The dynamic of the team rankings brings several changes to the top 5 as Monday morning crowns new kings.

Natus Vincere are once again on the top. One week before the end of the month, the yellow jackets are leading the Hearthstone team rankings 20 points ahead of their European rivals G2.

Although their rise to the top is largely due to Sebastian “Xixo” Bentert’s streak of tournament wins, which recently brought him his fifth invitational victory in a row, consistency remains the defining factor for Natus Vincere. Each of their three players is in the top 8 of their region and top 25 in the world, with Xixo leading the charge with his #2 position. At publication time, Frederik “Hoej” Nielsen is #6 in EU and #10 worldwide, and Sebastian “Ostkaka” Engwall trails behind with #8 in EU and #21 worldwide position.

Although G2 proudly hosts the highest peaking player in GosuRankings history in Thijs “ThijsNL” Molendijk and world’s top 6 Adrian “Lifecoach” Koy, the discrepancy within their ranks puts them behind Na'Vi at present time. Although he’s gradually returning to his 2014 form, Dima “Rdu” Radu is still outside the top 15 of Europe and towards the bottom of the world top 50. Preferring the role of caster and analyst nowadays, the tournament appearances of Jakub “Lothar” Szygulski have also been scarce and he’s just outside the top 100.

G2 and Na'Vi are not only in close competition at the top of the rankings, but they also have a nice lead ahead of the other top teams of Hearthstone. Three other rosters are racing within the 1,100 – 1,110 range and this week it’s Team Archon that woke up as #3. The top three finish of Jon “Orange” Westberg at StarLadder finals and top four of Paul “Zalae” Nemeth at HS Arena put Amaz' team just two points above Cloud9, who drop down to fourth place. In fifth we have Luminosity Gaming, largely carried by the talent of StarLadder champion Stanislav Cifka.
