Counter-Strike: WSVG 2006 CS Finals Day 1 Melee

By: Philip - Published December 08, 2006 at 9:07 PM EST - Writer Archive
Ten teams have qualified through various qualifiers this past year and will now play in the Finals for the World Series of Video Games.
The World Series of Video Games culminates in New York City with ten teams from across the Globe battling it out for the top prize of 5 Computers, 5 Rolex's and of course the $50,000. This three day event will feature only one match at a time so you will not be forced to choose between two games. All games can be watched on GotFrag HLTV at hltv.gotfrag.com:3101. Also, because there are only ten teams in the competition, the top six seeded teams will be given a first round BYE.

The first round will feature only two matches as wNv Gaming will take on the WSVG UK winners, Pentagram G-Shock. This match will be the first of the day and is scheduled to begin at 10:00am EST. The second match will be immediately after and will see tournament favourites, Ninjas in Pyjamas facing the runner up of WSVG China, Hacker Gaming. As mentioned, the remaining teams have all received BYE's into the next round.

Round two will see Fnatic play the winner between wNv and PGS. Pandemic and Team 3D are slated for a CEVO Finals re-match in round two with both teams receiving BYE's. WSVG ISC runner's up, ALTERNATE aTTaX, will take on Swedish team, SK Gaming. Last but not least, compLexity, will play the winner between Hacker Gaming and NiP.
