Halo 5 ESL Global competition - $1.7 million prize

[Czerka]

Over $1,700,000 and counting up for grabs in the Halo World Championship!

The prize pool for the Halo World Championship 2016 started out at a cool US$1,000,000. Now, thanks to community contributions in the form of REQ Pack purchases, that amount has risen to over US$1,700,000 - and it’s still rising. With so much on the line and only sixteen slots with which to try and win it, you’d better be ready if you’re planning on pursuing it.

@itsyoung!! how the fukk they get that much money for a halo comp?

sounds like they got a DOTA/League of Legends set up where if people purchase from their store a % goes to the prize pool. They raised $700,000 not bad, but obviously nothing compared to the $10-15 million tournaments raised by league of legends / dota communities

dont know why they put up a million though, the game only sold 300k, its the biggest flop this year and if xbox 1 was relying on that to bring them back to the forefront, then we will be seeing xbox 1 go away quicker than expected Dreamcast status forreal..
