19-year-old Spirit star Danil "donk" Kryshkovets claimed the HLTV × 1xBET MVP at BLAST Open Porto 2026 — his second consecutive BLAST Open Porto MVP.
Tournament stats
- Event rating (Rating 3.0): 1.40
- KPRW (Kills per Round Won): 1.24
- Group stage rating: 1.61 (standout peak)
Historic milestone
This is donk's 10th Big Event MVP, overtaking NiKo for the all-time record. He now holds 13 total MVPs across all tournaments — an unmatched active-player total.
Voting context
donk edged out teammate Dmitry "sh1ro" Sokolov, whose strong finals performances on Ancient and Nuke drove significant community debate. sh1ro's 1.36 grand-final rating was higher on the specific series, but donk's solid Map 1 peak against Falcons plus his decisive Ancient performance secured the award, with his overall tournament average substantially outpacing the rest.
