@es_kan using him is a gamble though, hope his stamina is up to it. Also it is because their school is down 2 starting players and their playing 3-4-3 which needs 3 attackers.
Love how Sakuraba is so confident though. Seems like nothing fazes him, big stages don't worry him. Ryuu seems to have a mindset where he wants to carry more on his shoulders and Sakuraba is like who cares about scrubs.
