The Dota 2 International 2014 tournament prize pool has surpassed the $6 million mark. With such a large, rising, fortune on the line, we wanted to discuss what the biggest prize pool in the history of competitive gaming means for eSports.
In this conversation, aside from mentioning how insane it is that the prize pool reached $6M in less than two weeks thanks to crowd funding and seeding money from Valve, we wonder about how crowd funded tournaments may impact the future.
We also discuss whether or not a having a huge prize pool on the line legitimizes playing games for a living, and if other tournaments are going to need to start upping the ante.
