Peaxel GW 2026-10 Recap: Karate King Obliterates the Field
Shah Malarani didn’t just win Gameweek 2026-10. He annihilated it. With 276,954 points — a margin of 37,000 over second place — the karate specialist delivered one of the most commanding performances the Arena has seen this season. The leaderboard waits for no one.
👑 THE DOMINANT FORCE
Shah Malarani (@shahmalarani) — 276,954 points — Karate
This is what Fight Sports supremacy looks like. Malarani’s massive haul wasn’t just a win; it was a statement. The Iranian karateka has been building momentum throughout 2026, and GW10 was the culmination of that trajectory. For managers who had him rostered, congratulations — you just cashed in on the Athlete Economy at its finest. For those who didn’t, the Arena doesn’t lie. Study the tape.
🔥 THE RISING BLOC
#2 Matteo Faure (@matteofaure) — 239,549 pts — BMX. The French Olympic hopeful continues his tear through the rankings. Two gameweeks in a row above 200K. Elite consistency.
#3 Marky Math (@markymath) — 138,739 pts — Mountain Biking. MTB’s most entertaining athlete delivers again. Mid-table to top 3 is a trajectory managers should note.
#4 Victor Crouin (@victor_crouin) — 110,232 pts — Squash. The French squash ace keeps punching above his weight class. Olympic Sports depth on display.
#5 Nate Loy (@nate_loy) — 101,842 pts — BMX. Another BMX rider in the top 5. The sport is absolutely dominating the points economy right now.
#6 Alister Yoong (@alisteryoong) — 100,290 pts — Car Racing. Motor Sports’ lone representative in the top 10. Quietly consistent.
#7 The Major BMX (@TheMajorBMX) — 96,171 pts — BMX. Three BMX athletes in the top 7. The pattern is undeniable.
#8 Helena Kazmierczak (@Helena_Kazmierczak) — 95,444 pts — Surfskating. The Polish surfskater brings style points and Arena points in equal measure.
#9 Nathan Texier (@nathan_txr) — 83,935 pts — Kiteboarding. Water Sports finally breaks into the top 10. Wind was in his favor.
#10 Termoosaa (@termoosaa) — 79,134 pts — Mountain Biking. MTB’s depth continues to impress.
🏅 THE SOLID MID-TABLE
BMX & MTB dominance continues: Megan Williams (#11, 76,897), Blahavo (#12, 76,073), and Xavier Gilbee (#15, 66,517) keep the two-wheeled sports firmly in control of the mid-table.
Olympic Sports surge: Trent Does Gymnastics (#13, 75,912) on trampoline and Ruben Padilla (#19, 59,967) give the category serious depth beyond Faure and Crouin.
Water Sports cluster: Roni Balbul (#14, 71,460) joins Nathan Texier in proving kiteboarding is the sport to watch.
Winter Sports appears: Tao Kreibich (#16, 64,276) — Skiing. A rare winter sighting in March. Managers, take note of off-season performers.
Team Sports represented: Edu Martins (#17, 62,908) — Footvolley. Brazil’s beach game makes its mark.
⚡ GAMEWEEK TALKING POINTS
1. BMX is the meta. Six athletes in the top 20. If you’re not running BMX cards, you’re leaving points on the table. Matteo Faure, Nate Loy, The Major, Megan Williams, Xavier Gilbee — the sport is stacked.
2. Fight Sports: feast or famine. Malarani scored 276K. Meanwhile, multiple fighters posted negatives. High variance, high reward — classic Fight Sports economics.
3. The 100K club. Six athletes broke 100,000 points this week. That’s elite scoring depth. The Arena is getting more competitive.
4. Motor Sports struggles. Only Alister Yoong cracked the top 10. Seven Motor Sports athletes finished in the red. Rough week on the track.
📉 THE RED ZONE
The Arena punishes inactivity. Snizhana Babaieva (Arm Wrestling) and Niko18m (BMX) posted zeros. Thibault Running hit rock bottom at -275 points — the week’s biggest collapse.
Motor Sports hemorrhaged value: Dario Cabanelas (-121), Owen Nguyen Tangavelou (-88), Marco Filisetti (-44), and Payton Reimers (-22) all went negative.
Manager advice: Check competition schedules before locking rosters. A card with no events is a card earning nothing. This is the Athlete Economy — idle assets depreciate.
