if u take a look at 1 person asking for salary increase seems normal ya? But when an entire 5 or 9 EG players all asking for it AT THE SAME TIME, it becomes 5x and 9x. Lets say each player wants increase of $2,000 per month... thats $10,000 - $18,000 (lets round to $20k) TIMES 12 = $120,000 to $216,000 ($240,000) per year ON TOP of normal salary already earned by player.
TLDR: 1 person salary increase seems fine on paper, but 5 people + is A LOT.
if someone makes 20k a month from playing valorant and they think they DESERVE more… they trully are out of touch with reality.
Brazil’s economy is fucked up but ill make the comparison just so that people know how fucking much this is.
20k USD = ~100k BRL.
minimum wage in BR is 1200 reais per month (roughly 240 USD). The average BR citizen would have to work for years to make what these players get in a month from simply playing valorant.
majority of BR people live with a minimum wage, while providing for their families. Im pretty sure this reality applies to any 2nd and 3rd world countries as well, so please ENJOY your 20k monthly for playing games, do not spit on it and be grateful for the opportunity you had.
