BLAST dives into Dota 2 with Bounty Hunt tournament

Tournament organiser BLAST has announced its first venture into Dota 2 with Bounty Hunt – an online tournament with a $145,000 (£116,049) dynamic prize pool for players and a $5,000 (£4,001) cash prize for audience participants.

BLAST Bounty Hunt will be held from June 9-13th and broadcast over BLAST’s newly created Dota 2 Twitch and YouTube channels. Pro teams from across the world will compete in over 32 hours of competitive gameplay over five consecutive days, playing best-of-threes until the Championship best-of-five. The prize pool will shift with every competition and additional bounties can be won along the way, continually changing the stakes.
