You didn't give any info about your hardware/software, etc so that doesn't help. Assuming your hardware/software combo can do the job, basically these are the facts (Applicable ONLY on U.S. Retail Version):

The protection is SecuRom 2 (or also known as SecuRom *NeW*).

WC3 was/is as easy to 1:1 dupe as any other title with SR2. The WC3 disc didn't show any read errors nor bad sectors, etc, as it can be common to see with SR2.

With the right hardware/software combo and settings you can read/write at max and it will produce a 1:1 copy, if this doesn't work for you try a lower read/write speed, such as x8 or less.

If, you don't already have it, I suggest you get CloneCD and a prot scanner, such as Clony. Do a search for them on this forum, it's full of links.

CloneCD 3/4 Settings:

Reading:
Read Speed [Max -OR- x8 or slower]
Don't Report Read Errors [Off]
Read SubChannel Data from Data Tracks [On]
Read SubChannel Data from Audio Tracks [On]
Abort on Read Error [Off]
Intelligent Bad Sector Scanner [Off]
Fast Error Skip [Off]
Read Retries [0]
Error Correction [Software]
-----------------------------
Writing:
Write Speed [Max -OR- x8 or slower]
Write Mode [RAW DAO]
Buffer Underrun Protection [On]
Perform Laser Power Calibration [On] <- You don't even need this now a days but it won't hurt.
Amplify Weak Sectors [Off]
Don't Repair SubChannel Data [Off]
Always Close Last Session [On]

Trust this helps, good luck.
