Tundra captain Wu “Sneaking” Jingjun revealed during a Twitch livestream that he made less than $1 million in prize money.In response to a Reddit thread that began to involve community speculation, Sneyking clarified on Twitter that while it appears that each of the five players should receive 20% of the total prize money, this is in fact the case. No because there are some deductions involved. However, he admitted it was still a “life-changing” amount.

With a Reddit thread on the same issue and several people interpreting the clip as saying he didn’t consider the amount “enough”, Sneaking had to clarify his position in a series of tweets.In theory, sneaking should receive $1.5 million, which is close to 20% of Tundra’s prize money at TI11, but the first cut for internal stakeholders is after deducting taxes.His conclusion was that money was very important,But still very little and rather more than many people in the community expected.

With total career earnings of approximately $2,260,243, Sneaking is the 38th richest eSports player in the world according to Esports Earnings.The player has been working extremely hard for a decade after playing for several teams, and the victory at TI11 was the culmination of his efforts, accounting for almost 80% of his total earnings. Since these figures may not include the deductions mentioned by snaking, however, the actual amount that would come would be lower.

In a recent press conference it was also revealed what the Tundra players are planning to do with their prize money. Their answers revealed that they primarily wanted to own an apartment or invest. As his grandparents are getting older, Sneaking wants to buy a new house for them.Tundra is currently on a break and will return to action on the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) 2022-23.
