SA's official StarCraft II rankings are now released.

Aidan Smale (Old Edwardian Wargames Club).

The most important championship of the year remains Mind Sports South Africa's SA National Championships (SAN).

The 2017 edition was hosted by Fakkel School on 2 & 3 December 2017, and the championship was a huge success.

The school provided wonderful facilities, catering, accommodation, venue - the works.

It is indeed pleasing to see that the 2016 SA National Champion, not only won his section again, but also is now the number one ranked player in the country.

It is hoped that Aidan Smale (Old Edwardian Wargames Club) is now inspired to reach even greater heights.
