Ever wondered how much money tier-1 Counter-Strike professional players earn? Thanks to ropz, we might have a pretty good idea. Robin set up a company to receive all the profits from his career, including salary, prize money and profit from in-game item sales. Thanks to Estonian laws, this data is transparent.

Reddit user Antichraldo found the newest report submitted by the company ropz owns. From their observation, ropz made 1.123 million euros last year, which roughly equals 1.22 million US dollars. As all of this money comes from the US, it is impossible to distinguish between in-game sticker sales and his profits from FaZe Clan, including salary and prize money.

However, if we count strictly prize money from the tournaments, the Estonian player should have earned around $474 thousand, but this is before different taxes. Also, different tournament organisers have different payment deadlines, so some money might be missing. Nonetheless, that means Ropz has made around $750,000 in salary and sticker sales. For now, we are unlikely to get more exact numbers and estimations, but that is more than enough.
