Regardless of Paris CS:GO Main’s $1.25 million prize pool, one crew made more cash from stickers than winnings

It’s been no secret that Main stickers are a large market that results in enormous earnings for organizations, however the revelations of Monte participant Volodymyr “Woro2k” Veletnyuk have left us surprised at simply how giant the margins are between what groups make from the prize pool and what they might make from sticker gross sales.

Woro2k spoke with escorenews.com about Main stickers and revealed how a lot sticker cash his crew Monte comprised of the Paris CS:GO Main, which had a $1.25 million prize pool.

He confirmed Monte revamped $200,000 simply from sticker gross sales. If Woro2k’s evaluation is to be trusted, and there’s no purpose why it wouldn’t be, that might put Monte’s earnings from Paris Main stickers 450 % larger than their share ($45,000) from the occasion’s official prize pool.

Whereas this ratio is extraordinarily unlikely for the Paris champion Vitality, who pocketed $500,000 for successful the grand remaining, or finalists GamerLegion, who aren’t a giant identify and in addition acquired a big prize pool share ($170,000), it’s a risk that each one different Paris Main attendees earned far more from event stickers than they did successful CS:GO video games within the server.

Woro2k and Monte have been among the many many surprises on the last-ever CS:GO Main. They beat FURIA, Fnatic, and NAVI within the group stage to achieve the quarter-finals, the place they lastly fell to a different Cinderella story, GamerLegion. Trying on the numbers shared by Woro2k, that loss, as painful because it might need been from a aggressive standpoint, didn’t have an effect on Monte’s Paris Main income all that a lot.
