With over US$33mil (RM138mil) showered upon 2019's Dota 2 world championship finalists, and almost half that amount dedicated to its overall winner, The International is to reclaim its status as the world's biggest eSport tournament from July's Fortnite World Cup on Aug 25.
For fans of one of the world's biggest eSports, more casual observers, or those who want to see what it's like to win upwards of US$15mil (RM63mil) for playing a computer game, the final stages of this year's annual Dota 2 world championship are being broadcast online on Aug 24 and 25.
