Pro League Finals with $500k+ pool

ESL has announced the prize distribution for the third edition of its Pro League.

Kicking off today, ESL Pro League Season 3 will feature 24 of the world's finest teams, who will duke it out over the next nine weeks for a piece of the $750,000 prize pool and the chance to attend the offline finals, to be held at an as-yet venue in London in May.

With an additional $250,000 on offer per season in the Pro League, ESL has announced that $512,000 alone will be paid out to the eight teams attending the finals. The rest of the money will be distributed proportionately among the teams who did not make the cut, having finished 5th-12th in their respective divisions.
