According to the influencer\u2019s estimate, tier-1 players can earn from $10,000 to $25,000 per month. In this context, tier-1 means not just a well-known organization, but a team that consistently reaches the playoffs of major tournaments and regularly plays against the strongest opponents.<\/p>\n
At the tier-2 level, salaries are already significantly lower \u2014 around $4,000\u20138,000. Tier-3 is estimated at $500\u20132,500, which shows the sharp gap between teams that truly fight for major trophies and rosters that remain in the zone of qualifiers, mid-level leagues, and unstable tournament performances.<\/p>\n
VALORANT: region strongly affects payments<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn VALORANT, the salary structure looks more regional. According to the estimates given, players in Challenger leagues can earn around $500\u20132,000, while in franchised leagues the sums are much higher. VCT Americas is estimated at $10,000\u201312,000, VCT EMEA at $8,000\u201310,000, and VCT China at $6,000\u20138,000.<\/p>\n
An interesting detail is that in VALORANT, salary can depend not only on the strength of the team or the player\u2019s status, but also on the region of residence and the tax burden. In other words, the same \u201cnet\u201d value of a player for an organization may look different in a contract depending on where exactly they compete and what expenses the club takes on.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/55059871514_224e65dbba_k.jpg\")

The average level, according to the influencer\u2019s estimate, is around $500\u2013900 per month. This shows that even a popular mobile discipline does not always guarantee players big contracts if the market of a specific region does not yet have enough major clubs and sponsorship money.<\/p>\n
At the same time, there are exceptions. According to the data given, Yandex Team may pay around $1,500, while Spirit pays around $2,500. But the word \u201cexceptions\u201d is key here: in most cases, MLBB in the region does not yet compete with salaries in top PC disciplines, where even the average level can be higher than the upper limit of the mobile scene.<\/p>\n
Superstars live in a separate economy<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe topic of the highest-paid CS players stands separately. According to rumors, NiKo may earn around $100,000 per month, while ZywOo may earn around \u20ac100,000. These figures should be treated specifically as unofficial estimates, but even in this form, they clearly show how strongly superstar salaries break away from the average market.<\/p>\n
This is no longer just payment for individual rating or number of frags. For clubs, such players mean sporting results, media presence, merch sales, sponsor appeal, and the organization\u2019s status. That is why top names can cost several times more even than very strong players from teams in lower ranking ranges.<\/p>\n\n
