#190 Eleague Boston Major in CS2 General Discussion
ghadilliSpaceCadetand also, for players like those on FaZe, Brady and Jordan are applicable comparisons.

Here's the reason why I think you are wrong:

current CSGO winnings for the losing team:
rain - 384K
Karrigan - 527K
niko - 380K
Guardian - 499K
Olof - 607K

From what I can find Brady is at 197 Million for his whole career.

If Brady losses the superbowl, he basically only misses out on a bonus. Winning teams gets 107K per player, Losing team gets 51K. So Brady losses 56K and that's like 0.03% of his total earnings as a professional. (so Brady would likely care less about that money)

Losing that major, Rain and Niko lost 18% of their entire professional earnings, Guardian, Karrigan and Olof lost around 13%. There is a D Lineman on the patriots, Eric Lee, who made 263K this season. You think the 56K bonus means anything to him? 21% of his pro earnings in 1 game. If you think all that is peanuts then I dunno what to say.

You can't tell me missing out on 70K has nothing to do with these kids lives when its 13-18% of your income as a pro.
In the moment, losing the match/title is the worst thing ever and foremost on their minds, that is natural for any losing person/team. There are plenty of cases where winning the title is better than the money, I just don't think its universal for every player.

To just say its all about winning, I just can't accept that at a professional level until you reach truly incredible money levels. Until then, winning and getting paid go hand in hand IMO.

ghadilliSpaceCadetghadilliSpaceCadetLooks like 100K each for first place and 30K each for 2nd place finish.
Pretty big difference in prize money, I'd be holding my head in my hands too if I finished 2nd.

it's not about the money man, it's about winning a fucking major

I disagree to a point. Sure winning the major is a very huge thing but playing professionally is about making money and getting paid as well. You can't just discount the prize money or else why have prizes at all?

do you think that Michael Jordan played for the money? Or Tom Brady? Or hell, even b4nny? at this level, money is secondary to being the best in the world.

First off, comparing this to ppl like Jordan or Brady is irrelevant. and yes, when they became professional, it was about the money and getting paid. They have contracts.

Secondly, I never said anything about the money being more important than winning the major. If you can spot that, point it out to me, cause other wise its about reading comprehension on your part.

I specifically said winning and getting paid are both factors in playing professionally. I never said anything about one being more important.

This is like the exact reason ppl give b4nny shit and dislike him. Its a fucking meaningless ultiduo game, he gets taunt killed and just can't laugh it off like a normal person enjoying a video game. "I'm like nowhere near that either". Hes just always "on" all the time and its so unhealthy. Really wish he would not be like this all the time cause his stream is awesome and lots of new players watch him.

maelstrahmur 40 years old and still play tf2 with ppl half ur age

whos the one that needs help

You got me there, I've been a gamer all my life and will probably never stop. If there is something wrong with that, then I'm guilty.

I get that you hate me for whatever reason and I am 100% fine with you hating me. There is no need for you to keep saying anything on every post I make that's TF2 related, move on bud.

maelstrahmSpaceCadetThis crap is the type of shit you complain about in scrims, not matches. If you need to cap last to win rounds, you need to make it happen yourself instead of bitching about the other team not creating the opportunity for you.

Unless the other team did blatant actions that are considered taboo or bad sportsmanship, I don't see a problem. I watched some of the match and it seemed fine but I did miss the first half.

i will never take anything u say seriously, u white supremacist trash

Sounds like you need some help kid

#10 open letter to everyone who lies about damage in The Dumpster

Its easy, just call your target has 1 health when you want your team to focus something :)
I know so many scouts in this community that would switch servers just to go for that stat padding kill instead of doing something team related that has more impact.

#265 NFL 2017-2018 THREAD in Off Topic
DreamboatSpaceCadetIs it wrong to want the Eagles to lose so the sports writers and TV personalities talk about the Philadelphia Flyers instead of the Eagles for 2 weeks?

btw, I live in Philly

No. Wanting the media to focus on hockey is always a good reason.

ok good, Hockey is a superior sport anyways and the Flyers are really hot right now. :)
