Mareks “YEKINDAR” Gaļinskis has claimed his career-first Most Valuable Player award by HLTV x 1xBet after concluding FURIA’s title-winning campaign at PGL Masters Bucharest with a monstrous grand final performance against Nemiga.
The Latvian’s 1.56 rating in the best-of-five affair dwarfed everyone on the server and especially Danil “molodoy” Golubenko and Daniel “syph0” Ageyev, who had been his two closest contenders for the award but fizzled out in the title decider.


YEKINDAR’s tournament stats
In combination with his great play in the previous two rounds, YEKINDAR dominated the playoffs charts at a 1.37 rating (#1), 91.6 damage per round (#1), 0.82 kills per round (#1), 0.18 opening kills per round (joint #1) and a +3.42% round swing (#1).
He was ultimately only outdone by Aleksandr “zorte” Zagodyrenko in overall rating (1.27 to 1.31) after making up for an up-and-down start to the tournament in the first three rounds of the group stage.
