Unathi Nsimande (Empaneni High School) - head-and-shoulders above the competition.

Having finished in tie second place with Irfaan Sabet at MSSA's Premier KwaZuluNatal Provincial Championships in 2018, Unathi Nsimande (Empaneni High School) was determined to set himself up as the leading player in the esports title of Street Fighter V.
