‘The International’: The Winners From Every TI

Every Dota 2 global champion has been revisited for The International 10th anniversary. It is apparent that Valve and the community have worked hard for many years to make this goal a reality by looking at the total prize money for the tournament. 

Internationally, what type of organization is it, and what is it all about, to begin with?

Dota 2’s annual global championship tournament, where the best teams battle for the title and one of the most valuable prize pools in esports.Total prize money for  the international ti  competition this year is $40,018,195; the winner will get $18,208,300. At some point in their career, Dota 2 players want to win the TI tournament.

One of Valve’s yearly tournaments is known as the International or TI. In 2015, Valve launched the Dota Major Championships, which features The International as one of their tournaments. The International is the most well-known and the largest of the main championship contests.

At the Gamescom trade fair in Cologne, Germany, Dota 2’s first International was hosted to show off the game to the globe. Gamers were intrigued by the $1.6 million USD prize pool, which included $1 million for the winner. At the end, there were 16 teams remaining.

After moving to Seattle in 2012, no one had ever seen The International before. The $1.6 million USD total prize money is unchanged. A total of 14 teams were invited, with an extra two spots reserved for the champions of regional qualifying competitions.

Starting in 2013, Dota 2 players will be able to compete for cash prizes. Cash and awards totaled $2.8 million during the International 2013. As of this writing, the 2016 prize pool is valued at $20 million, whereas the 2014 prize pool is at $10 million.

The International was held in Vancouver, Canada, for the first time following six years in Seattle. The International 2019 in Shanghai, China, has a record $34 million prize pool, which surpassed the International 2020 in Los Angeles, which will be held in 2020.

For reasons related to the COVID-19 epidemic, the International 10 has been postponed until 2021. An event in Sweden scheduled for 2019 was moved to Bucharest, Romania owing to worries about regulatory compliance.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, TI10 was postponed and awarded to Team Spirit instead. For the first time ever, a Russian team won the Aegis of Immortality after defeating Paris Saint-Germain. In the end, LGD prevailed 3-2. The $40 million prize pool for TI10 set a new esports record for the most money ever awarded in a single tournament.
