PTG Database Analysis

The WSVG UK Counter-Strike tournament ran at the London Trocadero from October 6–8, 2006. Liquipedia’s current event infobox lists October 8–10, but HLTV’s event announcement, contemporary weekend reporting and match records support October 6–8. The tournament had 29 teams and a USD 25,000 prize pool.[1][2][3]

Team Pentagram won the Counter-Strike competition, with hoorai second and SK Gaming third. The Trocadero is recorded as a historical venue; the former entertainment complex has since been redeveloped. The reviewed event sources did not establish a WSVG UK-specific commercial partner, so the edition has no partner relationship recorded.[1][3][4]
