So far, it’s been 17 days since the Dota Battle Pass was released and the Dota community started contributing to the prize pool of TI. However, the TI 2022 Prize Pool seems to be slowing down in a big way – read on as we compare to different years below!
TI 2022 Prize Pool – Still Some Time Left
Ever since 2015, The International has always managed to impress with its prize pool. Accordingly, here’s what the TI 2022 prize pool looks like on Day 17 compared to the other prize pools at the same point in time:
- 2022 – $11,772,017
- 2021 – $14,251,102
- 2019 – $13,910,039
- 2018 – $10,839,682
As you can see, 2022 is lagging behind the two years prior. Bearing this in mind, the community is concerned that this may be the first time TI has failed to increase its prize pool.
Yet, if this is the case, the bar of $40,000,000 from last year is understandably high. Of course, there’s no way you can criticize Valve, except a slight doubt over the growth of competitive Dota 2.
While some argue that the Battle Pass is simply lower quality, others might justify that crowd funding is simply unreliable.
Otherwise, we’ll be keeping up to date to see how it progresses.
