How Indian Players Performed at PMWC 2026

Who stood out for India at PMWC 2026, and how did the players perform between groups and the finals? Datagrounds lists Spower as India's finals elimination leader with 30, followed by WizzGOD on 23.

I'd look beyond GodLike's 13th-place finish and Orangutan's 15th to judge those performances. Spower supplied nearly half his team's finals eliminations, while WizzGOD's contribution grew sharply. Both teams' eliminations per match fell after the groups.

India at PMWC 2026

The official EWC standings place GodLike 13th and Orangutan 15th. Both reached the Grand Finals directly, according to Sports Digest's account of their qualification.

The publisher's finals report dates that stage to August 14 to 16 in Paris. It had 16 teams playing 18 matches.

Datagrounds, The Dew Lab's tournament database, provides the player figures below. Its separate overall player tables list all 18 finals appearances for every Indian player.

That matters because its match-by-match team results cover only 17 finals maps. These player comparisons use the overall player tables throughout, without reconstructing team points from the incomplete map record.

Indian Player Stats

Spower led the Indian players in both finals eliminations and damage, according to Datagrounds. Every player below played 18 finals matches, so the totals share the same opportunity count.

Player names follow the event table, including AK. Tied elimination totals remain ties; the display order doesn't establish a tiebreak.

Spower finished tied 3rd on eliminations across the whole finals field, 5 behind Qzz's 35. The global PMWC player stats comparison puts that result beside the other leaders.

Within Orangutan, AK dealt 910 more damage than WizzGOD despite finishing 8 eliminations behind him. I'd keep both figures in view when comparing their output.

Damage, Knocks and Assists

Damage and assists help explain contributions that an elimination list can hide. A knock downs an opponent who can still be revived, so knocks and eliminations count different outcomes.

Datagrounds lists these supporting figures for the same 18-match final:

AK and Attanki jointly led Orangutan's assists with 13 each. ADMINO led GodLike's with 12. Those contributions belong beside their elimination counts, though neither metric establishes who called a fight or protected a rotation.

Spower's 9 grenade eliminations were the highest finals total in Datagrounds. They accounted for 30% of his 30 eliminations, with the next-highest player total at 8.

Sports Digest's tournament report also says Spower received the Grenade Master award. I'd distinguish that award from the broader question of how consistently GodLike produced eliminations as a quartet.

Group Stage vs Grand Finals

Every Indian player had 12 group matches and 18 finals matches in Datagrounds. Per-match rates make the comparison fairer than raw totals, although the opposing field changed between stages.

For example, Spower's finals rate is 30 divided by 18, or 1.67 eliminations per match. His group rate was 23 divided by 12, or 1.92.

WizzGOD was the only player in these 8 whose elimination rate rose. His damage per match barely changed, moving from 213.5 in groups to 207.8 in the finals.

That combination is why I'd avoid equating his elimination jump with a similar rise in damage. The credited eliminations changed much more sharply than his damage output.

ADMINO's group elimination lead and Saumay's team-high 5,136 group damage also matter. GodLike entered the final with substantial output from players beyond Spower.

GodLike and Orangutan's Player Contributions

Adding the 4 players within each overall stage table reveals how the teams' contributions changed. The sums agree with Datagrounds' separate overall team aggregates for eliminations and damage.

These are descriptive stage changes. The totals don't establish whether a rotation, an opening duel or a late fight caused the decline.

GodLike Esports

Spower's share of GodLike's eliminations grew from 31.5% in groups to 45.5% in the final. The finals share comes from 30 divided by the quartet's 66 eliminations.

The change was concentrated across the rest of the quartet:

• Group Stage: the other 3 players combined for 50 eliminations in 12 matches, or 4.17 per match.
• Grand Finals: they combined for 36 in 18 matches, or 2.00 per match.
• Rate change: their combined elimination rate fell 52.0%.

I'd describe GodLike's final as more dependent on Spower for eliminations. Spower's own rate fell, but the combined drop around him was much larger. That leaves more pressure on a single player's output.

The broader GodLike season analysis covers the team's results around this event. The player split here gives a more specific question for its next international final: can more of the quartet sustain its group-stage rate?

Orangutan

WizzGOD's share rose from 8.0% of Orangutan's group eliminations to 38.3% of its finals eliminations. The other 3 players combined for 46 in the groups and 37 in the final.

Their combined rate fell from 3.83 to 2.06 eliminations per match. WizzGOD's improvement limited the team's overall decline to 20.0%, even as the rest of the quartet's combined rate fell 46.4%.

I'd give that improvement credit without assuming the whole team improved with him. Orangutan's total rose from 50 to 60 eliminations, but it had 6 more matches to produce them.

The Orangutan season review provides the surrounding team results. At player level, a repeat of WizzGOD's finals rate alongside stronger output elsewhere would be the combination I'd watch for.

What I'd Watch Next

I'd start with fights involving AK and WizzGOD when reviewing Orangutan, because their damage and elimination totals leave different impressions. The replay can show what happened between the first damage and the final elimination.

For GodLike, I'd follow the quartet's distribution in its next comparable international final. A smaller share for Spower would be encouraging if it came from stronger output around him while his own rate held up.
