And yes, I’m also really excited regarding the fact that if the percentage distribution of the prize fund remains the same as it was last year, and the prize fund is 3 million, then an employee of a Russian-language studio, without taking into account the sales of his bundle, will receive more than the player who borrows top 7-8 at the World Championship for 20 teams. <...>

With bundles, I think someone can overtake the champion. Although judging by past years, purchasing power is probably lower now due to inflation and the crisis.
In general, I don’t care, but it’s still funny :DDDDD

According to calculations by the editors of Cybersport.ru, The International 2023 casters can actually earn more than the tournament participants. You can read more regarding this in the material.

The International 2023 prize pool is replenished through the sale of the compendium and its levels – 25% of each purchase is added to the $1.6 million provided by Valve. In terms of growth rates, the upcoming tournament lags behind all previous championships in the series since 2013.

The International 2023 will take place from October 12 to 29 in Seattle, USA. 20 teams from six regions will compete at the championship: Eastern Europe will be represented by 9Pandas, Team Spirit, BetBoom Team and Virtus.pro. You can view the tournament schedule in the report.
