Top 10 Fantasy Picks from BP League Winning Teams

The 2025 Call of Duty League season brought not only fierce competition on the main stage but also the first year of Breaking Point’s Season Keeper Fantasy League. Thousands of fans drafted rosters at the beginning of the year and held them throughout the season, hoping their picks would lead them to fantasy glory in the end. With the dust now settled and the CDL Season fantasy wrapped, it is time to reveal the top 10 most-drafted players on winning fantasy teams, and it’s no surprise that some of the CDL’s biggest names top the list!

These players weren’t just stars on the map; they were cornerstone picks for fantasy rosters that went the distance to win the Championship. Here’s a breakdown of the top 10 most drafted players on winning Season Keeper teams!

#1: Brandon "Dashy" Otell, OpTic Texas – On 30.0% of Winning Teams (1,145)

Dashy proved once again why he’s not only a favorite of the Greenwall but also a fantasy favorite. His elite slaying power, consistent performance across all modes, and standout objective work on OpTic Texas made him the most valuable pick in the Season Keeper format, appearing on 30% of winning rosters. While he wasn't projected to be the top fantasy player on many rosterboards going into the season, fantasy players won't make that mistake in 2026.

#2: David "RenKoR" Isern, Miami Heretics – On 27.3% of Winning Teams (1,042)

One of the breakout stars of the season, RenKoR turned heads in Challengers in previous years and made the leap to become a fantasy goldmine in his rookie season. His impact and cost-effective value made him a favorite sleeper pick that paid off big for savvy managers, as the Spaniard was on 1,042 fantasy winning teams this year.

#3: Anthony "Shotzzy" Cuevas-Castro, OpTic Texas – On 26.4% of Winning Teams (1,008)

One of the most popular players in the League, Shotzzy’s dynamic movement and playmaking ability kept him among the most impactful players in 2025. Whether racking up kills or contributing to objective work, he remained a high-value asset throughout the season. His high-level SND play made him a key player in winning those crucial categories.

#4: Travis "Neptune" McCloud, Vancouver Surge – On 24.6% of Winning Teams (941)

Neptune’s resurgence with the Vancouver Surge made him one of the most under-the-radar fantasy midseason pickups of the year. His aggressive playstyle and strong SMG numbers helped lift both his real-life squad and fantasy teams alike. Coming into the team after Stage I, savvy team managers were able to snag Neptune to bolster their SMG lineups early in the year.

#5: Paco "HyDra" Rusiewiez, LA Thieves – On 23.0% of Winning Teams (878)

HyDra continued to be a fantasy force for LA Thieves, delivering both high slaying and damage output performances in respawn modes. His versatility across the board made him a staple on nearly a quarter of winning rosters, as calculating managers selected him early and paired him with objective juggernauts.

#6: Thomas "Scrap" Ernst, LA Thieves – On 21.8% of Winning Teams (834)

Another LA Thieves player & MVP of the Regular Season, Scrap was one of the most reliable ARs in the game and a favorite among fantasy managers. His MVP-level performances in multiple Majors helped carry many teams through tight matchups, but individually, he was one of the most consistent players throughout the year. Being one of the first players drafted often, Scrap proved not to be a bust for Managers.

#7: Isaiah "Gwinn" Gwinn, Cloud9 New York – On 21.7% of Winning Teams (829)

Though the Carolina Royal Ravens didn’t finish strong, Gwinn’s individual fantasy output was elite. The lack of team success led Gwinn to sign with New York going into EWC, which makes him a sleeper pick for the Esports World Cup fantasy leagues. He was one of the best SMG performers for much of the season and a popular mid-to-late round steal that helped shape winning lineups.

#8: McArthur "Cellium" Jovel, Atlanta FaZe – On 21.7% of Winning Teams (827)

Cellium's consistency with Atlanta FaZe once again made him a must-have. Even in losses, his stat lines remained strong, giving fantasy players reliable production week after week. While his per-10-minute statistics weren't the strongest in the AR role, the consistency and efficiency made him one of the best picks to build your team around.

#9: Joseph "JoeDeceives" Romero, Toronto Ultra – On 21.0% of Winning Teams (801)

JoeDeceives flew under the radar early in the preseason but proved to be one of the more consistent SMGs on a rising team. Managers who took a gamble on him were rewarded with steady value and upside. He was one of the best objective-minded SMGs to pair with pure slayers, while he still contributed great slaying & damage numbers.

#10: Mason "Mercules" Ramsay, OpTic Texas – On 19.6% of Winning Teams (747)

Rounding out the list is Mercules, another breakout talent from the Challenger scene who translated his momentum into CDL success. The third OpTic Texas member to make the list, Mercules, was the best late-season acquisition that fantasy managers could have made. Managers who stayed ahead of the curve were rewarded for picking up Mercules before their League-mates could react.
