This is still unclear, the official website's 'Tickets' page is still under construction: http://www.chengduchampions.com/[...]
Hopefully they will sort it out soon, but there are still five months before the tournament and three more competitors to announce. Should be cool.

Forums > Food & Drink > Non-oily Sichuanese dishes?
sometimes the problem is the restaurant, not the dish... certain restaurants will make every dish oily regardless of what it is, others will vary from dish to dish.
in general though, food in chengdu does seem to be heavy on the oil - most of the dishes i can think of with little oil tend to be cold appetizers like laohucai (老虎菜 - a salad of cucumber, tomato, capsicum and onion) or majiang fengwei (麻酱凤尾 - qingsun greens with sesame sauce)
green tea is supposedly good for flushing the oil out of your system, i always drink plenty with dinner
