The International Dota2 tournament to be held July 18-21, 2014 in Seattle now has a purse of $10.3 million. This is larger than the men’s tournament at Wimbledon, or the Preakness, Belmont Stakes and Kentucky Derby combined.
Here’s the current (July 3) breakdown of the prize pool — keep in mind that the teams have at least 5 players. Note the cruel drop from #8 to #9 — not sure why this is so. Anyone out there know? Anyone?
