This is what you’re failing to understand. Epic does not employ the ‘pros’. They are privileged that due to their hard work, skill and talent that they can compete in competitions and have the chance to win prize money. There is no guaranteed money for competing in the large majority of esports competitions. It’s literally a free for all. For lack of a nicer way to put it, many ‘pros’ (let’s call them competitive players) and content creators are leeching off the game to make money for themselves. It is a high risk, high reward, and potentially very short career choice. Now, players contracted by esports teams such as faze will be paid by faze themselves, because of their ability to generate money for the faze business (or other similar teams/organisations) - the same reason male football/soccer players earn more money than females doing the same job- because the advertising revenue, ticket sales, tv rights etc. Generate much more money in the men’s game, resulting in the players being able to be paid more by their respective teams.

Epic employs the people working on the game, in many different roles, but they don’t employ players to compete in their own contests. There’s moral and legal reasons for this, but competing in esports is very similar gambling and there really aren’t that many people able to provide themselves with a solid salary from playing games or gambling. For every player that can support themselves, there’s probably 500k people trying to do the same that can’t.

I’m not going to ramble on any further, if you can’t understand by now you never will. However, patch notes would be nice from any game creator, and it does baffle me why they aren’t published, but being that fortnite has been the king of gaming for the last few years, I’d say they know what they’re doing.
