In second place sat Josh "JoshRT" Lee, who narrowly missed out on ousting Junior from the top spot by eight points. Austin "AAustiN" Urb claimed the third spot on the board, while Dominick "JazzPimp" Dimpfel made up for a lackluster start to the week by winning seven matches in a row to come out the better in a three-way tie between him, Jonah "JonahP" Pulice, and Kevin "4pack" Przypasniak.
The top five players for the month of January are:
| Rank | Player | Points | Prize |
| 1. | Malick "dangle" Abid |
1,250 | FPL |
| 2. | Paytyn "Junior" Johnson |
1,214 | FPL |
| 3. | Ramal "Rampage" Silva |
1,172 | |
| 4. | Chris "Slash" Petersen |
1,118 | |
| 5. | Marc-Andre "NiSMO" Tayar |
1,114 |

A stellar start to the month for Malick "dangle" Abid ensured that no one would reach him in first place, with the player participating in just two matches in the final week due to his extensive lead. Ramal "Rampage" Silva was the closest competitor to Junior for the second FPL slot, trailing by just over twenty points last week, but a combination of Junior's strong end to the month and Rampage playing in just six matches left the leaderboard looking much the same as before.
