I was kinda digging through the history of esports and I found this website which has records dating back to 1998, which is probably when things kicked off.
Its amazing to see the progression in terms of prize money, but also how the games being played competitively changed over time.
Broken down by country is a fun stat
DOTA seems to be the most profitable
All of that before all the cash some of these players make from streaming, etc.
Not bad, not bad at all.
