Third time proved to be the charm, when in [[Altador Cup III|2008]], Roo Island beat Krawk Island in the Altador Cup final, claiming the cup. In 09, however, Roo Island placed ninth. In [[Altador Cup V|2010]], Roo Island was questioned for making no changes to their lineup in the offseason. However, though a pedestrian start first half, they kicked it up a notch before the mid-season break by winning 16 of the last 19 matches. This catapulted them up to 4th place going into the finals. [[Kreludor]] was able to sneak out a victory in the first round, and [[Darigan Citadel]] defeated them in the second round, leaving 4th place to Roo Island. They were contenders for the Cup in 11'. Even though their Yooyuball record was great, their side game performance wasn't up to par and ended back in 9th place. | Third time proved to be the charm, when in [[Altador Cup III|2008]], Roo Island beat Krawk Island in the Altador Cup final, claiming the cup.

[[Altador Cup VII]'s new style didn't fare well for Roo Island, and frequent matchups against powerful teams did not fare well. Further, with [[Mystery Island]]'s upgrade to a powerhouse force, many worried of what else would come to the Roos. Even with a roster change, trading popular defender [[Gordo Gunnels]] with equally popular [["Squeaky" Tressif]], the Roos suffered. The result was a 14th place finish, a position far below what is expected of them. | [[Altador Cup VII]]'s new style didn't fare well for Roo Island, and frequent matchups against powerful teams did not fare well.
