The recently concluded The International<\/a> 11 had its fair share of twists, including unexpected upsets and impressive performances from underdog teams, but its viewership suffered a huge blow.\u2028 <\/p>\n

According to reports, The International 11 recorded around 67,692,105 hours watched across the board. It also drew in 1,748,392 concurrent viewers. <\/p>\n

On one hand, the viewership is the lowest of any edition of The International in the past three years. The most watched in Dota 2<\/a> history is TI10, which drew over 107,239,277 hours of viewing – almost two times the amount of TI11\u2019s record this year.\u2028 \u2028TI10 also recorded 2,741,514 concurrent viewers at its peak. <\/p>\n

Another Dota 2 tournament that recorded impressive numbers was TI9, with 88,202,849 hours watched.\u2028 \u2028The tournament also peaked at 1,965,328 concurrent viewers. <\/p>\n

The group stage of TI11, which came to a close on October 18, also recorded poor numbers compared to TI10 and TI9. It had a total of approximately 23,000,000 hours watched and overall brought in around 443,000 average viewers. On day one, TI11 also reached 680,900 concurrent viewers.\u2028 <\/p>\n

\u2028Besides the low view count, this year\u2019s TI also recorded the lowest prize pool since the fifth edition of the Dota 2 event. TI9 brought in a whopping US$34,330,068, while the 10th iteration had $40,018,195 in its purse.\u2028 \u2028TI11, on the other hand, had a kitty of just under $19 million at the time of writing. <\/p>\n

\u2028While those figures might suggest TI11 was a failure, it ranks as the third most viewed tournament in Dota 2 history. It recorded a higher peak viewership number and more hours watched than other TI events besides TI9 and T10.\u2028 \u2028<\/p>\n

Also, Dota 2\u2019s player base is in good shape, as the title recently surpassed 1 million concurrent users for the first time since 2019. <\/p>\n

The International 11 concluded on October 30 in Singapore, with Tundra Esports as the winner<\/a>. The team swept Team Secret 3-0 in the match and took home over $8.5 million as the winners. Team Secret, the runners-up, were awarded $2.46 million.<\/p>\n
