Since 2024 is coming to an end, we decided to look at the ranking of cash prize payouts by eSports disciplines and teams. Information taken from the portal EsportsEarnings and it is quite likely that it does not reflect the real situation with prize payments, but you can trace the approximate values.
In the top prizes by country, players from the Russian Federation were able to take third place, significantly behind players from China and the USA. But the players from South Korea lagged behind by only 350 thousand dollars and ultimately took fourth place.
Among the disciplines, the leader was MOBA DOTA 2 with a total payout of $23,816,354.83. And this is against the backdrop of the fact that the prize fund of The International 2024 showed a ten-year minimum. Team shooter Counter-Strike 2 takes second place with $20.5 million. Thus, two games from Valve top the ranking in of total prize payouts for the year.
Team Falcons tops the ranking of the most financially successful organizations. And Team Liquid trails by $2 million, despite the fact that players from this organization have won the most tournaments in 2024.
