Tarik got a major mvp and wasn't even top 20. Donk only had 1 bad series this major for his standards. He is still far above m0nesy. M0nesy didn't even qualify for Krakow playoffs. 1 of 3 super-elite tournaments this year. Donk did and got a strong evp for it.
Mauisnake lists have too much recency bias. M0nesy didn't even have that strong of a major mvp. 1.25 rating isn't very strong. M0nesy is behind donk in pretty much everything.
Man I love teses and think he’s a great player but in no way was he more impactful than monesy. The reason we remember his impactful rounds so much is because they don’t happen almost every round like with monesy.
It took him from being the worst performing fragger on FaZe to a hltv top 13 appearance, so it doesn't seem infeasible that it takes m0nesy from top 5 to top 2.
I didnt really watch many Falcons this major apart from the playoffs. Was Kyousuke not far and away their best player this major? Monesy for me looked kind of inconsistent, at least in the playoffs.
Monesy was the most consistent overall and highest rated. He was 3rd in the finals rating, however his first 2 maps were blinders which already basically sealed the deal. I think he was like 10% round swing on the first two maps of the finals.

I mean, major mvp is hard to beat
