I always wondered whether these teams made a lot of money or not. This makes me wonder too whether these massive esports tournaments, like CSGO majors, make a lot of money or if they’re in the same boat? I’d assume they’d have to if they’ve been going on for this long with big prize pools but I’d apply that same logic to esports orgs too.

CS.GO TO are usually sponsored by the worst people, it's comparable to football/soccer at this point. But it took how much ? 20 years for TO to creat one of the best ecosystems that doesn't rely on the game company's money that much.
