ZAG Academy to host a MSSA Derby event.

ZAG Academy supremo, Johan van Breda, is totally committed to the growth of esports in South Africa.

Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) has developed and instituted an exciting new championship format being the Derby event.

Also with the South African governments Level 3 Regulations, only official events can be held. Thus the Derby event complies with the legislation in allowing smaller decentralised events on a more frequent basis and may even be held online.

The event also allows the member club hosting the event to obtain sponsorships.

It should be noted that while only a member club may host the event, such host may allow non member clubs to participate in the event.

Thus MSSA's members are able to spread the word that Board games, Esports, and Wargames are fully accredited sports while at the same time delivering even more to their Registered Players and the community as a whole.

As part of his exciting initiative ZAG Academy approved by the Board, on 19 August 2021. ZAG Academy  will be hosting the event in two separate esports titles being DotA 2 and CounterStrike - GO.

The line-up represents teams the best that South Africa has to offer, being:

DotA 2Counter-Strike: GO
Sin 5 DOTARondebosch CS
ZAG DOTAZAG CS:GO
OEMSC DotAOEMSC CSGO

The winners of the event will not only earn their Regional Colours, but will also participate in qualifying for MSSA's National Team Trials.

Reviewing the performance of the Protea CounterStrike: GO team

The group stage draw for CounterStrike: GO at IESF's 9th World Championships - Busan.
The BOO! Protea Esports CounterStrike: GO Team faced off against Korea, Romania, Malaysia and the Philippines at IESF's 9th World Championships - Busan.

 There is no doubt that the team was in a very hard group with Romania and Korea finishing in 2nd and 3rd place at the championships.

The group could be seen as a group of 'death', however, if the truth be told, any of the four groups could be viewed as groups of death.

At world championship level, there are no easy groups. Even if there were easy groups, the winners of such groups would be quickly dispatched by the more robust teams.

Thus, in my opinion, there is not a single team, professional or amateur, in South Africa that would actually have beaten either Korea or Romania to get out of the group stages.

That means that there is a serious problem with the overall standard of play in South Africa in the CounterStrike: GO esports title.

It also means, in my personal opinion, that MSSA should be looking at the CounterStrike: GO teams from a more developmental point  of view.

Westville Boys' shoot up the ladder.


Westville Boys High School in action.
With the Ladder back in full swing, Westville Boys' High School is beginning to show just how good they are.

Being a new team, and having started at the bottom of the ladder. However, the school team rose to be placed 40th overall in the senior ladder.

After having played in a number of MSSA events, the team has begun to work well and seems to have created a seamless gameplay.

Thus it is no surprise, that the team has shot up from 40th to 21st in the senior ladder, and from 27th to 16th in the school teams ladder.

The ladder results as at 11 May 2017 are:
