NiKo claims ESL One Belo Horizonte MVP award

18/6/2018 - 04:44

FaZe star Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač is the winner of the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award of ESL One Belo Horizonte by HLTV.org and betway.

The Bosnian prodigy beat off competition from teammate Ladislav "⁠GuardiaN⁠" Kovács and from mousesports' Chris "⁠chrisJ⁠" de Jong in a very close race for the prize after leading FaZe to a hard-fought 3-2 victory in the final with a 1.40 rating/+45 KDD.

NiKo led the tournament charts with an average 1.39 rating - his highest at a Big Event in 2018. He ended all 12 maps that he played with above-average ratings, topping the scoreboard for his team in two series and finishing just behind GuardiaN in the other two.

NiKo wins his third MVP medal

Besides leading in rating, NiKo was the best performing player in nine categories, including damage difference per round (+25.7), kills per round (0.88) and percentage of rounds with at least one kill (56.5%). He also features in the top five in four other stats categories, most notably ADR (90,4) and opening kills (35).

This is NiKo's first MVP of the year, his third overall after previously scooping the honour at ESL One New York and SL i-League StarSeries Season 3.

nope

Very deserved. Cromen played well and would make a good addition. However rains T side seems to have suffered after adding him, so maybe they need to rethink their setups a little bit Faze also was so far off the ball in opening kills this tournament. If they get their early round aggression figures out this lineup could contest astralis if everyone shows up Competition here wasn't the highest but it makes me hopeful for the future

I like your thinking , well said. Still i don't think cromen fits this team as their goal is "superteam" around star players. But definitely cromen deserves good and structured team , he has potential. Hope some org will sign him in the near future instead being only stand-in here and there.

Impressive stats

EASY DESERVED

True mvp chrisj

Just see the stats

1.39 vs 1.29 for all maps and the Grandfinal only its 1.40 vs 1.18....

Nice, s1mple is still light year ahead of him

+1 s1mple only had electronic but atleast navi are in a upperhand right now niko is in an EU superteam so anyone can be beast on their games but respect to niko but s1mple is just unexplainable

2018-06-18 04:54

Look I love s1mple but why are you bringing him up to bring Niko down. Just appreciate Nikos skill without constantly comparing him to s1mple.

Ez mode

OnlineJ:(

Cromen

ChrisJ played a lot.

I can taste the tears of all salty haters that call NiKo bad He have #2 stats in 2018 with most games CRY IS FREE

2018-06-18 04:52

chrisj deserves it...

All this kid does is just hold a gay ass off angle with his deag and one clicks people in the side of the head CT side. Fucking terrbile player tbh.....1.4 sensitivity 400dpi using trashcan. Anyone who uses a low sens does not have the dexterity to properly play FPS games on PC. All the shitty baiters use a low sens to click people on the back of the head, or they are equally worthless and use the telescope gun and one click people in the body. I bet this kid doesn't even play FFA Dm's cuz he'd throw his arm out of his socket checking corners. When was the last time you've seen Niko popflash through a smoke, and flick too two people to open up a site??? All this dude does is hold shift and prefire common angles. like wow dude, ur fucking nuts. you can have parkinsons disease and play on 1.4 sens if ur just baiting and clicking heads on common angles. this is why forest and get right are sick players. they play on higher senitivities, and can do more than bait and off angle one click. pce

poor chrisJ..

Well it was between Chris and Niko, hard to avoid niko when he had an insane tournament and won it. I agree Chris probably could have won it as well, but meh.

niko beast but chrisj deserves this more

2018-06-18 04:55

Yes 1.39 rating vs 1.29 rating for all maps and in the Grandfinal only it was 1.40 rating vs 1.18 rating ,NiKo had more than 20+ kills than chrisJ but indeed he ''deserves'' it more

2018-06-18 04:57
