Revised Street Fighter V rankings.

Dylan Naidoo (Northcliff High School) and Leonard Loftus (Masters of Mind Sports) locked in battle.

Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) held its Gauteng Provincial Championships at Curro Aurora on 23 February 2019, and at such championships, all witnessed a shake-up to the officia rankings.

Leonard Loftus (Masters of Mind Sports) managed to ease himself into pole-position with his daughter, Leone, and son, Joost, hot-on-his-heels in second and third position respectively.

However, everything can change pretty quickly.

The Western Cape is renown for its high standard of gaming in this genre. With such a high standard in the Western Cape, it is entirely feasable that the rankings can change substantially on 23 March 2019.

The Western Cape Provincial Championships shall be hosted on 23 March 2019 by Curro Durbanville.
