Do KPL teams make money? For the small partners who like to watch the king of glory e-sports competition, I believe they will be more interested in this problem. For this problem, players who often watch KPL events may have a certain say, we all know that whether it is a KPL or a world championship game, there is a tournament prize money, as long as your KPL team has good results and can achieve better results in the competition, such as the eStar team, which has won two consecutive championships (autumn competition and challenger cup), so it has a generous competition bonus. And in addition to the game bonus, what else do KPL teams rely on to make money? Are the KPL teams that don't make a lot of money?
For these questions of players, as the most popular player in the former KPL, Atai revealed some key information to fans in his live broadcast room, Atai said: Whether it is a team with poor results or a team with low popularity, as long as it is a KPL team, no team is not profitable, speaking of this, there may be some small partners who want to ask a question: It is understandable that popular teams such as eStar can make a lot of money, but what is their source of income like those teams with poor popularity? After all, raising a KPL team requires huge expenses, you need to pay the players, and then, the players' food, clothing, housing, and travel expenses, how to fill these expenses?
Atai was a former member of the XQ team, and as a former KPL veteran, he still knows a little about how KPL is profitable. Atai said in the live broadcast room that as long as it is a KPL team, it is all profitable, but some teams earn more and some teams earn less. Atai revealed a key message in the live broadcast room: the KPL alliance will give each KPL team a certain subsidy every year, according to the meaning of Atai, this subsidy should not be low, it is estimated that without alliance subsidies, many KPL teams may face disintegration, but once the team disintegrates, in the long run, it is also a loss for the alliance.
In addition to subsidies, there is also the signing fee of the team, which I believe many players should know that the management of the KPL team will sign its own team to a live broadcast platform, which is also a lot of income for the team. If your team has more popular players, these players can also receive various commercials, and the team can also get a part of it.
To sum up, under normal circumstances, KPL teams are profitable, and the team income is mainly league subsidies, event bonuses, team live signing fees, and advertising fees for team players. As for why some of the senior management of the team choose to sell their own teams, the author guesses that the club's capital chain is broken, such as the previous TS team, there have been players who owe wages!
However, the author still has a question, I don't know if you know the answer in front of the screen?
As we said earlier, KPL teams will receive subsidies from the alliance every year, so like Zhang Daxian's XYG team and MTG and other temporary seat teams, in the strict sense, they are not KPL teams, then, will the league give temporary seat teams subsidies every year? Of course, for the super popular anchor Zhang Daxian, it is not difficult to raise a KPL team, after all, Daxian has tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars in income every year, and MTG is different. Do you have anything to say about that?
