Thanks to an extremely generous $1000 donation by community member Nahanni, we've been able to guarantee that the minimum prize pool this season will sit at $2000. In addition to the guaranteed base prize pool, we are going to be releasing news later this week about a community crowd funding program that we've developed that will enable players and fans of each game to help spread the word about CEVO and directly affect the specific prize pools of the games that they love. 100% of the proceeds from the community crowdfunding project will go directly towards the Season 4 prize pools (less PayPal transaction fees), CEVO will not keep a cent.

Looking forward to Season 5, if we're able to hit the mark of at least 40 completely paid teams in Season 4, we'll be able to at the very least, double the size of TF2's prize pool without relying on any sponsors or community donations. Additionally in Season 5, we are tentatively planning on adding an additional skill division if participation permits. Keep in mind that in Season 4, CEVO is committed to putting 100% of the league fees (less PayPal transaction fees) towards the Season 5 guaranteed prize pool.
