Not only traditional sports, but also electronic sports has an obvious fact that the more talented and famous pro-players, the higher the salary. Recently, QQ has pointed out the players who are thought to have a super -huge salary in the LPL area.
Top eSports is one of the most expensive organizations in this area when it is constantly paying to the members' salary number is not low. After a series of controversy, the Chinese news site still confirmed that Knight pocketed 45 million yuan (152 billion VND) at the time of TES. While Jackkeylove is currently paid by TES for a fairly generous salary of about 19 million yuan/1 year (equivalent to 64 billion VND). In South Korea, the salary of the Demon King Faker is converted to about 35 million yuan (120 billion VND) and is not equal to the former TES star.
Besides, Thesis at WBG pocketed about 30 million yuan/year (101 billion VND). More significantly must be the case of Uzi when the legendary RNG brought in the shock of 105 million yuan/year (507 billion VND). Although these are exaggerated figures and are not really firm, but still more than the award of the World Champion 2022 DRX. While the Blue Dragon only received less than 500 thousand USD (about 11 billion VND), the LPL players only need 1 year to have the amount more than the new king.
Also according to QQ, the reason that LPL players own such a large salary is because the contract between the host team and the players is very complicated. Accordingly, the number they receive is not only in the competition role, but also includes livestream, participating in other contracts. However, these numbers are still too big when compared to LEC or LCS players, showing a clear difference in terms of salaries between regions in the world.
