Rank S Recap - Spongey soaks up some cash
The first week of February Rank S has ended, and Gabe "Spongey" Greiner has emerged as this week's champion after claiming $1,301.19 on the daily ladder. He beat out Mythic streamer Erik "fl0m" Flom by earning about $300 more than the Rank S regular.
Spongey had been steadily climbing the ladders this year, however he never made a big splash, rarely earning over a few hundred dollars in weeks past. However, with this performance he has effectively doubled his Rank S earnings for 2019.

The big story this week is the arrival of Spongey to the top 10 list, after claiming his position by rising nine spots.
Over in Rank G, the top five earners this week were:
| Rank | Name | $ Prize |
| 1. | Joshua "KiiroKami" Kim |
$600 |
| 2. | Jonathon "djay" Dallal |
$350 |
| 3. | Andy "devastation" Parr |
$250 |
| 4. | Alfonso "krZ" Fiorani |
$175 |
| 5. | "Brian2k" |
$125 |
In Rank G this week, Joshua "KiiroKami" completely blew out the competition as he earned almost double the points as Jonathon "djay" Dallal. Along with Rank S, Rank G will be experiencing large changes in the next two weeks, with the prize pool being upped to $3,000, and the top ten as opposed to the top five having opportunities to earn money from the service.
Editor's note: An earlier version of this article failed to account for Rank S payout amounts having been changed across the board on the platform's site, thus leading to incorrect values.
