Things were looking bright on ViCi&#8217;s side as they took the first game, only to be swept by Newbee in the next three. Newbee walked away with a prize of just over 5 million dollars (USD). Each team in the top 14 walked away with their cut of the cash, with ViCi taking 1.5 million and Evil Geniuses, third place, taking 1 million dollars.<\/p>\n<p>The competitors weren&#8217;t the only winners at this event, however.
