The International 2017 prize pool shatters TI6 record



The International 2017 prize pool has now officially broken the TI6 record - currently standing at $20, 772, 353 with 32 days still left for fans to contribute much more to the last total.

Because of the Dota 2 community’s contributions and the majority recently the Battle Level Bundle released on May 4th, the TI7 prize pool is now the biggest single award for the esports event. At 15 : 00 CEST, on July 12, The International 2017 prize pool has reached $20, 772, 353. The community has contributed a staggering 1198. 27% total increase.

If we take away the $1, 600, 000 Valve chipped in, we’re left with more than $19, 172, 353 raised from the community. However, only 25% from the proceeds of each and every Battle Pass sale is added as much as the TI7 prize pool. Therefore, the Dota 2 community has actually spent over $76 million on TI7 Battle Passes and levels.

The TI7 prize pool tracker provides real-time hourly and daily comparison graphs. This year’s prize has gradually grown with a faster pace than last year’s fund.

Along with dwarfing most esports tournaments prize funds, last year'sTI6 prize pool had even surpassed the prizes of well-known traditional sporting events, such like the Cricket World Cup, The Super Bowl, the NBA Finals, among others. Last year it was eventually estimated the ‪‎esports‬ market was expected to pass the $1 billion mark in 2017. ‪‎Dota2‬’s contribution towards the market size is undeniable and continues to destroy expectations.
