So, How Much Do LEC Players Earn?
所以LEC选手赚多少钱呢？
LEC player salaries are typically discussed on a yearly basis, which is fitting
since all players are currently signed to annual contracts ranging from one to a
maximum of four years.
基本上是算年薪的
合约是一年到四年不等
Riot Games' LEC rulebook sets the minimum wage for players at €60,000 — but mo
st players earn more than this base amount.
LEC的底薪是6万欧元
但大部分选手都领超过底薪
On the other hand, no LEC player has earned a seven-figure salary since the star
t of 2024, reflecting the downward trend in salaries over the past three years.
但LEC薪资近三年一直下滑
从2024年后就没有人薪资超过100万欧元了
According to data collected by Sheep Esports, the average salary for LEC players
in 2025 is €240,000. In comparison, the estimated average for summer 2024 was
€270,000, marking €30,000 (11%) decrease since the last split. This figure acc
ounts only for players on the active roster of an LEC team.
根据Sheep Esports收集到的数据
2025年LEC均薪是24万欧元
2024年大概是27万欧元
等于又下滑了11%
A Closer Look at Average Salaries
近一步来看均薪
While the average salary is estimated at €240,000, the median salary for LEC pl
ayers starting in the Winter Split 2025 is estimated at €165,000 (±€10,000).
薪资的中位数是落在16.5万欧元
Rookie players entering the LEC in 2025 earn an average of €115,000 annually.
2025年新加入的新人均薪是11.5万欧元
For players who signed contracts with new LEC teams in 2025, the average annual
salary is estimated at €170,000.
今年转队选手均薪17万欧
Korean players in the LEC, meanwhile, earn an average salary of €160,000 per ye
ar.
韩援均薪16万欧元

Highest Paid LEC Players
那谁是LEC最高薪选手呢？
According to data collected by Sheep Esports, midlaner Rasmus "Caps" Borregaard
Winther is currently the highest-paid player in the LEC.
最高薪的是Caps
Behind him, Steven "Hans Sama" Liv, Marek "Humanoid" Brázda, Emil "Larssen" Lar
sson, and Javier "Elyoya" Prades Batalla — in no particular order — round out
the top five. A few other players are positioned just below these top-tier salar
ies.
接下来是这四位
Hans Sama
Humanoid
Larssen
Elyoya
各路均薪

上路 19.2万欧元（-23%）
打野 25.0万欧元（-5%）
中路 34.5万欧元（-3.5%）
下路 24.0万欧元（-18%）
辅助 16.8万欧元（-32%）
先发五人薪资花费排行

That said, the average annual budget for an LEC team is approximately €1.2 mill
ion, with the top three spenders accounting for 45% of the league's total spendi
ng.
LEC平均一队一年预算是120万欧元

但前三高的队伍就占了LEC总花费的45%了
Sporting Financial Regulations (SFR)
薪资规定
The Sporting Financial Regulations (SFR), introduced by Riot Games for the 2024
season, aim to prevent teams from overspending.
This regulation operates similarly to a salary cap but with a threshold, beyond
which teams must pay a fee equal to 50% of the excess amount.
超过薪资上限的部分要缴50%的税
If a team exceeds the designated threshold by 150%, they must pay 100% of the ex
cess to the LEC.
超出上限的150%的话
会触发更高的100%税率
According to a report by Blix.gg in October 2023, later confirmed by sources to
Sheep Esports, this threshold is currently set at €2 million annually (approxim
ately €400,000 per player).
目前设立的薪资上限是200万欧元
It’s important to note that contracts signed before the 2024 season, which are
still in effect, are exempt from this limit.
但2024年以前，也就是薪资上限开始实施前签的合约
能获得豁免
Why Are Salaries Going Down?
为何薪资开始下降？
The primary reason for the ongoing downtrend in salaries is a market correction
following an economic bubble in esports, which peaked in 2021.
最主要原因是电竞的泡泡破了（高峰在2021年）
During this period, many venture capitalists and private companies saw esports o
rganizations as speculative investments, pouring money into them with expectatio
ns of continued growth. As a result, some LEC organizations overspent, far excee
ding their actual revenue.
那之前许多风险投资者和私营公司
投入大量资金，期望行业能持续增长
结果一些LEC队伍就大幅超支
远远超过了其实际收入
However, there are additional factors contributing to salary reductions in 2025.
According to French media L'Équipe, teams have signed a new agreement with Rio
t Games, known as the Team Participation Agreement (TPA).
此外LEC队伍和拳头签了一份新的协议
One significant change in this agreement is a reduction in guaranteed revenue sh
aring from Riot Games to LEC teams, beginning in 2025. Revenue sharing has been
a major component of team income.
协议中有写从2025年开始，战队分润会减少
而分润又是战队主要的收入来源
EU vs NA
欧洲 vs 北美
For years, the offseason was a tense period for EU fans. The North American regi
ons, which experienced an even bigger surge during the esports bubble, were able
to offer extremely attractive salaries.
身为电竞泡泡炒更大的北美
以前能开出比欧洲更高的薪资
High-profile deals, such as the 2021 C9 Perkz deal communicated at €11.75 milli
on due to Cloud9's announcement video (not that this includes a large buyout to
G2 and a salary spread over three years) or the TSM SwordArt deal worth $6 milli
on over two years, were some of the most notable examples. These types of offers
prompted top EU talent to move to the LCS
例如2021年C9给Perkz的1175万欧元大约（转队费+三年薪水）
或是蛇蛇的600万镁
这肿等级的合约让北美挖了欧洲很多人
However, the so-called "esports winter" has hit North America harder than expect
ed, a trend that has often been overlooked. While not yet complete, data collect
ed by Sheep Esports indicates that the average salary for LTA North Conference t
eams in 2025 is lower than the average salary in the LEC.
但北美泡泡现在破了
根据Sheep Esports 收集到的数据
2025年美洲LTA赛区均薪已经低于LEC了
This marks the end of NA salaries being higher and signals a reversal of trends.
Notably, Midlaner Joseph "Jojopyun" Pyun became the first-ever NA player to joi
n an LEC team, and he may not be the last.
北美薪资比欧洲高的时代已结束了
