    “You don’t come to Falcons because of the money”

    Could i have tldr from that? I ain’t clicking that gambling ad disguised as news site.

  3. Aware-Cut5688

    We have the 2nd highest payroll team

  4. EDYSTERi

    Yeah, I bet it’s the legendary status that Falcons have as a stable and long standing organization that attracts all the players. Just delusional to come out with a statement like this when we have seen players leave stable and competitive teams for them without knowing the actual roster.

    Oh please do tell, how much money other teams give to their players, and compare that to NiKo and m0nesy.

    :grabs popcorn:

    It can mean almost anything. Org as a whole? CS division? The team + staff? Just the players? I can’t think of a team that would (potentially) pay players more. Vitality? Faze? Spirit when accounted for all 50 academy teams? Navi because of simple? In all other cases I can believe that there are teams with bigger staff and personnel behind the teams than Falcons.

    We don’t know exact numbers of course, but Niko surely didn’t change teams for peanuts and I doubt that other players (Heroic trio) agreed to play in such stressful environment for nothing or close to what they earned in Heroic

    That’s definitely something someone overpaying salaries would say.

  8. Performensch

    Yeah, lets believe the manager of a team that doesn’t even disclose where there money is coming from about how much they spend …

  9. So_Vegetable5744

    And quite obviously this is bullshit.

    How does the manager know every payroll of the other teams?

  11. Hahaha sure brother. The blood money org that got declined T1 league access in Valorant because they wouldnt disclose where their money comes is not the one with the highest salaries.

  12. Charrua_gamer

    Yeah… the shady, inauthentic org running on blood money has zero real leverage to attract players. Hell I bet they even made him say that for a bonus..shit non ethical org 😅

    havin a lie Mr. Falcons manager, haven’t we?

    It’s true, I think there are at least a few NBA teams that have higher salaries.

    Trying to genuinely think who could have a higher payroll (only talking about the main CS team ECT… Otherwise it’s just nonsense)

    Vitality actually could have a massive bill for players. Zywoo, Ropz and Apex should all be on top dollar and actually Flamez might be too. Only one who can’t command a massive salary is Mezzi but I don’t think he is cheap. But I really struggle to imagine the coaching staff earning even close to Zonic and Lars.

    Faze might have a high payroll due to just lack of attention. The team seems to self manage so maybe they just have high salaries that have never come down from their peak. But I doubt to to be honest. Again, the coaching staff just isn’t paid as high it can’t be.

    Sprit maybe pay a lot to Shiro and Donk, surely not the rest. And they are Russian so I would be surprised if it’s as high

    Why would you even address it if you not gonna say anything substantial in your defense? Kassad got him good with that casual HTPM drop, moved in rent free.
