What will the prize pool of The International 2025 be if Valve increases the player contribution share

There is information that Valve may increase the share of contributions to the prize pool of The International 2025 from Compendium sales to 30%, which will increase the prize pool to approximately $3,011,879, taking into account last year's experience.

If we assume that last year Valve earned about $4.7 million on the Compendium and 25% went to the prize pool of TI13, then the players got $1,176,566. If this year the share of contributions is increased, then the prize pool should exceed the previous one by approximately $235,313.

In other words, the prize pool of The International 2025 may be about $3,011,879. An equally important factor will be the content of the Compendium 2025. In addition, an increase in the share of players can stimulate fans to more actively sponsor the event and their favorite teams.

Let's remember that earlier there was unusual activity on the Dota 2 servers, and the 2025 Compendium may be released in the coming days.
