KSCERATO was the best player in the final. HLTV's MVP article says he posted a 1.68 rating against Spirit after a 1.69 against Falcons in the semi-final. He finished the event on a 1.55 rating, 0.26 ahead of molodoy and donk.

He also topped 10 other stat categories, including ADR and KAST. He won 8 clutches across the event, 5 of them in the grand final, and took HLTV's MVP medal. For Spirit, the final was the biggest test since chopper retired as Spirit's IGL earlier this month.

Spirit's run was not smooth either. On day one they lost a map 13-0 and still won the series, as we reported in Spirit surviving a 13-0 map loss. By the final, though, they had no answer to FURIA's T-side reads.
