Well, Dota 2 Battle Pass owners get something out of it, if the prize pool reaches certain milestones.<\/p>\n<p>If this year&#8217;s prize pool breaks the TI9 number, Battle Pass owners get 10,000 Battle Points (10 levels). If the prize pool reaches the &#36;40 million milestone, Battle Pass owners get another 10,000 Battle Points.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that The International 10 has been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time of writing, there is no official date for the annual Dota 2 esports event, which normally takes place in August.<\/p>\n<p>The prize pool usually continues to grow until the grand finals take place, so we might just see a &#36;40 million prize pool this year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The growth spurt in the past several days could be because of the Queen of Pain Arcana, which released on 12th June.
