Earlier this month, we announced that the first-ever Overwatch World Cup would be hosted at BlizzCon 2016, and we called on YOU—our players—to help us select the dream team that would represent your country. After tabulating over 3 million votes and gathering suggestions from each of the Team Captains, we're happy to reveal the final rosters for all the nations and regions participating in this international exhibition!

Starting in September, many of these teams will take part in best-of-three, single-elimination online qualifiers. Then, at BlizzCon in November, sixteen teams will battle in round-robin group stages and single-elimination finals. To ensure that all major regions of the world are well-represented at BlizzCon, the sixteen teams competing there will include six from the Europe game region, six from the Asia-Pacific game regions, and four from the Americas.

Congratulations to all the players! We hope to see you at BlizzCon!
