Dream Team of the IEM Katowice 2023 Group Stage: HooXi, CadiaN, Jks, and others

The group stage of IEM Katowice has ended, and six teams have entered the event's playoffs. However, who excelled in individual performance? And what kind of team could be composed of these players? You will find out in this article.

Captain: Rasmus HooXi Nielsen

Who, if not the captain of a team that has yet to lose a map, can become the best captain of the group stage? Moreover, at IEM Katowice HooXi also shows an excellent individual game. Yes, this is still far from the stars' level, but on some maps, the Dane could significantly support his shooters.

The match with NAVI spoiled HooXi's statistics, so his average rating is only 5.7. But this still doesn't change the fact that HooXi's ideas started to work, and G2 can't be stopped, which makes the Dane the best captain.

Clutch master: Justin jks Savage

The best clutcher became a player from whom few expected a good performance, but in the group stage of IEM Katowice 2023, Hallzerk showed his best game. This is reflected not only in his overall rating but also in the number of clutches.

In total, the Norwegian won 14 clutches for the group stage of IEM Katowice. However, the player occupies the sniper position, so jks, with 4 1-in-1 clutches and one 2-in-1, got into the "dream team." The player also performed well at the tournament.

Entry-fragger: Jakob jabbi Nygaard

This time, the best entry fragger wasn't Nikola NiKo Kovac or Marek YEKINDAR Galinskys. Instead, Jabbi from Heroic distinguished himself by the number of first kills in the group stage of IEM Katowice. Statistically, Florian syrsoN Riche scored more. However, BIG managed to win only one map, so he isn't a competitor of the Dane.

Heroic, on the other hand, became their group's champions, which is also thanks to jabbi. On average, a player made 0.165 kills per round.

Support: Kasper cadiaN Möller

Captain of Heroic not only plays well with AWP but also works well with grenades. During the average round, he blinded more than two players, and they were blinded for 3 seconds. The Dane also inflicted lots of damage with HE and Molotov, showing near-peak performance.

CadiaN is the best support, not for the first time, indicating that the Dane is a truly versatile player.

Sniper: Djami Jame Ali

It is possible to say that Jame isn't worthy of the title of the best sniper of IEM Katowice 2023 because Outsiders look extremely bad in the background of other teams. However, the team could still get to the playoffs, and Jame made a huge amount of frags with AWP.

On average, a player made 0.429 shots per round with a sniper rifle. However, it will be complex with Jame's performance to help the team in the next stage.

On February 10, IEM Katowice 2023 will continue, and 4 out of 5 players will fight for the main trophy at the Spodek Arena. All information about the event is available on its page.
