> Porofessor has had 10 million downloads of its app on Overwolf — which is where Porofessor was built — and more than 1.25 million daily active users if you combine traffic both from that platform and its own direct website.

> The company, such as it is, has been around for some ten years, has pretty much always been profitable with revenues of €12.3 million in its last fiscal year.

Pretty cool story for a 1 person show


? It sold for only 4x revenue ?


Maybe the creator thinks it's a bad idea to base their livelihood on LoL for the next four years and would rather have capital to do something else with their time.


That does seem kind of low, but presumably LoL has reached its saturation point so there's no real room for growth?


This is the way.
