The prize pool for The International 2024 could become one of the lowest in Dota 2 history

The prize pool for The International 2024 remains at $1.6 million, despite less than a month remaining until the Dota 2 World Championship.

If Valve does not urgently release the 2024 Compendium or Battle Pass, the prize pool for TI13 could become one of the smallest in the game's history. Previous world championships have seen their prize pools increased through a percentage of Battle Pass sales. However, this year Valve has yet to announce the 2024 Compendium, with less than 20 days remaining before the tournament.

It is possible that Valve might start adding to the prize pool in the middle of The International 2024 through the sale of unique cosmetics or team bundles. This situation is causing concern among players and analysts, as the usual hype leading up to the championship is noticeably absent this year.
