donk’s historic Season 8 run sets new FACEIT CS2 Elo peak, surpassing MaiL09

Team Spirit rifler Danil “donk” Kryshkovets has set a new all-time FACEIT Elo record in Counter-Strike 2 . The player reached a tally of 5,434 points, surpassing the previous mark of 5,415 held by Liam “MaiL09” Tugel. With eight days still remaining in the current season, the 19-year-old prodigy has a real chance to push the record even higher before the window closes.

donk’s incredible FACEIT Season Elo climb

The superstar started season 8, following the Elo soft-reset, at 3,935 Elo. But in the months since, donk has climbed 1,499 Elo across 152 matches, averaging a 1.49 FACEIT Rating. Maintaining that rating across a 10-map tournament run is an incredible feat in its own right, one that very few players have ever managed. But to average that level over 152 matches points to donk’s unprecedented consistency.
