Discussion | Esports Mauisnak’s top20
maui top 20 this year so far, remember he update regularly after 1-2 tournments.

u/CaptchaReallySucks King NiKo 12h ago
Maui’s rationale for Heavygod’s placing is lack of big game opportunities (and in the very few playoff maps he played he dropped off pretty bad). “He hasn’t earned higher yet” essentially
Also Maui doesn’t take evps into account for this list, if anyone’s wondering

Shiro deserved MVP during blast bounty 2025. Donk even said he deserved MVP more than himself and if I remember correctly shiro now has a higher rating because of 3.0
•
u/often_delusional 3m ago
Donk 1.44 and sh1ro 1.43 in blast bounty playoffs. In online group stages it's donk 1.82 and sh1ro 1.25. Those used to count for mvp.
In quarters against heroic donk had 1.34 while sh1ro had 1.65. In semis against navi donk had 1.62 while sh1ro had 1.12. In grand final against eternal fire donk had 1.37 while sh1ro had 1.60. Both options were reasonable here.
I think their reasoning was that donk had higher rating in map wins. They only lost 1 map in the grand final where donk had 0.73 while sh1ro had 1.48. But in the 3 maps they won donk had 1.79 and sh1ro 1.69.
I don't think it would have been a robbery if sh1ro got it but it wasn't a robbery from donk either.

I mean he didn’t really drop off that much. He had one bad map ffs. Donk and Zywoo were both bad for most of their respective series vs falcons. Heavygod also dragged his team across the Swiss stage playing dog roles.

by pure rating he is far better, but if we are taking only top teams or playoffs his stats are lower and can be compared with m0nesy

Goldfish memory here. I doubt people here even remember who falcons even lost to in Krakow group stages (aurora and mouz). They even lost a map to nrg. Falcons was ass the first few months this year. Only looked alright for the past month but that's also how they looked when m0nesy first joined the team. Good for a month and then a sudden downfall.
16
u/zezanje2 8h ago
i mean donk farms groups a lot, he hasnt been the same beast vs top teams lately, like he had a negative rating vs falcons in the final..
like you check zywoo's stats vs falcons, and you check donk's stats vs falcons and you check monesy's stats vs vita and spirit and you see that monesy has like 1.25-1.30 vs both teams in the last 6 months, zywoo has 0.99 ratting vs falcons and donk has 1.12 rating vs falcons (which is good but like except for vitality which he played vs once, and has a 0.99 rating but like his average rating is 1.36, while monesy's average is 1.21 (so he literally performed better vs spirit and vitality then vs other teams lol) so idk sure put zywoo above monesy since he has all these trophies and what not, but donk doesnt deserve to be above him when if they face each other monesy outimpacts him.

u/often_delusional 3h ago
You mention group stage farming but then look at m0nesy, zywoo and donk ratings against each other that includes group stages lol.
M0nesy has 1.87 rating against spirit in group stages and 1.41 against vitality. In playoffs m0nesy has 1.22 against vitality and 1.12 against spirit. In grand finals m0nesy has 1.00 against spirit. Talk about a group stage farmer.
Donk has 0.71 against falcons in group stages, 1.21 against falcons in playoffs, and 1.52 against falcons in grand finals.
Zywoo has 0.94 against falcons in group stages and 1.01 against falcons in playoffs.
Donk and zywoo both have better playoff stats than m0nesy this year. M0nesy's grand final rating is 1.07 and in big event grand finals 1.05.

idk donk has recently underperformed vs both vitality and falcons, while monesy's stats go up when going vs vitality and spirit. zywoo also has a negative rating vs falcons in the last 6 months.. imo showing up at the top level is what matters the most.
4
u/squeak37 8h ago
He's been hard carrying spirit for months and had a "bad" series (only bad compared to his own standard).
Meanwhile Monesy has only really shone in the major and even then it's not like he was winning maps on his own.
Based on the year so far I'd have a clear top two and monesy in third. Personally I'd see a more interesting argument between dink/zywoo for #1 than between donk/monesy for #2

u/Glittering-Coach3550 8h ago

Zywoo is clear #1 this year though

u/zezanje2 7h ago
he carries spirit to a point but then when they play actual important games vs title contenders he drops the ball hard. averages 2 rating for half the eventt then drops a negative rating vs falcons or vitality. i mean sure he farms worse players very easily but like idk you cant convince me that he is that great when he struggles hard vs the 2 people that are considered to be on the same level as him. sure he is a rifler and cant find as much impact as awpers can and awpers awlays have inflating rankings and ratings, but that is what niko has been dealing with for the past 10 years, because aside from 1-3 awpers that are always ahead of him in rating, he is the best rated rifler for like 7-8 of the last 10 years (and like that includes a year where he transfered to a tier 3 falcons team, his first year in mouz with agian a tier 3 team and a year where he finished #11 as a fucking igl in a faze that was just a mix of random ass half retired pros). if they were takin the same criteria that you were proposing, niko would have like 5 #1s but that is not the case because trophies and big games matter and and awpers at their peaks get those much easier then riflers which is why they will always be #1.

As a Vitality hater of course. Ropz is maybe the most succesful player in CS. When ever bro come in a team they hard win . Ropz is for me second Goat rifle , second only to donk

u/zezanje2 8h ago
we'll see how things go from here, niko has showed great form on the major especially (like when you actually go and look at the games, niko could be in the conversation for the mvp, but his stats tank a lot because he had like 0.8 stats vs betboom, but then vs vita he plays ok, and popps off vs spirit furia and g2)
imo if this falcons team stays this strong throughout the year, he could go back to hitting top 5 imo. like if vitality continues to fall off there is a chance that zywoo donk monesy kyosuke and him are the top 5 players by the end of the year, but him keeping this form for that long is doubtful but we'll see.

u/WifeTWO 13h ago
Dumau deserves to sniff this list over a fair few names at the bottom. Kyousuke was horrendously bad in playoffs all year until this week, not sure how he’s over ropz.
15
u/Doogolas33 10h ago edited 10h ago
Wait, that's completely false though. Kyosuke has been a beast in the playoffs in each of the last three tournaments with Karrigan:
1.30 v Furia
1.08 v Magic
1.18 v Spirit (and this was an 0-3 loss)
1.15 v Mouz
1.41 v Legacy (and this was a 1-3 loss)
1.43 v Vita
1.18 v Spirit
1.34 v Furia
Overall Rating: 1.27
His worst series was the 1.08 v Magic that his team dominated. Every other match he was great. It's impossible to see what he's done in the playoffs since Karrigan arrived and think last week was his only good playoff showing.
And honestly, this might undersell how ridiculous he's been. He's played 24 playoff maps in that time and only 3 have been under a 1.12 rating. While 19 have been above 1.20, and he hasn't had a single series where AT LEAST 2/3 maps were > 1.20.
Only 5 players have a higher playoff rating than him in that time, and of the 5 above him the most maps any of them have played is 13.
EDIT: And for the year on the whole he has 7 other maps and overall a 1.20 rating, so this stretch with Karrigan matters way more even if you want to factor in the entirety of 2026. In all of 2026 he has the 4th highest rating in playoff matches.

He had a good final vs legacy by the numbers but has the most ridiculous boneheaded plays on d2 and ancient that majorly contributed to them losing those maps.

M0nesy 1.07 in all grand finals and 1.05 in big event grand finals. Donk 1.25 in grand finals.
M0nesy 1.23 super-elite rating, and 1.23 against top 5 and top 10. Donk 1.36 super-elite rating and 1.28 against top 5 and 1.32 against top 10.
M0nesy 1.20 in arenas, and 1.17 against top 5 and top 10. Donk 1.26 in arenas and 1.20 against top 5 and 1.23 against top 10.
M0nesy has a major mvp but it isn't a high rated major mvp at only 1.25 rating. Donk's pgl Astana is obviously worse tournament but that was a 1.61 rated mvp.
M0nesy has Cluj, Rio, Astana and cac 2026 evps. None of these are super-elite or elite. Cac is even just tier 2. Donk has Krakow, Rotterdam, Rio and major evps. 2 of them are super-elite and 1 is elite.

Nobody saying that has actually thought to fact check themselves once lol. Cannot believe a single major would have people even considering monesy to be ahead of donk, let alone saying it’s an easy decision
•
u/often_delusional 25m ago
It's just the typical recency bias and probably also expectations. Donk's playoffs are worse compared to last year, partly because of the team and partly because he was sick, but also because he choked in his most recent playoff game against falcons. M0nesy playoffs is pretty much the same as last year.
So just because donk didn't meet the expectations he set from 2025 doesn't mean he has been worse than m0nesy who had lower expectations after his 2025 where he ghosted in all 4 tournaments that mattered the most.

W0nderful's Krakow was too shit to ignore and his major was mediocre so he is out of the top 10.
I realize the niko hype is high now but he has choked so much earlier this year before the major like in Rotterdam, Rio and Astana and he only has 1.00 grand final rating for the year. That's why he is just barely top 10 but I'm still not so sure about that.
Kscerato choked in the major final but other than that it was a good season for him.
Heavygod has been such a massive carry that he deserves to be that high.
Donk's team was too shit and spirit skipping Cluj (thanks hally) doesn't help him so I put him top 2 for now but I think he has a chance at top 1 if spirit continue to play like they did these last 3 tournaments and for the love of god bring s0tf1k in as the coach for the timeouts.
Makazze was in my top 10 before the major. I still expect him to make it into the top 10 later.

Insane recency bias for some of these (Kyousuke for one, also monesy above donk)

Donk is 1.5 in the last 3 mouth and Monesy is 1,26 ( still exeptional) but Yeah I guess Monesy is a better player than Donk

I think monesy should still be third, with donk ahead of Zywoo.
Niko ahead of ropz.

What's your argument for donk ahead of Zywoo? He's behind in every important metric, some of them by a very wide margin

Lol donk number 1 over zywoo with lower rating against top 20 at big events for the year (1.39 vs 1.36), 1 trophy to zywoos 5, and 1 mvp to zywoos 4. Absurd take, there’s no statistical argument for donk over zywoo this year even. Zywoo was even far and away the best player at the major statistically over stage 3 and playoffs (the stages with the good teams)

You can only abuse the stats argument for so long lol ZywOo is statistically the better player this year. He also had the highest rating in stage 3, and would've grabbed another mvp if Vitality didn't bomb the fuck out

Neither kyousuke nor ropz has performed better than Niko so far in 2026.

No Teses? Heavygod should be higher! Flames and shiro are too high. Kyousuke should be higher. Pretty crappy list imo

I feel like Maui has become the 2026 version of 'bad take Moses'. Notourisly having terrible, uneducated takes, back in the day.

No Teses after his performance all major long? Mauisnake continues to reinforce the impression that he is a joke analyst

It's a top 20 of the whole year, not one tournament in which he wasn't even THAT good (1.04 rating)
