". . . One interesting thing about Japanese players is that they stick with just one character, since their tournament format requires keeping the same character the entire tournament. The Japanese players definitely proved to me that by sticking to one character and learning everything about that character, you win the unwinnable matches . . ." - Sirlin, "Playing to Win"

Yes, you don't need to play that, and due to some additional requirements for signups for mono civ we had to push back the sign ups so as of now they are not open, we will inform once the sign ups start.
