Despite a temporary invasion by foreigners, food has once again come out on top in FPL.

While no single team dominated the FPL standings this week, a handful of international players in the states for ESL Pro League Season 7 Finals did try their hands at the platform during their stay. Notably, phenoms Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev and Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş of Natus Vincere and Space Soldiers placed in the top twenty. The full standings can be found on FACEIT's website.

The May's FPL-C has just shy of two weeks left, and Ryan "Winsum" Johns still holds the lead — he has some extra time on his hands after getting the boot from Freedom 35, after all. Both Josh "JoshRT" Lee and Ben "ben1337" Smith have moved up in the standings, with rhyme-slinging Gianni "karanni" Dfana holding down the fifth spot in the table.
