donk wins fourth FACEIT season in a row, outmatches runners-up by over 500 elo

Danil "⁠donk⁠" Kryshkovets's reign in FACEIT continues as the current No. 1 CS2 player in the world won his fourth consecutive FACEIT season, the matchmaking platform announced on Tuesday, April 8th.

donk's stats in this season, which kicked off on November 26th, 2024, are truly incredible. The Spirit superstar only started playing halfway through December, after Spirit won the Perfect World Shanghai Major.

Still, donk played 276 FACEIT games in 96 days — an average of 2.875 games per day — all while practicing with Spirit and attending multiple tier-one LANs all over Europe. donk went on to finish this FACEIT season with an absurd 5334 elo.

donk finished over 500 elo points ahead of BetBoom's rifler Kirill "⁠Magnojez⁠" Rodnov, the runners-up of the FACEIT season 4.

Additionally, the 18-year-old is well on track to defend his title of best CS2 player in the world. donk boasts a 1.42 rating on LAN thus far in 2025 and is slightly ahead of Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut even though Vitality won more trophies than Spirit this year.
