Naive question, is there a reason that LoL Worlds prize pool went from 6 millions to 2 millions between 2018 and 2019? (liquipedia.net)

I'm not aware of the real reason, but it is important to know that these kinds of events are nothing but promotional and marketing

They do not profit from it

Oh, I get that, but curious about that drastic drop

[–] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 2 points 3 weeks ago

Probably the fact that they aren't making as much money on the competitions as they used to.
