Cloud9 captain Tarik "tarik" Celik is the recipient of the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award of ELEAGUE Major Boston by HLTV.org & Betway.

The 21-year-old edged out teammates William "⁠RUSH⁠" Wierzba and Timothy "⁠autimatic⁠" Ta for the honour after a great showing in the final, in which he was Cloud9's top performer in their map wins, especially on Inferno, where he had a 1.43 Rating (+13KDD).

Tarik "⁠tarik⁠" Celik, who had the highest tournament rating of his team (1.22), had also acquitted himself really well against both G2 (1.29) and SK (1.25), while in the Swiss stage he had only had one below-average rating.
