The prize pool for The International 2015 is big to the tune of $17,087,016. It's now bigger than all previous International tournaments combined .
Valve has now revealedjust how that prize pool will be divvied up between the tournament's winners. Of course, with Compendiums still on sale, that prize pool is still rising—and so, the amount due to each winner is rising too.

The International group stage runs from July 27-30, with the tournament itself taking place from August 3--8. You'll be able to watch on Twitch, YouTube, or Dota 2's broadcast page. This year, those unfamiliar with Dota 2 can look forward to a daily "Newcomer Show"—a once-a-day event that will seemingly replace last year's newcomer stream.
