Ó
The countdown to the WCG 2006 Final in Monza, Italy, will begin with the group draw that will be held on September 20. While over 1.25 million competitors from 70 participating countries are starting to shape down to an elite 700, the final stages are also being set for these cyber athletes to represent their country at the Finals this coming October.
The result of the group draw will be announced with live flash service through the official WCG website.
The tournament structure will consist of group full league and then single elimination tournaments until the final matches in each official game. The number of groups in group full league and the number of players in the single tournament will be decided depending on the final number of participants.
More specific information regarding the tournament structure and regulations of each official game for WCG 2006 Grand Final in Monza, Italy will be notified on the WCG official website.
The Official Games you will be seeing in the finals are:
6 PC Games

Say what they will about gamers, about how socially dysfunctional we are. Say what they want about organized LAN tournaments, and how they're not "real" forms of competition. Gaming is here to stay. Gamers number in the millions. And the WCG is our world cup.
See you all in October.
