While normally oscillating outside of the top 10 every other week, Victor "food" Wong has fallen only to 3rd, being usurped by the aforementioned REZU and JT. One of the notable standouts in the top 5 is Jason "jasonR" Ruchelski, whose stream-oriented and casual attitude was harshy criticized following the demotion of multiple FPL players for similar accusations of behavior.
For the most part, the remainder of the leaderboard remains standard, with MDL players and a few Pro League players taking the top spots, with few major events taking place last week. However, this week may be one of the last for Kevin "kRYSTAL" Amend, who is reportedly being replaced by Mathias "MSL" Lauridsen on Rogue.
The full standings are available on FACEIT's website.
While the last FPL week for October has come to a close, the FPL-C season for October is still going, with the top two spots still up for grabs as players cram in as many wins as possible into the last four days of the month.
Rank | Name | Points | Prize |
1. | Kevin "4pack" Przypasniak | 1340 | $1,250 + FPL |
2. | Rahul "curry" Nemani | 1308 | $750 + FPL |
3. | Leighton "Vila" Vieira | 1258 | $500 |
4. | Shakhan "beaverknight" Kadyrbekov | 1192 | $250 |
5. | saffee | 1180 | $250 |
Note: FPL-C prizes are distributed monthly, none of these players have won anything
Kevin "4pack" Przypasniak and Rahul "curry" Nemani continue to dominate the top two spots in FPL-C, with both players being the only with over 1,300 points. While Shakhan "beaverknight" Kadyrbekov continues to fight his way up, Leighton "Vila" Vieira has made a surprise appearance, marking their first appearance in the top 5 of FPL-C after multiple months in Rank G previously.
Following the snap of Milos Nedeljkovic's fingers, FPL-C has seen a few new players from the upper echelon join the ranks of the Challenger League. However, only able to get in a few days of play, they've yet to make a huge impact in the rankings. Sam "s0m" Oh — who was not given the same treatment as Owen "oBo" Schlatter by FACEIT, despite public outcry — has found his way into the top 20 in 19th, just 70 points shy of the top 5.
As with FPL, the current FPL-C leaderboard can be found on the FACEIT website.
