Aside from oBo, just one other member from last week's top ten returns, with Duncan "raz" Lee slipping from a second place finish to tenth. Fellow FPL-C promotee Kaitlin "Katie" Boop, who ended last week in third, ended the last week of April just one spot below raz at eleventh.
Also of note is a three-way points tie between Matthew "no_one" Congdon, Josh "PwnAlone" Pigue, and Michael "dapr" Gulino, with no_one pulling ahead with more overall matches played.
A number of other players from the previous top 20 return, including Ricardo "boltz" Prass, Skyler "Relyks" Weaver, and Jake "Stewie2K" Yip, the last of whom placed in ninth by winning eight of the ten games he played. Will "dazzLe" Loafman played just one match more than Stewie2K, although a better overall record having won ten out of his eleven matches allowed for dazzLe to earn himself a spot in the top three.
The top five players in FPL-C for all of April are:

1. | David "J0LZ" Jolin | 1,456 | FPL |
2. | Corbin "C0M" Lee | 1,284 | FPL |

5. | Hunter "koga" Allen | 1,192 |
