WCG USA budget cut - not to fund StarCraft 2 nor Counter-Strike winners

The organizers of World Cyber Games USA will only be sending national finalists to Korea from League of Legends and Crossfire.

This means that the remaining two main titles Counter-Strike 1.6 and StarCraft 2 will not receive any sponsorship funding from the organization due to "sponsorship funding issues".

American hard-shooters and RTS masters are free to pay their own participation at the grand finals in South Korea after having qualified in a national finals held online.

The finalists of StarCraft 2 and Counter-Strike 1.6 will, however, be sponsored to play in the World Cyber Games Pan-Am games in San Paulo, Brazil in November 4-6.
