Top 10 Chinese teams by the earned prize money.
The result was a very entertaining picture. Despite that the most famous tournament operators in the world set prize pools for the Chinese region lower than for the European, it hosts a large number of local tournaments.
So, the leader of the top, ??PSG.LGD won $305,000 for two and a half months, which is $50,000 more than the leader of the European region, Team Secret.
It is wanted to note the ??Newbee team: they are on 6th position in the list, although they haven't been participating in tournaments for a month now. This situation is due to a ban from Chinese tournament operators who suspect them of match-fixing.
