Best Players
Kairat forward Daulet Orynbasar finished as the highest-scoring player in Fantasy QJ League 2026 with 133 points.
The flagship competition's top scorer, who netted 20 goals to claim the title for the second consecutive season, was also the most popular pick among fantasy managers. Priced at 11 Freedom-Coins, he was selected by 43% of participants.
Shakhter midfielder Rasul Akimov finished close behind with 129 points. His 13 league goals were the highest tally of any midfielder in the competition.
Top fantasy performers by position:
Goalkeeper: Daniil Nurzhanov (Tobyl), 89 points;
Defender: Ruslan Dzhetenov (Tobyl), 124 points;
Midfielder: Rasul Akimov (Shakhter), 129 points;
Forward: Daulet Orynbasar (Kairat), 133 points.
Ruslan Dzhetenov deserves special recognition. Priced at just 5.5 Freedom-Coins, the Tobyl captain outscored every other defender, including the more expensive Kairat duo of Marlen Amrenov (121 points) and Alikhan Abdi (116 points). Dzhetenov played every minute of the season – all 1,980 of them – and scored five goals.
His teammate Daniil Nurzhanov, valued at 5 Freedom-Coins, featured in all 22 matches and made 105 saves, more than any other goalkeeper in the League.
One of the season's biggest surprises was Ayan Amanzhulov. The Aktobe midfielder earned 118 points, matching teammate Ibrahim Bauyrzhanov, despite being selected by just 9.9% of fantasy managers. Amanzhulov finished as the flagship competition's leading assist provider, recording nine goals and ten assists.
Season Winners
Plescavica_Team was crowned Fantasy QJ League champion for the second consecutive season, finishing with 1,553 points. The defending champion surpassed the 100-point mark in three separate Matchweeks and claimed more weekly victories than any other participant.
However, the title race went down to the wire. Heading into the final weekend, Plescavica_Team held a 32-point lead over olegforwards. But the challenger produced the best squad of Matchweek 22, scoring 87 points and cutting the final gap to just five. V26 completed the podium with 1,531 points, repeating last year's third-place finish.
