'''[[Tyrannia]]'s [[Altador Cup|Yooyuball]] team''' was assembled a few years before 2006 from a group made almost entirely of players whose original teams had given up on them. After a series of trades and waiver wire acquisitions, Tyrannia began to transform its motley bunch of cast-offs into a selfless squad of warriors. Driven by a desire to show everyone how wrong they were to write them off, Tyrannia's "Forsaken Five" have gone on to become one of the most successful Yooyuball teams. | '''[[Tyrannia]]'s [[Altador Cup|Yooyuball]] team''' was assembled a few years before 2006 from a group made almost entirely of players whose original teams had given up on them.

In the preparation for [[Altador Cup VIII]] they exchanged Goalkeepers with [[Team Moltara]], therefore gaining the strength of Mor Gollog. The team spirit that year was never better and the mechanism functionated like an oiled machine. Already soon in the competition they proved themself even worthy for the title. As the time went on their only rival for the Cup was Altador, in the decisive match between them, Mor Gollog proved himself of great value and reassured the Cup for Team Tyrannia. An impressive achievement that no one saw coming. But Loryche was always sure of to be possible. | In the preparation for [[Altador Cup VIII]] they exchanged Goalkeepers with [[Team Moltara]], therefore gaining the strength of Mor Gollog.

The expactations were low for Tyrannia at the start of [[Altador Cup IX]]. Over the past six years, winning teams were tormented by the "Winners Curse" the year after their grand victory. Team Tyrannia however fought hard and shocked the world of Yooyuball. They were able to compete with the favorites, breaking through their "unbeated" status. Unfortunately Tyrannia simply wasn't good enough but still managed to finish 4th in a tie with Darigan Citadel. Their top 5 position was proof that Tyrannia is in fact the first team ever who doesn't suffer the Winners Curse. | |||
Having proved themselves above the Winner's Curse and a new powerhouse team, with a string of impressive placements under their belts, the pressure was on for Team Tyrannia to keep it up in [[Altador Cup X]]. Much to the delight of fans, Team Tyrannia was able to live up to the challenge, being unrelentingly brutal to any team that challenged them, and having given [[Kreludor]] a run for its money, actually managed to improve their scores slightly and returned to the podium in 3rd. | |||
[[Altador Cup XI]] showed that, despite the chaos brought about by the "multiple account disorder" scandal, Team Tyrannia would continue to operate at the same level of excellence that they had established by Altador Cup VIII. Having excelled in every single bracket, and dominating much of the final bracket, Team Tyrannia really stepped up to the plate and showed everyone that they were not going to be a team that rose to glory and simply dropped off. Showing their consistency, dedication, and toughness, Team Tyrannia improved yet again to place 2nd. | |||
