Ahilles revealed his ranking of players across all positions - who made the top list
Former 1win Team coach Timur Ahilles Kulmukhambetov has published an author’s ranking of professional players for each position. The lists were released on his personal Telegram channel.
According to Ahilles, the idea for the ranking came after a long period of observing the competitive scen - from tier-1 and tier-2 tournaments to open qualifiers and streamer events. He noted that existing scouting tables for European and CIS players have long lost their relevance, which is why he decided to create his own evaluation system.
I have been closely following all official matches since The International, and that’s when the idea to create my own player rankings for every position came up. That’s why I am announcing" the most honest player ranking". I will try to update it every month and remain as objective as possible toward the players.
When compiling the lists, Kulmukhambetov focused on statistics from the past three months, tournament level, opinions of professional players, as well as his own expert assessment.
Matthew Whitemon Filemon from Tundra Esports topped the ranking of position five supports with 91 points. The first place among position four supports was taken by Martin Saksa Sazdov - largely due to Team Yandex’s recent victory at DreamLeague Season 27.
There is no clear leader in third place, as three players earned 90 points each: Tundra Esports offlaner Neta 33 Shapira, Team Spirit player Magomed Collapse Khalilov and Ammar ATF Al-Assaf from Team Falcons.
The best midlaner in the ranking was Stanislav Malr1ne Potorak, also representing Falcons, while the best carry was Ilya Yatoro Mulyarchuk from Team Spirit.
Ahilles’ ranking also highlights the teams that proved to be the strongest this season, as their players topped every list: Tundra Esports, Team Spirit, Team Falcons and Team Yandex. Notably, each of these teams has secured multiple championships at tier-1 tournaments this year.
Earlier, Cyberscore presented its own ranking of the top Dota 2 teams for the 2025/26 season.
