"For our home games, we use the Grarrl Keno Bowl, so we have to take everything down whenever there's a hatching. It's a lot of work." Team captain Loryche says Tyrannia plans to bring a stronger game than ever to the Cup and admits that Tyrannia held recruitment drives earlier this year, but there is no word yet of any roster changes. | ::[[Team Tyrannia|Tyrannia]]: '''Toughing It Out in Tyrannia'''-"Scrap" Taggert says that his team looks forward to playing in the Altador Colosseum again.

Altador Cup VI was quite unlike anyone predicted. After the double round robin, the five finals brackets were released. The first had Krawk Island upsetting Kreludor and Virtupets owning Maraqua. The Space Station's momentum carried into the Championship, and nearly swept the Pirates. Despite the hype surrounding Terror Mountain's amazing year, they were utterly defeated by Meridell and Darigan Citadel, finishing in eighth. Former champions Lost Desert failed to meet any expectations they tried to meet for the year, and finished in a mediocre 13th. Althought losing even twice to Altador and finishing in dead last two years in a row, Moltara proved to be something new by winning their first-ever yooyuball game-5 to be exact! | |||

{{Main|Altador Cup VI Staff Tournament}} | |||
The 2011 staff tournament began June 6 and ended July 1. Rather than having a [[wikipedia:single-elimination tournament|knockout]] tournament as in [[Altador Cup V]], 18 staff members were assigned to a team and categorized as either a ''forward'', ''defender'', or ''goalie''. Users then created a 6-person team using two forwards, two defenders, and one goalie. At the end of the contest, the total points earned by the team were added together and used as currency for the prize shop. | |||
