How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first prize pool, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total dollars. Try 1 TI10 against 1 TI1 to see the twenty five to one gap. All rows use US Dollars, so the unit stays fixed.
Values round announced finals to whole dollars, so cents stay out, stated here. Crowdfunded compendiums built TI4 through TI10, with a fixed Valve base plus fan share. TI12 and TI13 use the smaller post compendium format, which is why totals fall. Winner shares and team cuts stay out because only full purses are rowed. Regional leagues stay out.
