IceRapt0r1 [#10]yeah i agree if he does its kinda stupid
Not stupid really. College is for long-term investment and he could have a job for the future. Even though he is getting paid a bunch (I assume) on sentinels, this glory won’t last forever and he’s going to need a way to make money

maybe he will need the money but surely you play val and in the future do smth like uni no?
IceRapt0r1 [#3]he says for college in the video
isn't he already set for life?
Twitch streamers with 1k daily viewers get like 25k a month based on the leaks recently

i didnt know that mate obviously then yeah

You need money for uni and rn he is living with his family who are taking care of him. When he gets older and moves on, its going to be very expensive to take care of uni and cost of living
ctabust [#2]hell no why would young blud retire at 19
Bad idea to leave for college right now if it was true. He needs to milk his pro career while hes still good and save money. College can wait.

He's a millionaire bro...wtf are you guys on about..lmao

Why not keep playing val while he is in his prime for the next 5 years. Get loads of money then start uni at 25. Isnt that better? Also he probably made more money than anyone on his family rn.

he is making like 50k per month
He's saying he will think about it and there's no harm I thinking, u know he may actually wanna go to college and do some other thing but I can guarantee unless he really fricking likes that thing when next year he's gonna see the offers coming to him(if they win champs ) like the big bags , all these side ideas will be dropped in the fraction of a second
Ngl he's goated I do think he is the closest guy in Americas that can surpass aspas in the 2-3 year future
MuZe [#12]Understandable, he's already won masters, if he wins champs then that's a good point to end it on cause college is more important than being a pro since this job might not even exist 5 years from now
And how do u know that mate? As long as I can think CSGO existed for like a decade in eSports right, a game like LOL whose eSports started in 2009 is the biggest eSports right now, what do u say about that??
IceRapt0r1 [#10]yeah i agree if he does its kinda stupid
ur right bro, idk how braindead this whole site is to disagree with u

Nothing, that wasn't the point, esports is an unstable career that's all. Not to mention with meta changes and circumstances of the game, there is no gurantee he will stay the same player he is and always be on a high salary team.

Yeah obviously esports is unstable highly, completely agreeable, and fact that he may not be on a high salary team for all time is also agreeable, but if practically thinking he goes to university now by retiring he will study for five years spend out a lot of money and then has to find a job in our current unstable market as well, while he's currently making big bucks so it's better to continue atleast for the time being and then look at uni a little later but he can still retire not considered any of this if he's just bored now and there's something in university that he really wanna study

no? I'm pretty sure twitch streamers with 1k daily viewers and no other sources of revenue don't make anywhere near 25k a month
kanyefan4238173 [#33]ur right bro, idk how braindead this whole site is to disagree with u
it's funny how people think Zekken is just getting unpaid. He's getting champs split of skin sales, twitch revenue, stream revenue, any brand partnership such as zowie or whatever else they are partnered up with, and he is also getting prize winnings. The great part about all of this is that his org is covering most of his expenses, such as flights, housing, etc.

could you please link these 'leaks'?
I have no idea where you heard that, viewership is hardly even where the actual money is in streaming. Sure, ads make money, but subs are what feed people and make 'careers'.
imo, he should probs go for a reliable degree in something practical. Streaming ain't a career, it's a side-hustle, with some exceptions.
