Nice Tv and Tencent Sports have released the full list of participants for the International Gaming League finals.

Running from November 20-27, the IGL 2016 finals will see seven teams - three Chinese, three from the Americas and one European - duke it out for their share of a prize pool of little over $100,000.

The tournament was originally due to feature eight teams, but TyLoo ended up withdrawing, and a replacement will not be found. Danish side Heroic have agreed to compete at the event, provided that they do not reach the playoffs at IEM Oakland.
