet. It's always going to be easier for the younger generation to chase that dream.
