Oh, the competitive Esports scene, the climax of every contestant’s blood, sweat, and tears.
There’s no better place to show off your skills than in front of different gaming teams from all around the world. Even if you don’t win the big prize at the end, just being on the greatest stage of them all is an achievement.
However, have you ever pondered which one is the largest? Well, it’s all relative, but here are five different “largest” instances!
5. Honor of Kings World Champion Cup
In terms of the tiniest hardware, it’s the biggest. Honor of Kings, which has at least 100 million active players as of this writing, demonstrates that mobile Esports can compete with the big hardware boys.
Honor of Kings is a Chinese Mobile App Market-exclusive Multiplayer Battle Arena (like League of Legends or Dota2). In 2015, it burst onto the scene in a hitherto untapped area for mobile gaming (then only occupied by competitor Vainglory). This game is so successful because it caters to this market, and the Champion Cup is the proverbial Olympus that every mobile gamer aspires to achieve.

4. EVO Championship Series
Which has the longest lifespan? The Evolution Championship Series, or EVO for short, is here!
It’s 1996 in Sunnyvale, California, and you’ve just learned that B3: Battle By The Bay, a minor video game fighting competition, is on the horizon. You’ve heard about such events but haven’t given them much thought. You may not realize it, but you’ve just missed out on an opportunity to witness the birth of a legend.
This tournament, which was eventually dubbed EVO, is the longest-running fighting event, featuring a variety of fighting games from Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Tekken, and Super Smash Bros., to mention a few. This is a major event that shows no signs of stopping down!!
3. Fortnite World Cup Champion
Esports Athlete with the largest single prize win.
Bugha, 16, won the main prize of 3 million dollars during a whirlwind 10-week placement phase from April to June 2019. He certainly deserved it in its one and only incarnation in 2019 (the 2020 World Cup would have gone through if Miss Rona hadn’t intervened).
2. League of Legends World Championship
If we’re talking about popularity, this is the most popular (which goes hand in hand with League being arguably the most popular game as of 2021). The 2019 League of Legends World Championship (also known as “Worlds”) drew a stunning 3,985,787 viewers.
The creative and downright theatrical atmosphere of Worlds is one of its most distinguishing features, demonstrating that it is more than just the end of a long journey. It feels like a suitable tribute to the athletes who have taken part thus far.
An noteworthy aspect is that each year, the tournament sets new viewing records.
1. DOTA 2 “The International”
This one is the most lucrative in terms of prize money, with a prize pool of $34 million, the greatest of any Esport competition to date. That’s a lot of cash to be distributed!
The International has had the DNA of a great competition since its inception in 2011. Valve began allowing players to directly donate through crowdfunding in 2013, and as a result, it has been able to maintain its high level of popularity and ever-increasing prize pool.
A couple free documentaries titled “Free to Play” and “True Sight” are available online if you’re ever intrigued to watch the story of The International in all its grandeur!
And those are the 5 MOST IMPORTANT Esports tournaments now taking place! Now go find one and join it to attain greatness!
