This perennial powerhouse finished within the Altador Cup’s top four spots during the tournament’s first four years (including a championship victory in Altador Cup IV), but suffered a 7th place finish last year. Replacing retired forward “Dasher” Soley with “Dinksy” Collibridge, it appears Krawk Island’s come to a crossroad – will they rebound and contend once more, like the Darigan Citadel, or continue their slide?

This Team Is Most Memorable For...
Being a Top 4 powerhouse.
Having a huge fanbase.
They are also viewed as a generally intimidating team to their rivals as they have the potential to bounce back.
They have a high success rate.
The Neoboard craze of Krawk Island "BUKKITS" (NeoSignatures)
They have lots of rivals.
They became the First Place champions of Altador Cup IV.
Their strength is in Yooyuball.
"Dasher" Soley not seeming to retire after claiming he would for about four years!
When they were swept by Team Kreludor in Altador Cup IV!
Being knocked out of the Top 3 spot by the new squad from Shenkuu in Altador Cup II (which sparked KI's revenge in ACIII.)
They are known conventionally as "pirates".
The Krawk Island logo carries an uncanny similarity to the Dubloon Disaster game logo...
Despite the rivalry between themselves and Shenkuu... an interesting alliance has sprung up on the Neoboards in the form of "Ninja Pirates" or "Pirate Ninjas" (team supporters who have allegances to both).
They are marked as the next victims of the "Winner's Curse" (ACIV).
In Altador Cup V, Krawk Island almost had a roster change: "Perhaps the most surprising roster move is the one that, in the end, didn't happen. After last year's championship victory, Krawk Island's Dasher Soley decided to hang up his Yooyuball sling. However a last-minute injury to his rookie replacement, Feldon "Dinksy" Collibridge, left the club with no time to find a replacement who knew all the team's plays. And so, Ol' Dash agreed to come back for one last tournament." - TNT
They became victims of the "Winner's Curse" in ACV, falling into the bottom of the second bracket in the league table.
Aware of the "Winner's Curse", had Team Krawk Island managed to manipulate the 2nd-1st Place pattern to ensure that their rivals in Shenkuu suffered the main blow of the "Curse"? (Shenkuu, predicted to win in ACV, dramatically fell into the third bracket.)
In ACV they formed the "Krawk Citadel Alliance" with Team Darigan Citadel. (Neoboards)
In ACVI Dasher finally retired to be replaced by Feldon "Dinksy" Collibridge. The ol' Krawk was missed by fans.
In ACVI Team Krawk Island made a huge comeback by taking Second Place!
"Gerroff my Yooyuball pitch! I'll retire when I feels like it." ~ Dasher
