E-sport competitions have grown in popularity over the years, with big checks rewarding the winners. While Fortnite held the previous record in the field, DOTA 2 eclipses the title of Epic Games with a monstrous prize pool put into play for its international competition.
For the ninth edition, from The International, 18 teams will compete in DOTA 2 for ten days. The tournament organized by Valve will once again be the most lucrative in history with an astronomic kitty that the winners will have to share. This new record even eclipses the huge amount planned for the Fortnite World Cup that will take place from July 26 to 28.
A price that makes you want to become a professional player!
For example, The International currently has a prize pool of more than $ 30.3 million. It should be noted that, as in previous editions, it is the community that pays a large part of this reward through crowdfunding. Valve also goes to checkout as a quarter of the revenue generated by DOTA 2's " Battle Pass " is returned to the prize pool of the competition. It is possible to follow the evolution of the prize pool by going to this address. The International will begin August 20, 2019, in Shanghai. Epic Games
will undoubtedly react very soon with Fortnite to beat the record now held by DOTA 2.
