New LEC report unveils highest paid player, massive pay gap between roles
A new salary report has pulled back the curtain on the LEC’s financial inner workings, revealing jaw-dropping paychecks for some players—and similarly surprising disparities for others. While some players enjoy hefty salaries, others earn a fraction of those figures.
The report, written by Brieuc “LEC Wooloo” Seeger, is an analysis of all 50 active players in the 2024 Summer and 2025 Winter splits, presenting a comprehensive view of player earnings at the moment. No individual player incomes were disclosed, but the average income for LEC players in the 2025 Winter Split was estimated at approximately 240K Euros, or around 247K USD, as of Jan. 17.
