Dota 2 Daily Cap

All tier-1 Dota 2 series starting inside the contest day.

Payouts

Where the prize pool goes

Shares of the $750 AUD pool. Ties split the sum of the tied places equally.

Top-heavy. Roughly the top third of the field is paid, with a large share at the top.

Shown for a full field of 100. On a shorter field the places that do not exist are dropped and the rest are scaled up, so the pool is paid out in full either way. Minimum field: 20 entries — below that the contest is cancelled and every entry fee is returned.
