Top 10 Players Of 2024: Ace (10)
DLTV.org is listing out the top ten players of 2024 according to our statistics and judgement. The first player to appear on the list is none other than Gaimin Gladiators’ offlaner, Ace.
Team Accolades
We consider team results as an important factor, and though the Gladiators have significantly slowed down past The International 2024, we must remember they won some significant events in the year.
The Western European mix had a dismal start to the year, finishing 5th - 6th at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024, DreamLeague Season 22, and Elite League Season 1, and even faced a Group Stage exit at ESL One Birmingham 2024.
However, the team came back to form in the middle of the season, showing great signs by placing second at DreamLeague Season 23 and taking home the 1win Series Dota 2 Summer tournament. Though the squad came into Riyadh Masters 2024 with no expectations, Gaimin Gladiators ended up winning the entire team, sweeping Team Liquid 3 - 0 in the Grand Final to win the highest prize of the year, and Ace was named the MVP of the entire tournament.
The Gladiators continued their momentum coming into The International 2024, but ran out of gas in the Grand Final against their rivals Team Liquid, this time receiving the sweep on their end.
Personal Stats
Throughout 2024, Ace played 227 maps on 34 unique heroes, boasting a respectable 54% win rate. The Dane also raked in $483,000 in prize money, with the bag from Riyadh Masters contributing the most.
