Event: WCG 2002
The WCG USA qualifier has just come to an end!After all the commotion and waiting time, WCG USA finally can present us the final rankings! This years winner is Socrates, followed by Daler who finished second. After a exciting match, fatal1ty didn't made it to the WCG finals in Korea because he lost versus cha0ticz. I guess he can blame it on the 1 map pro round system. Anyhows, good luck to the 3 winners! You can check all scores and rankings below. Socrates will now face ZeRo4 in an exhibition match! I was just told that this match is being played after the counter-strike finals, but it is also possible that WCG USA has decided not to play it.
Big thanks to Speakeasy.net , Killersinc.com and Gamedaemons.net for offering us good quality GTV.
And ofcourse we shouldn't forget TsN (DJWheat and others) who covered the event with their excellent shoutcast.
They are still on air, so I suggest you tune in while you still can.
By the way, I found some pictures!
*The following happened before the final games.*
First are the results from the group stage. Some interesting scores, to say the least.
It seemed clear, the first 2 from each group would go to the final 4 stage. But then the following happened: ZeRo4 decided to step out of the tournament because he just found out his trip IS being payed by WCG Korea. So now things are a bit messed up.
However, WCG USA decided to let Makaveli and fatal1ty (both finished third in their group) play a best of three deciders match to decide who will get the last spot into the final 4 stage. And last but not least, the WCG USA winner will play ZeRo4 in an exhibition match!! Exciting and interesting stuff going on there.
