IEM Dallas 2023 has concluded, and in the final, ENCE secured a clean victory. But who demonstrated their individual performance the best throughout the championship? To help you understand this question, we have compiled a list of the top 5 players of the tournament.

stavn (Rating - 6.7)

Despite Heroic facing difficulties in the semifinals against an underdog - on the major, it was GamerLegion, and at IEM Dallas 2023, it was MOUZ - Martin "stavn" Lund performed the best in the team. His trade rating was one of the best in the championship, the same goes for AK-47 kills.

NiKo (Rating - 6.9)

Nikola "NiKo" Kovač rarely has individual underwhelming events, and IEM Dallas 2023 was no exception. However, in this tournament, the team's synergy let him down, which FaZe took advantage of in the quarterfinals. Against Heroic in the group stage, G2 looked disorganized.

device (Rating - 7.5)

Nicolai "device" Reedtz looked like a version of himself from 2019 when Astralis won one tournament after another. The Dane was unmatched not only in terms of rating but also in clutch situations. He won two 1v3 situations, three 1v2, and four 1v1. Unfortunately, his journey in the tournament ended in the quarterfinals, where Astralis narrowly lost to MOUZ.

frozen (Rating - 6.6)

David "frozen" Čerňanský didn't have to carry his team as heavily as device did. Thanks to this, MOUZ reached the final of IEM Dallas 2023, securing the second-place finish. However, we should not underestimate frozen's contribution to the achieved result, as he excelled in multi-kills. He achieved 1 ace, 1 quad kill, 13 triple kills, and 51 double kills.

MVP - SunPayus (Rating - 6.9)

Despite ENCE's previous failures in grand finals, Alvaro "SunPayus" Garcia proved that signing him in August of last year was not in vain. He also became the first Spaniard since 2016 to bring a major tournament title to his country. Prior to him, only mixwell achieved similar success. As the main sniper in his team, it's no surprise that his AWP kill frequency topped the charts in this category, sharing the top spot with dev1ce and oSee.

IEM Dallas 2023 took place from May 29th to June 4th in the USA. The tournament featured 16 teams competing for a prize pool of $250,000. Detailed event statistics and a more comprehensive top players list are available in a separate section.
