Second place went to Amer “Miracle” Al-Barkawi Despite much smaller number of matches only 32 maps he showed almost identical level of play with KDA 9.95 proving that even with limited games he remains a world class player

Third in the ranking was Ilya “Squad1x” Kuvaldin His KDA of 9.55 across 122 maps shows high consistency and confident performance over distance Following him are Egor “Nightfall” Grigorenko with KDA 9.41 over 250 maps and Artem “Lorenof” Melnik 9.14 across 213 maps

Notably Yatoro did not appear in this ranking although many considered him the main candidate for best player of the year However statistics show that in 2025 it was Gpk who became the main benchmark of individual efficiency outperforming both famous stars and current world champions
