One of the most prestigious online tournament, The International 2015 Dota 2 Championships, has again ring the bells as Valve announces the dates and venue of the event.
The 5th year of The International will happen almost a year after the previous one. The inclusive days are from August 3, Monday through August 8, Saturday. TI 5 battleground would be on Seattle once again which will include 16 professional teams from around the globe.
Last year, The International 4 has set a jaw-dropping record as the prize pool reached $10,700,000. That's the biggest prize ever on e-Sports history, beating the TI3 record of $2,800,000. As the bar was raised on the previous TI, many will be looking forward on how much the price will be this year. There are massive number of players joining the dota 2 bandwagon every month as seen on their website. If the trend keeps its pace, we will be looking at an eight-digit reward again. And the champions will take home almost half of it!
Further details on the tournament will be announced on the Dota 2 blog soon. We're looking forward to see the new line-ups and great battles on this year's Dota 2 Championships.
