PTG Database Analysis

The World Series of Video Games 2006 circuit concluded with its Counter-Strike finals at Chelsea Piers in New York. The contemporaneous WSVG announcement gave December 9–11 for the finals; HLTV’s match coverage records the final on December 11. Liquipedia’s Counter-Strike infobox instead lists December 8–10, so this record follows the contemporaneous event announcement and match record.[1][2][3]

The Counter-Strike field had 10 teams and USD 85,000 in cash prizes, with Intel announced as the presenting partner of the wider WSVG finals. ALTERNATE aTTaX defeated Team 3D in the final; fnatic placed third. The participant tab now records all ten teams and their final placements.[1][2][3]
