Back in May, Dota 2 announced the sale of The International 10 Battle Pass, with a portion of the proceeds going to the prize pool of Dota 2's annual competition, The International, popularly known in the gaming community as TI. Within days of the launch of the battle pass, the prize pool for the tournament skyrocketed by a whopping $8 million. The current prize pool has already crossed the $30 million mark, which is the second-largest prize pool for any single tournament in the history of esports. The top spot is held by The International 2019 that had a prize pool of $34,330,068. TI10 (2020) is now expected to raise a prize pool of around $40 million.

The International 2020

The biggest esports tournament for DOTA 2 professional games, The International serves as the culmination of the long qualifying season -  Dota Pro Circuit. The 10th edition of the annual series was initially scheduled for August 18-23 at Ericsson Globe, Stockholm, Sweden. However, in the wake of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, TI10 was delayed. It is expected the tournament will be held in late 2020 or early 2021. Since StarLadder ImbaTV Dota 2 Minor Season 3 concluded in March, four events have been cancelled by Valve (DOTA 2's developers).
