I think it's funny and this is exactly what I was thinking about when I saw MCs haircut. Looks like the glorious leader's nephew or sth like that. Hope theres a chance that MC will cast a couple of matches together with the english casters. Edit: they just mentioned that MC is already there. | ||

Probably the same reason why no one has bigass profile pictures and images in their signatures. | ||

Just get the education later instead of earlier. | ||

Well do not forget about taxes, travel expenses, rent... and afaik he bought his mom a car. He has a financial pillow that's for sure but he's far from beeing "well off for the rest of his life". | ||

Do you really believe that? MC wouldn't be well off for the rest of his life if he retired right now. | ||

Then there's Incontrol, Nightend, and Qxc. SC2 needs more of this than super serious casting! | ||

According to aligulac MC made just under $500k in prize money in his career. Probably a good percentage of that disappeared into the taxman's pockets. That's enough to set yourself up with a cozy little home (I think, I don't know the housing prizes in Korea), but it's hardly enough to set yourself up for the rest of your life. | ||

He got warned because he posted a meme which is a rule that has been enforced pretty much over most of TL. I am curious as to why that is a rule. I don't doubt there is a good reason; I am just curious. Best I can imagine is that it doesn't add anything new or that it makes things neater and easier to read? Thank you for responding to the question regarding why he was warned. | ||

I was already concerned about political correctness In my opinion unjust and part of some draconian rule set enforced blindly sometimes. It was related to the topic, funny and honestly i didn't even know it was a meme (but im not down with the kids so...) On topic, OP says its temp, but this makes sense from both party's sides. MC isnt stealing foreigner tournament money any more, but plays the game to a very high level and has an entertaining personality, 2 facets to great casting. Temp try outs in code A and if it goes well who knows? | ||

I had a look at his earnings on Liquipedia and taking into consideration maybe another 100K not recorded for the public eye to see, MC is not financially well off for the rest of his life. He's 24, not 65. He played SC2 for 5 years and shorter before that in BW. He had to forgo education at the tertiary level. Pro gamers are good at the games they play but academically, they're probably dumb as a rock. He's not Polt. If he chooses to go back to school, that's gonna cost him big time. | ||
