SicK and Ricardo "boltz" Prass had the highest number of matches played out of the players who placed in the money at 32, while Maxim "wippie" Shepelev participated in 34 but failed to place among the top ten as a result of winning just under half of them.
The final week of January also saw Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert make a rare appearance on the leaderboard, playing and winning two matches to finish in 16th. Additionally, Envy's Turkish import Buğra "Calyx" Arkın began playing his first matches after finalizing his move to the Dallas-based organization at the start of the month.
