With the FPL week leading up to Fragadelphia 12, many young players such as oBo and Victor "food" Wong top the leaderboard along with MDL players such as David "Sneaky" Polster and James "hazed" Cobb.
As the player break begins as well, professional players have been appearing more in the ladder, with Keith "NAF" Markovic and Jake "Stewie2K" Yip just barely breaking into the top 20, with Stewie2K raking in 37 matches.
With it being the first week of a new month, this week also served as the first week of FPL for two new players who were promoted from FPL-C. The notorious Moldovan Marian "tyfoon" Lesnic performed well, placing 8th in his debut week. Randy "Smiley" Sandoval, on the other hand, placed in 48th with only four matches played. The full standings can be found on FACEIT's website.
FACEIT also announced that Jonathan "Jonji" Carey was named the winner of FPL NA for the month of July, with a 59% win rate.
As mentioned earlier, a new month is underway, and as is a new season of FPL-C.
