Highest-Rated Players at the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 After Day 2

The first three rounds of Stage 1 at the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 have been chaotic, with several favourites stumbling early. At the same time, teams like FlyQuest and M80 have shown impressive form, both starting 3-0 and securing early qualification for Stage 2.

With two days completed, the individual leaderboard is beginning to take shape. Below is a full look at the highest-rated players so far, measured by HLTV Rating 3.0.

No Faze player in top 15

Vexite leads the event with a strong 1.64 rating across four maps, helping FlyQuest storm to a flawless 3-0. xiELO and xKacpersky follow closely after strong showings for PARIVISION and Ninjas in Pyjamas.

FlyQuest and M80 each have two players inside the top six, underlining their consistency across the opening matches.

Twistzz is the highest-rated FaZe player with a 1.15 rating after their three matches, where FaZe are 2-1 down.

More turbulence is expected as Stage 1 continues, with several big names needing strong recoveries to avoid an early exit. Let me know if you need an updated leaderboard after tonight’s matches.
