Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut has claimed the HLTV x 1xBET Most Valuable Player award at StarSeries Fall after a dominant run that left no doubt about who the tournament's best player was.
The Frenchman averaged a 1.50 rating at the event, his highest since a similarly unambiguous IEM Krakow MVP early in the year and a staggering 0.24 clear of the next best player (Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato at 1.26).
With a 1.51-rated grand final performance against Aurora, ZywOo left his closest competition to the award in the dust in Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo, who was very much in the race leading up to the grand final but went missing in the best-of-five.
Off the back of that finish, Vitality's superstar dominates the tournament leaderboards with a 92.2 ADR (#1), 0.89 KPR (#1), 0.57 DPR (#1) and +6.13% Round Swing (#1).
The award extends ZywOo's all-time overall record to 33 medals, and the Big Event record to 26, just two away from doubling Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev's tally.
