RAMZES666 revealed what the prize pool of The International 2025 will be

Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev said that the prize pool of The International 2025 will be about $3 million, and players will also expect huge taxes.

The cybersportsman told about this during a stream on Twitch.

"It seems that here are three will be - that's it. We'll finish on three. More taxes there in Hamburg, how many percent there? It's like we came third at the last Inter and got less money than Streamers Battle"

RAMZES666 believes that the prize money at this year's World Cup is unlikely to exceed $3 million. Moreover, he reminded that Germany, where TI14 will be held, has significant taxes on winnings. Given the many legal nuances, it is difficult to say exactly what percentage the players will have to pay, but approximately the amount of deduction will be between 35 and 55% of the winnings.

In other words, if a team earns $1 million in prize money from a championship, the players will have to give up to $550,000 in taxes. RAMZES666 also gave an eloquent example, noting that he earned more money at the Streamers Battles show tournament than he received for the third place at The International 2024.
