$ 20 million , they definitely do have a budged of several millions at their disposal . Given that they don ’ t have to spend a good portion of that on a LCS-Spot , that ’ s already a huge plus . In eSports terms , the salaries PSG should be able to offer , should be around the top 5 within the LCS , not even Challenger Scene . At the moment , this is speculation of course , but based on reports and YellowStar ’ s recent AMA nonetheless . The fact that an organization intends to challenge the EU LCS ’ s norms in terms of salaries , is great news for the region as a whole : Europe is consistently losing talented players to North America , not because the weather is nicer over there , but due to much higher salaries – PSG might change this sooner rather than later . More competition in the market usually results in better salaries for the players .
Lastly , let ’ s talk a bit of Fifa : With Agge Rosenmeier and Lucas “ DaXe ” Cuillerier , PSG have signed two massively talented players , one of which already has two World Cup titles under his belt . As of the writing of this article , DaXe has already managed to grab his first World Cup title . Like in League of Legends , PSG doesn ’ t seem to fondle around , but is right on track for big things to come .
With every step along the line , Paris Saint-Germain shows that they ’ ve done their homework and aced it : Joining the Challenger Scene and working yourself up the League rather than trying to buy yourself into the top league , convincing one of the biggest veterans within eSports to become your Head of Esports and generally showing that they greatly care about combining the world of football with eSports , all shows that PSG means business . Every breath you make , every step you take , I ’ ll be watching you .
Bonjour PSG . Bienvenue dans le monde de eSports . Bon séjour .
