Dota 2 players are throwing their wallets at Valve. Less than three days after the release of Dota 2 Battle Pass<\/a>, The International 10’s prize pool has reached $10 million.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

This is quite a bit faster than previous years, and most of the prize pool comes from crowdfunding via Battle Pass and related purchases.<\/p>\n

The International 10 prize pool<\/h2>\n

The International 10 prize pool has shown incredible growth. Valve provided a base prize pool of $1.6 million, and everything else comes from the wallets of Dota 2 players.<\/p>\n

What makes this even more impressive is only 25% of the purchases go into the prize pool, and 75% goes to Valve. <\/p>\n
