I find it baffling that to get exemption you need to win a less prestigious event than the official one. If you won worlds in league of legends you would no get the exemption no matter how many times you won it. Faker won it three times the most anyone has ever won yet as far as i know he still must eventually go to the military. In a way this system robs legendary athletes from one additional year in which they can show they still have it. If you wait one year you might miss your window and no longer have the skills to compete in the guy. Funnily they made a sort of exception in the past for Boxer: https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/BoxeR https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/BoxeR They created a team air force ace in the military so he could still compete in the military. As far as i know they never did anything like this for league.
