The Counter-Strike tournament at the ESWC 2010 finals was originally allocated a huge $63,000, the largest portion of the event's $213,500 prize fund. The money was initially spread over the top three placings but the ESWC committee have decided to expand cash prizes to the top eight, bringing the total up to $73,500.

The extra $10,500 comes in light of the cancellation of the Virtua Tennis tournament. No changes have been made to the top three prizes.

The revised Counter-Strike prize purse is as follows:

1st - $36,000
2nd - $18,000
3rd - $9,000
4th - $4,100
5th - 8th - $1,600
