Magisk claims BLAST Pro Series Lisbon MVP award

15-12-2018 23:44

Emil "⁠Magisk⁠" Reif is the winner of the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award of BLAST Pro Series Lisbon by HLTV.org and betway.

The 20-year-old scoops the honour thanks to his remarkable consistency, having recorded 1.25+ ratings in every map won by Astralis throughout the tournament. This ultimately set him apart from teammate Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen, who had a disappointing performance on Cache in the final, in what was a very close race for the award.

Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev was also in contention for the prize, but he fell off the radar on the last two maps of the final, which brought his tournament rating down to 1.22.

Magisk wins his first MVP award

Magisk, who averaged a 1.39 rating - his second best at a Big Event -, had the highest rating of the event, together with dupreeh, and led the tournament charts for KDD (+68), damage difference per round (+26.4), deaths per round (0.51) and total headshots (86).

This is Magisk's very first MVP award, capping off a fantastic year from the 20-year-old, who has averaged a 1.17 rating at Big Events since joining Astralis, in February.

should have been Niko tbh

Statpad1mple should be out of the top 10 tbh. His exit/eco frags are useless and him saving his guns all the time DO NOT help his team to win at all, that’s why they can only win when ELECTRONIC is carrying his ass. Device = winner S1mple = stat padder

A statpadder, is basically someone who only cares about stats

2018-12-16 00:39

Who just plays for the kills. Like imagine taking 40k in a easy match or increasing kills by taking eco or exit frags so that he in scoreboard looks good.

Device is a god. Nobody can touce Device. He has the heart of a champion, the body of a Green God and the reaction speed of Neo from the Matrix. It’s all about Devvedeluxe – your 2x Major winner, defending Major MVP and Intel Grand Slam winner. Congrats Devvedeluxe for being the winner of 10 tier 1 tournaments and winner of 7 (!) MVPs in a calendar year. You p1mple fans and all you other salty fans are so fucking mad right now :D

A weird way to spell device

NOT DEVICE WTF? LOST ALL RESPECT FOR HLTV

A ”real” mvp? Different path for this site into 2019?

device ?

Finally a deserved mvp

Deserved! Finally some MVP that is not printed for device, jeez!

Device top 2, LuL

kjerbye on suicide watch = D

Deserved! But this isnt his first MVP? He got one with North as well.

When was that? Epicenter? Edit: Nope, that was k0nfig

Before that.

2018-12-16 00:09

Don't think so. The only wins they had before that as dignitas was a a local tournament called League of Sharks and a bunch of online and LAN qualifiers

2018-12-16 00:20

Nope, 100% sure. They were equally good both tournaments but the first one felt like magisk robbed k0nfig and the other one the opposite. The adminis even corrected the text now, so that people understand this was the first one in astralis

2018-12-16 14:43

Since he joined Astralis

Doesnt say that.

haha yeeehawww

OH WOW, not device? How could it possibly be?! Probably got gifted enough mvps to take the top1 spot for 2018. HLTV staff, make sure you double check just to be sure!

Its really boring to watch games with astralis....

it's really boring to watch teams not being able to challenge astralis*

2018-12-16 00:26

Deserved tomato //

2018-12-15 23:52

deserved

Omg s1mple > astralis, but mvp majisk roflotournament

deserved for Magiskgod

2018-12-15 23:55

Dupreeh played better overall imo. He was also better in the final but whatever...

2018-12-15 23:56

Better then S1mple and Niko

2018-12-15 23:57

rigged should have been device for sure

Not device PogChamp

2018-12-15 23:59

Device got robbed.

gg deserved.

nice magiskboYYYY

GG Magisk, deserved

Amazing player. Congrats North on losing him and k0nfig at his peak

2018-12-16 00:04

FINALLY NOT A BOTVICE!!!!

2018-12-16 00:05

Dupreeh could drop 2.0 rating and they will still not give it to him... guy is entry fragger dropping 1.39

They tell you right in the article why he didnt win it He was worse in the grand finals simple as that

2018-12-16 00:13

like in IEM Chicago device was worse than dupreeh in finals with same event rating?

2018-12-16 00:42

Dupreeh wasnt in the running it was device or Xyp9x Dupreeh had far too many eco rounds and device was better in maps won

2018-12-16 00:47

so why their rating doesnt account for ecos? if you cant trust rating then it shouldnt be used in the first place.

2018-12-16 00:48

Dupreeh had the lowest playoffs rating in the team Device carried quarters and was also incredibly important in semis unlike dupreeh I couldnt remember why so i had to check

2018-12-16 00:49

Fuck,rip mr.nikolai

dupreeh :(

Poor dupreeh, robbed one more time. You should shame hltv. This is not fair..

2018-12-16 00:10

Jesus it was extremely tight and it was not 'robbed'

2018-12-16 00:11

hltv logic ''hey lets give mvp to someone else, device still will be top1, lets boost magisk to top 5''

WHAT?! not device?!

2018-12-16 00:22

nope, because device did not have the highest rating this time.

2018-12-16 00:28

as if this matters to hltv

2018-12-16 08:46

it does matter... every time device has been the mvp, he had the highest rating on astralis.

2018-12-18 00:13

DEVICE ROBBED

insane

where is device?

useless player

Haters gonna hate...

2018-12-16 00:50

yes you are

2018-12-16 01:04

cmon you're not surprised that device didn't win. hltv tends to give mvp's to the player with the highest rating on the winning team. when device won he had the highest rating on astralis. this time, magisk had the highest rating and was best in the final. so he won. ez.

2018-12-16 00:30

Wow, first time when astralis playing wasn't scammed from mvp

2018-12-16 02:25

2018-12-16 03:14
