Tencent Games India states that a total of a whopping 4,00,000 matches have been played as part of the tournament so far if one includes the competition stages and online qualifiers. The competition saw over 5,75,000 registrations, of which only 20 teams of four players each have been able to make it to the finals.
What raises the stakes even higher is the fact that the eventual winners get to take home prize money worth Rs 30,00,000, while the team that finishes second and third walk home with Rs 10,00,000 and Rs 5,00,000 respectively.
That's not all. To ensure that players who've been able to shine at an individual level also get rewarded, the organisers have announced cash awards of Rs 50,000 for any player who's racked up the most number of medals within the game. These medals include MVP, Exterminator, Healer, Redeemer, Lone Ranger and Rampage Freak.
