All World Cyber Games national representatives from the ten WCG participating countries in America have been invited to take part in an invitational tournament. The winner of the StarCraft tournament comes home with $1.500.
This past Friday the event took place in Mexico, where they had a tournament between ten players who represented their countries at the World Cyber Games 2006. Unfortunately, because of a lack of news about this event, nobody represented the United States for this event. Here is the official comment by the American World Cyber Games website:
