There are only five days until the start of the much-awaited IEM Rio Major in Brazil. The $1.25 Million tournament is set to field the very best CS:GO players and teams in the world. But who has been the best performing players going into the Major?

That’s something we have taken a look at in this article, presenting you with the 15 highest-ranked players from the last three months (only players attending the Challengers Stage).

And if you look at the numbers it comes as no surprise that it’s the French superstar Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, who’s to be found at the very top of the rankings. The Vitality star is followed closely by FURIA’s powerful rifler in Kaike “KSCERATO” Cerato.
