Joining the [[Altador Cup]] in 2007, '''[[Shenkuu]]'s Yooyuball team''' is regarded by [[Altador Cup]] enthusiasts as an exciting young team with plenty of promise, but they were expected not to make much noise in the tournament, having too many holes in their team. The inexperience of goalie [[Xana DiLanche]], the unpredictable health of defender [[Turo Rafels]], and the team's overall lack of tournament play are all serious concerns. However, the stunning talent of young forwards [[Mirsha Grelinek]] and [[Foltaggio]] may cause a few upsets. | Joining the [[Altador Cup]] in 2007, '''[[Shenkuu]]'s Yooyuball team''' is regarded by [[Altador Cup]] enthusiasts as an exciting young team with plenty of promise, but they were expected not to make much noise in the tournament, having too many holes in their team.

The team surpassed expectations in the [[Altador Cup II|2007 Cup]], defeating [[Krawk Island]] in the third place game. The following year in [[Altador Cup III]], they dropped one spot to fourth place. In [[Altador Cup IV]], Shenkuu shockingly defeated top seed [[Kreludor]] to reach the finals, but lost to [[Krawk Island]] was left in second. Although they were favourites going into [[Altador Cup V]] thanks to their strong prior performances, Shenkuu's 2010 bid ended in a very disappointing 11th place finish. | The team surpassed expectations in the [[Altador Cup II|2007 Cup]], defeating [[Krawk Island]] in the third place game.

[[Altador Cup VI]] continued Shenkuu's inconsistency. Finishing yet again in third tier at the end, the team finished 10th after defeating [[Haunted Woods]], but losing to [[Roo Island]]. | |||
