CS major

Do you guys think the Prize money is not fair at all since multiple games are pulling in Millions of viewers, thousands of people come to the arena to watch the games but still it’s overall 1.25mil for prize winnings??

don't want to be like Dota 2 KKKKKK (only care for TI)

These pro's would rather have the trophy and clout of winning more then the prize money that is split 100 different ways

On one hand, for most players even attending this major, the salaries that their orgs pay them make the actual prize money not worth as much.

but yeah it does kinda suck for situations when you have an underdog team like GamerLegion who had a solid chance of winning and probably earning more than 2 years of their salaries (it's only NA that has those huge inflated contract deals)

sticker money is already insane so from players POV its fine

It’s sticker money that matters, not prize money. The CS pros themselves chose to prioritize sticker money over prize pools

There are plenty of 1Mil CS Tournaments throughout the year, so its not a problem, and its to win the major not the money. If they want the cash, the org will pay them plenty
