Ural Steel Finals, Moscow, June 18 (Russia)

On the 18th of June there took place the final competitions of the Ural Steel World tournament. There are three WoT servers in the World: American, European and Russian, and three divisions ( in a manner of speaking, weightcategories) on each server. One team in each division from each server (those who had won the preliminaries) came to the final competition. Russian server was presented by two teams in each division, as Russian server audience covers a territory with a big time shift. ?As most teams are international, summarily only the final competitions covered 22 countries. Mostly players came from Russia, Poland and the USA. The Finals took place in Universal Sport-Show center of Russian State University of Physical Education, Sport and Tourism. The stage was decorated in a military camp manner with “combat staff” special places for final matches. Matches were translated on two large screens (each for one rival) for the spectators. Estimated number of visitors exceeded 2000 people. Also the event was translated to the Internet. The public was entertained by show program between the matches. Participants also visited the tank museum in Kubinka near Moscow. Main sponsors of the events were Wargaming.net and Uralvagonzavod ? one of the World largest tank producer.
? Here are some video & photo reports from the Final (professional and amateur):
