The most successful player in SC2 history (in terms of income) made just short of 100 000 USD a year. Most other progamers very likely make a lot less. The hours they have to put in to stay on top likely exceed those in most common jobs by far. Going to university and getting a "real job" still looks like the easier path to making a living, even for those with enough talent for a gaming career. They also get paid salary and they get money from streaming. Also you really should not be comparing the money you get from competing to what you get from working. Be it sports or esports people do it for the passion, not the money. Nobody should ever start competing in anything just for the money. | ||

Never been a particular fan of his playstyle, but I never wrote him out as a candidate for 1st place in any tournament he stepped into, either. I'll always remember GSL season 3, when he was supposed to sweep it all out to be then stopped by Jinro, unexpectedly. Four years later he retires after having achieved like basically no one else in Sc2 except for a few selected superhumans.  Random memories that went through my mind just before clicking on the "post" button: -MC eating something disgusting (iirc Nutella-based) at Homestory Cup -Various attics like smashing some kind of dojo board at the old GOM studio, the Murloc suit and he saying "bitch please" (which didn't struck me that much since Fruitdealer had done something similar at an IEM, iirc) -The brief moment when he and Huk were actually tied in PvP prowess -MC vs Idra on Metalopolis at some of the early MLGs... on a retrospect I feel that Idra had all the rights to be pissed off with the Protoss race during that time. -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsXdjSj7jbc -MC catching a thief in France -More experienced users will correct me if I'm wrong, but if I recall correctly some progamer had said that MC was actually a real bro and went to give money to someone in need. Maybe during his stay at the oGs house? -His cute girlfriend ...man, I've written that I'm not that much of a fan of his play, but the longer I write, the longer I realise how he was influential in my personal Sc2 fanboyish experience. Godspeed, Jang Min Chul, the Starcraft scene won't be the same without you and your wagons of money/trophies. | ||

Was it MC who called Goody "Supply block terran"?  We could do with more of that kind of creativity in the scene. | ||
