A New Name Cracks the Top 5 — And a New #1

Two firsts in Week 3. Rogue Warhead overtakes Venom Scythe for the #1 individual combat score — the first time since the season began that Venom Scythe hasn't held the top spot outright.

The more interesting story might be at #3: Whale Saber cracks the top 5 for the first time this season, and does it in an unusual way. Most of the league's top scorers are racking up kills — Whale Saber's line reads 7 kills, but 5 assists, one of the more balanced playmaker profiles near the top of the board. Worth watching whether that ratio holds as the season goes on.

In the standings, Green rockets to 5-1 — the best record in the league — after wins over Orange and Blue. Red remains mired at the bottom, now 1-5, their lone win still the shutout of Black back in Week 2.

Black, for what it's worth, has started to stabilize — a 4-2 week pulls them back to 4-2 overall after last week's collapse. Not a full recovery, but a sign the freefall isn't continuing unchecked.
