ESEA with $600,000 for GO in 2015

ESEA has announced that it will hand out $600,000 in 2015 across all three seasons.

With Season 18 reaching its midway point, ESEA has now announced details about the prize pot for 2015, which stands at over $600,000, a considerable increase when compared to last year's purse.

This announcement will be reflected in the current season already, as the top three prizes have been tripled, meaning that the winner will get $70,000, the runner-up $25,000 and the third-placed side $15,000.

• Season 18 - $200,000
• Season 19 - $200,000+
• Season 20 - $200,000+

ESEA Season 18's offline finals will take place from April 17-19 at the Doubletree by Hilton hotel, in Dallas, with the top four teams from the European and the North American divisions in attendance.
