FaZe and Falcons emerged victorious, securing their places at the prestigious LAN event in Copenhagen this September. Here, we break down the top 10 individual performances that shaped the tournament.
10. Florian "syrsoN" Rische - Rating: 6.5
Returning to BIG , syrsoN did not showcase a solid performance, but at this event he was fine reminding everyone of his potential as a top-tier AWPer. Although BIG didn’t make it to the final, syrsoN’s consistent play, particularly in their close encounters against OG and Virtus.pro , was a highlight. Balancing the demands of BLAST with RMR qualifiers, his efforts were commendable, signaling a promising future for his team.
9. David "frozen" Čerňanský - Rating: 6.6
Frozen played a pivotal role in FaZe’s successful run, contributing significantly to their qualification for the Fall Final. His impact was most evident in their matches, where FaZe only dropped one map against pain . Frozen’s composure and skill were integral to the team’s triumph, making him a standout player.
8. Alvaro "SunPayus" Garcia - Rating: 6.6
The Spaniard delivered an impressive performance, particularly in the group’s final, where his clutch plays were instrumental in securing LAN qualification. SunPayus continues to prove himself as one of the most reliable AWPers in the scene, and his contribution was vital to his team's success.
7. Mădălin-Andrei "MoDo" Mirea - Rating: 6.6
6. Fredrik "REZ" Sterner - Rating: 6.7
NIP’s early exit was a disappointment, especially with their shocking loss to AMKAL , who played with a coach in the lineup. However, REZ’s individual performance was nothing short of spectacular. His efforts were a silver lining in an otherwise disastrous campaign, showcasing his ability to shine even when the team falters.
5. Denis "electroNic" Sharipov - Rating: 6.8
In what was one of his best showings for Virtus.pro , electroNic once again proved his worth as a top-tier rifler. Unfortunately, his stellar performance wasn’t enough to carry VP to the Fall Final. Nonetheless, electroNic remains a player to watch as VP looks to regroup and push forward.
4. Robin "ropz" Kool - Rating: 6.9
Ropz is back, and FaZe is finally finding their stride after months of inconsistency. His performance was instrumental in their successful campaign, with ropz delivering when it mattered most. As FaZe continues to integrate their roster, ropz’s form will be crucial in their quest for titles.
3. Petr "fame" Bolyshev - Rating: 7.0
Despite VP’s exit at the hands of Falcons, fame delivered an exceptional performance throughout the tournament. His ability to consistently deliver high-impact plays makes him one of VP’s most valuable assets. While it wasn’t enough to secure a spot in the Fall Final, fame’s performance has solidified his reputation as a rising star.
2. Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski - Rating: 7.0
EliGE’s situation is all too familiar: a standout individual performance overshadowed by his team’s shortcomings. Despite his best efforts, Complexity fell short against Falcons, who weren’t the toughest of opponents on paper. EliGE’s consistency and drive remain unquestionable, but Complexity will need more than just his heroics to compete at the highest level.
1. Helvijs "broky" Saukants - Rating: 7.0
Broky was unstoppable at the Fall Showdown, delivering a series of dominant performances that secured FaZe’s ticket to Copenhagen. His clutch plays and composure under pressure were instrumental in FaZe’s success, particularly in the final where he shone the brightest. As FaZe heads into the Fall Final, all eyes will be on broky to see if he can maintain this level of play.
