Ethan claims StarSeries i-League Season 8 MVP award

27-10-2019 20:02

Thanks to his impressive form throughout the event, Ethan "⁠Ethan⁠" Arnold was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of StarSeries i-League Season 8 by HLTV.org and betway.

The 19-year-old player averaged a 1.24 rating across the 19 maps Evil Geniuses played at the tournament in Belek, Turkey, proving to be the most valuable player and scooping the first MVP award of his career.

Ethan with his first HLTV x betway MVP award

Vincent "⁠Brehze⁠" Cayonte was brilliant in the grand final, helping Evil Geniuses lift the trophy, but the 1.73 rating in the final series of the tournament was not enough to outshine Ethan's consistent performance throughout the event, who only recorded two below-average rated maps, early on against Ninjas in Pyjamas. Ethan recorded impressive Rating (1.24), ADR (86.8), and KAST (76.3%), ranking top five for the event in all three of those categories.

Close to Ethan in the MVP race was his teammate Tsvetelin "⁠CeRq⁠" Dimitrov, as well as standouts for the second and third-placed teams, Kaike "⁠KSCERATO⁠" Cerato and Ludvig "⁠Brollan⁠" Brolin. The FURIA star was the second-best rated player in Turkey, behind Mathieu "⁠ZywOo⁠" Herbaut, and averaged the lowest DPR, 0.54. On the other hand, CeRq stood out with high-impact kills, recording 71 opening frags (65.7% success) and 11 clutches.

so good

Congratz to this german player, born in America, for his first ever MVP award! Must feel great to play in this great country and wealthy scene. Well deserved!

Wait isn't he playing in murica?

2019-10-28 01:37

2019-10-28 01:49

no idea what that was, Just saw Murica and great country and had to ask, because clearly these two words dont fit in one sentence

2019-10-28 21:09

Nothing new here, German, Bulgarian, Turk and Pinoy helping Canadian player to get their goals for American Team. Show me some EU teams with US players helping it? Don't make me bring up Liquid :D.

aaahhh there u are, the euro hero, just in time...

He can still make the lower echelons of the Top 20. His highs this year have been great.

In the past 2 months, EG has beaten astralis more than Astralis has beaten EG (2:1) and EG has won more events AND made more playoffs. All Astralis did was win the major and make one final (the final they lost to EG). They are pretty even rn. The more accurate statement is Astralis=EG

2019-10-28 00:14

"All Astralis did was win the major" Laughed hard af. Cannot imagine a smaller achievement in CS. EGs "big" tournament win is worth considering in comparison

2019-10-28 06:49

EG's run in new york was far more impressive than astralis major win

2019-10-28 08:27

Nah Astralis had to beat Liquid and NRG(EG) to win the major, which was more impressive

2019-10-28 09:30

But after astralis cemented themselves with that win, EG stormed the competition in NY and beat astralis in a bo5

definitely got robbed on this one

2019-10-28 15:50

haha ethan mvp... even cerq deserves it more (even though he plays the easiest weapon in the game and any gold nova can do what he does) the real mvp was flusha (even though he is a cheater, granted all pros are cheaters)

2019-10-27 22:07

2/8

-1/10

2019-10-27 22:22

Totally deserved. Ethan has really been improving as a player for a while now and its really showing now. Consistently pulling the numbers and making some awesome plays.
