Evil Geniuses, a popular North American eSports team, won the Dota 2 Championships at The International 5 on Saturday. The competition took place at a packed KeyArena in downtown Seattle, and was viewed by millions of people streaming the event from around the world.
The U.S.-based team took home a record-setting cash prize of $6.6 million. The overall prize pot reached over $18 million, with the rest of the crowd-sourced funds being distributed amongst the remaining 15 teams.
