Going into [[Altador Cup VII]], with a new style of tournament, there was some question whether or not the team would return to its former glory in Altador Cup II. However, they showed the same determination and power that they had in the early days of the Altador Cup, grabbing a multitude of sweeps. They especially looked strong at the fourth round, pulling off four sweeps in a row against [[Altador]], [[Tyrannia]], [[Krawk Island]], AND [[Maraqua]]. However, having faced [[Kreludor]] four times and lost all of them (the last of which was a sweep), they were forced back. Despite this weakness, they climbed back up to 4th. | Going into [[Altador Cup VII]], with a new style of tournament, there was some question whether or not the team would return to its former glory in Altador Cup II.

They were swept by Tyrannia and Altador and lost in the brackets from Roo Island and Krawk Island. Consequently, they ended up 5th, dropping one spot compared to last year. | ||

Their main opponents weren't the powerhouses of old tournaments, but instead newly risen forces such as Moltara, a reborn Haunted Woods, and Virtupets. This also included the title-defending Tyrannia, who didn't suffer from the alleged "Winners Curse". Reaching the top 3 was proven impossible in the very end, but they did claim the 4th place position in a tie with Tyrannia, making it their third good year in a row in which Team Darigan Citadel conquered the top 5. | ||
