The International 2022 has officially concluded and so too has Part I of the 2022 Dota 2 <\/em>Battle Pass. This means that players are currently gaining access to a revamped Diretide event, new items, and more content that were previously locked\u2014and all it cost was a historic esports streak.<\/p>
As Part I of the battle pass concluded on Nov. 2, the TI11 prize pool was also finalized. And, while the community and Valve managed to pump up the numbers in the final days, the total prize pool still didn\u2019t even crack $19 million. <\/p>
By the end of Part I the TI11 prize pool officially settled at $18,930,775, meaning a total of $17,330,775 contributed to the usual base of $1.6 million. That was all pulled from 25 percent of the total battle pass purchases made between Sept. 1 and Nov. 2 and it was nowhere near enough to keep Valve\u2019s 10-year even streak alive. <\/p>
Now, $19 million is by no means a small total, but it does put TI11 as the first iteration of TI since the original event not to surpass its predecessor’s total. <\/p>
And while that streak was bound to end at some point, TI11\u2019s final total didn\u2019t even manage to crack the top five esports prize pools of all time and fell just under $2 million of TI6\u2019s $20,770,460 total, according to Esports Earnings<\/a>.<\/p>

With the release of the TI11 Swag Bag<\/a> and this new wave of content coming to the game, Valve has somewhat made up for the slow start to this battle pass. <\/p>
Hopefully, something is done to up the support for the DPC next year after Valve\u2019s show of reaffirimg its commitment to the pro scene<\/a> last month, but only time will tell. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
