CS World ChampionsLast month the CPL announced all past CPL one-versus-one World Champions. Now, the CPL is pleased to announce all of the Counter-Strike World Champions. The list of Counter-Strike Champions dates back to 2000, when the CPL officially began hosting team-based tournaments with Counter-Strike.
CPL Announces 1v1 ChampionsThe CPL is pleased to announce the list of all past CPL 1v1 World Champions. The list for the CPL 1v1 World Champions dates back to 1997, when the CPL officially began hosting 1v1 tournaments with Quake. Tom “gollum” Dawson won the very first FRAG tournament hosted by the CPL. Dan “Rix” Hammans took the 1998 World Champion title by winning both tournaments featuring both Quake I and Quake II, our first multi-game champion. 1999 featured the emergence of Mark “Wombat” Larsen, who took the World Champion title by winning Ground Zero, the CPL’s first event in New York City as well as taking 2nd place at FRAG 3 in Dallas.
CPL Registration OpenThe online registration for the CPL 2006 Championship Finals, has been launched at https://www.thecpl.com/register/. For one week, only competitors participating in the two official PC tournaments (Quake 3 1v1 and CS 1.6 Team) are able to register online for the Championship Finals. The BYOC area will be relatively small, therefore competitors bringing practice computers to the event must select “BYOC” during the registration to avoid issues during check-in.
