all ~1m$ cs events in 2023,and on top of that major stickers generate abut 70m a year to orgs and players
val players really hype up having 3 events a year and managing to make the prizepool higher than 1m hahaha
(also dont forget there's plenty 200-500k events too)
the bum of valorant just cant stop disappointing with the shittiest takes ever
