Shuttle's Team Humiliates Incompetent President Calm

Throughout the forums of Korea, the word "incompetent" can be heard: "Calm is incompetent, and he is ruining MonstarZ University!" Calm's approval rating as president of MonstarZ University was already sliding ever since MonstarZ University's loss against K-University in the K-Jungman Ro.8 back in 2026-09-04, but now that Calm's team has lost to Shuttle's "clown car" university, we might be seeing a nose-dive in approval right now as public opinions turn sharply against Calm.

I mean, they are clowns: Shuttle with green clown hair, BarrackS with orange clown hair...

Will Calm be able to salvage this situation and turn the one-time champion team MonstarZ University around? https://eloboard.com/colleges

And what's happening to FlaSh's former student Sojuyang? FlaSh and Sojuyang were both in C9 University, so will she be okay after what happened? https://eloboard.com/players/619

And why do women love doing Hive ZvZ so much, and why does OriGgung think Devourers can hit Lurkers despite playing StarCraft for two years now? https://eloboard.com/players/723

Find out more in this exciting recap!

Set 1 - Vitaming (Tier 6 Terran) <KnockOut> HyoZZang (Tier 6 Protoss)

The first half of the game was typical Vitaming dropping the ball against Protoss, but then HyoZzang recalled into mines, and something snapped inside Vitaming. Then the last five minutes of this game were pure cinema, and Vitaming's surprising comeback victory was a joy to watch (just look at the joy on her face when she won). MonstarZ wins game one. The reason why this is also ironic is because just one week ago, Vitaming was fucking up hard with her control groups against Protoss, much to Jidoodoo's pain:

Good! I like seeing Jidoodoo in pain! People don't change unless they are in pain.

Set 2 - Alisongi (Tier 6 Protoss) <Radeon> PingPing (Tier 6 Zerg)

PingPing took a sneaky Zerg third base at the bottom left corner of the map, and Alisongi didn't scout it. It's a shame because going into this match, Alisongi was on a 10-0 win streak, and expectations were high: https://eloboard.com/players/799

Set 3 - Jidoodoo (Tier 3 Terran) <Attitude> Yoning (Tier 3 Zerg)

At least Jidoodoo didn't die to another 4-pool this time! Man, she's been dying a lot to 4 pools lately:

Set 4 - Bright (Tier 6 Zerg) <Attitude> OriGgung (Tier 6 Zerg)

Bright was really hellbent on killing her own Zerglings this game. But hey, it could be worse! She could accidentally kill her own Hydra Den or something.

So how did OriGgung lose this Hive ZvZ game? Well after the game, Shuttle asked OriGgung, "Why did you pick Devourers after seeing Lurkers?" OriGgung's response?

"Because I didn't know what to do."

Really great coaching there, soO! https://eloboard.com/players/180

So maybe it's best lower-tier Zergs stay away from those kitchen knives Muta battles.

Set 5 - Sunshine (Tier 4 Terran) <Radeon> Jjiking (Tier 4 Zerg)

Sunshine looked like garbage this game, but maybe that's because Jjiking is just that good at the ZvT match-up: https://eloboard.com/players/574

Storyline to note: Jjiking was a former MonstarZ player just one month ago before Calm kicked her out, and then Shuttle welcomed Jjiking into Dreams University. Man, Jjiking really got off that sinking ship, huh? Oh, and Calm said you're not good enough for MonstarZ University? Well, Jjiking just kicked your ass, Calm.

Another interesting storyline: after the match, Jjiking posted an announcement thanking K-University professors for helping her out. Now, there may be some politics at play here. See, the top 3 teams right now are K-University, JSA University, and MonstarZ University: https://eloboard.com/colleges

Why would K-University (the top dog right now) go out of its way to help out Shuttle? Nobody takes Shuttle seriously, and Calm's still very popular, so why help Dreams University against MonstarZ? Because K, the chairman of K-University, knows Calm's team is the biggest threat to K-University's reputation right now. Because K doesn't have to worry about JSA, the lower-class "junk-can university" that's doing degenerate stunts like Sijosae ripping off his shirt every time a JSA student chokes on stream. K-University doesn't have to prove anything to JSA University because K knows the public can see JSA for what it is: lower-class compared to K-University's triple diamond stars. But Calm's a big name, and Calm having FreshTomato on his team makes MonstarZ a powerful player, so why not knock them down a peg by helping out Jjiking's Dream University behind the scenes? Let the other universities fight amongst themselves while K-University rides their momentum from winning the recent K-Jungman until everyone can see that K-University is the undisputed GOAT. Divide and conquer.

Set 6 - Sojuyang (Tier 5 Terran) <KnockOut> Jooseori (Tier 5 Protoss)

Good old reliable marine rush against Protoss takes an easy quick win. Surely this win will soothe Calm's anger at Sojuyang's recent 0-4 record, and Calm forgives her now, right?

...right?

Set 7 - Jidoodoo (Tier 3 Terran) <Attitude> Yoning (Tier 3 Zerg)

Jidoodoo tries going mech, but Yoning's Queens says, "Let's extend Jidoodoo's downward spiral even further!" Jidoodoo has apparently not hit rock bottom yet: https://eloboard.com/players/422

Set 8 - Sojuyang (Tier 5 Terran) <KnockOut> Jooseori (Tier 5 Protoss)

Big mistake losing that first Vulture, but to be honest, Sojuyang played surprisingly well after that early game blunder. She almost came back, but ultimately Sojuyang's final score for this event was 1-1. And Jidoodoo's final score was 0-2. So take a guess who Calm is going to blame for his team's loss! Write your answer down before reading on!

Tournament Review

After the Bo9, Calm expelled Sojuyang for poor performance, but Calm decided to keep Jidoodoo, Sunshine, and Vitaming as the three remaining Terrans on the team. Now, you might be wondering, "Huh? What the fuck, Calm? That doesn't make any sense! Sojuyang actually won a game, and Jidoodoo's been slumping hard lately! Why not expel Jidoodoo?"

Oh you sweet summer child...

That's because Jidoodoo is one of the top StarCraft streamers on SOOP. And Calm can't risk pissing off his fans. Calm needs the viewership count. So who cares how many more games Jidoodoo will lose in the future? Calm will never expel Jidoodoo, and he will keep sending her out because to Calm, it's all about brand recognition and optics, don't you get it? Calm can't recruit another Tier 3 Terran into MonstarZ because then he might have to bench Jidoodoo. And what would her fans think if Calm "mistreats" Jidoodoo? Don't you see? Calm is the good guy! Calm wants you to believe that! It's all Ample's fault for not doing proper Terran coaching in MonstarZ University! Go blame Ample instead! It's his fault! Calm is not incompetent and is not responsible for anything bad that's going on!

For the record: Hak (the right-hand-man at K-University who's often credited for K-Uni winning three championships) was watching Calm's stream when Calm was scolding Sojuyang live on air after the match. Calm said, "Sojuyang hit me in the face" with her poor performance. Hak's response to Calm's statement:

"If Sojuyang hit him in the face, then Jidoodoo ran him over with a truck."

https://www.fmkorea.com/10450546083

Based, Hak! This is why MonstarZ fans should all become K-Uni fans. Hell, everyone should be K-Uni fans in a perfect world. No more of this SKT1 vs KT debate, and stop simping for League of Legends teams. It's all about K-University in 2026, so let's fucking go:



But here's the silver lining in all this: after Sojuyang was kicked out of MonstarZ University by Calm, minutes (and I mean literally minutes) after Sojuyang was picked up by BB University, which is home to Leta, Stork, and Hyuk: https://eloboard.com/colleges/20

Hyuk was super nice to Sojuyang during the BB University welcoming ceremony:

https://www.fmkorea.com/10450890483

Leta even spoke highly of Sojuyang:

https://www.fmkorea.com/10450902192

So good for you, Sojuyang! She's turning over a new leaf. Maybe soon, there will be another university showdown, but this time it's between MonstarZ University and BB University. Then Sojuyang will get her revenge on Calm by stomping MonstarZ University, just like Jjiking did during this event after Calm kicked her out.

In conclusion, who was the biggest winner of this event? Shuttle. Everyone was mocking Shuttle's Dreams University as the "clown car" university, but like the Joker in Batman, who got the last laugh? Shuttle got the last laugh because he was literally rolling on the floor laughing after receiving 319,002 Star Balloons!
