In terms of esports players of 2024, Wang “UMA” Yuan-hao has outperformed all of them as he captured the most earnings in a single year, becoming the most rewarded Street Fighters player while beating all Dota 2 players/teams.

This information has been shared by the Esports Earnings portal.

Statistics indicate that UMA has earned over a million dollars in prize money and hence is now noted as the highest earner in the esports world. Dota 2 Team Falcons players claimed third place on the leaderboard, racking up approximately $663,000 in prize earnings. On the other hand, Xu “Yinuo” Bicheng, an Arena of Valor player, ended the year earning the second position by earning around $775,000.

Top-earning esports players of 2024 are:

Wang "UMA" Yuan-hao – $1,001,476

Xu "Yinuo" Bicheng – $775,508

Andreas Franck “Cr1t-“ Nielsen – $663,479

It is worth noting that UMA won the highest earnings of the year without having to put the much grind into it; he won the Capcom Cup X that set him back a mere one tournament, finishing on top and taking home a million dollar prize. The same isn’t applicable for Cr1t- as he had to take part in 2024’s six tournaments to earn a third place.

Earlier in August, it was reported that Roman “ Resolut1on ” Fominok is now ready to unveil his own League for Dota 2.
