Results of MSSA's 29th National Championships

White Rabbit Gaming with their National Federation Colours
MSSA's 29th National Championships (sponsored by MWEB) hosted by HTS Witbank was indeed a success.

Thanks must be extended to MWEB, HTS Witbank, Morizane Boyes and the Mpumulanga Provincial Director, Mr. Louis Brown.

The championship attracted players from the majority of provinces, and players battled it out to not only to earn the title of South African Champion, but also to earn National Federation Colours and the right to fight for a place in the 2016 National Team Trials that will ultimately deliver a team to the IeSF's 2016 8th World Championships.

The championship delivered a number of surprises. Most notable of the surprise results were to be found in the CounterStrike, FIFA, and HearthStone titles.

In CounterStrike, the newly formed Whit Rabbit Gaming team smashed the opposition. Only the St John's team offered any sort of resistance as White Rabbit surged forward to take first place, and by winning all ttheir games, earned National Colours in the process.

In FIFA, it has been held for the past couple of years that Kyle Turnbull is without doubt the best player in South Africa. However, a challenger from Fairmont High School, by the name of Andrew Reeve, emerged and in the championship, held Kyle to a draw. Kyle was physically shocked! The final position was thus decided on tie-break which Kyle won on goal average!

HearthStone too showed a new challenger coming to the fore. While Maryke romped home in the females section, Brandon Horn waltzed home to take the title of South African champion and earn himself a position in the 2016 National Team Trials.
