Why xNova ranks #140 in Esports
xNova ranks 140th among Esports athletes on GOAT Rank and 3660th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 88, Longevity 80, Honours 84, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Esports reference universe of 326 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2015–present with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2019, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes ti finals 2, major titles 2, ti appearances 5, premier tournament wins 5.
Immediately ahead sits w33 on 82.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Deft on 82.6. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
