Since BGMI launched in 2021 as India’s version of PUBG Mobile, the competitive scene and content creation community have changed a lot. In the beginning, most kill records came from official esports tournaments, where players like Jonathan and Scout stood out with their skill under pressure. After the game was banned in 2022 and returned in May 2023 with better anti-cheat and matchmaking, the meta shifted. Content creators then started setting huge kill records in classic matches, often getting more than 50 eliminations because of tougher lobbies and fewer bots.
These changes show how the game has updated to include more real players, how creators earn money by playing aggressively, and how competition between them has increased. As of November 20, 2025, esports records and classic mode records remain very different. This article lists India’s top BGMI kill records with proof from videos, esports websites, and Krafton’s official data.

Jonathan Sets the Benchmark (2020–2022)
The roots of BGMI's kill record legacy extend to the PUBG Mobile era, where official tournaments provided the primary arena for verifiable high-level performances.
Jonathan's Legendary 16 Kills in Official Tournament
Jonathan Jude Amaral, competing for TSM Entity (subsequently GodLike Esports), delivered one of the most enduring individual feats in Indian mobile battle royale esports. In the PUBG Mobile India Series (PMIS) 2020 semifinals on Erangel, Jonathan achieved 16 eliminations in a single official match—a record that highlighted exceptional close-quarters combat and decision-making against elite opposition. This performance, broadcast officially and archived on Liquipedia, remains unsurpassed in comparable high-stakes single-match tournament scenarios, despite occasional approaches of 18–20 kills by players such as RGExViPERR in recent BMPS and BGIS events.
Scout's Kill Leaderboard Dominance in Early BGMI Tourneys
Tanmay "Scout" Singh, a pivotal figure in teams like Fnatic and TeamXSpark, established sustained dominance in early BGMI tournaments including BMPS Season 1 and BGIS 2021–22. Scout frequently led kill leaderboards, accumulating over 100 finishes across multi-match stages, often alongside peers like Goblin of Team Soul. His archetype—combining accurate sprays, proactive engagements, and clutch execution—defined professional assaulting during this period.
Why Tournament Kills Were "Real" Records Back Then
Early BGMI classic matches frequently incorporated bots and inconsistent matchmaking, diminishing the prestige of public high-kill claims. Official esports thus represented the gold standard, rewarding strategic depth and reliability over unchecked aggression.
Current Record Holders (November 2025)
Solo Classic Mode: Casetoo (53 Kills)
Aditya "Casetoo" Sharma's September 2023 Erangel performance endures as the pinnacle, with no verified surpass since.
Squad Classic Mode: LoLzZz Gaming-led Squads (94+ Kills)
Collaborative high-density matches continue to yield 90+ elimination games routinely among top creators.
Official Esports Single Match: Approximately 18–20 Kills
Professional lobbies prioritise placement, maintaining lower per-match ceilings; Jonathan's historical 16 remains contextually iconic.
Tournament Cumulative Kills: Jonathan / Goblin (200+ in Major Events)
Jonathan recorded 211 LAN finals kills across 2025 tournaments including BGMS and BMPS.
Prospects for Reclamation by Jonathan or Scout
Jonathan Amaral continues as a dominant force with GodLike Esports, consistently leading 2025 tournament kill charts. His occasional classic collaborations indicate latent potential for 60+ solo attempts. Scout, following his September 2025 competitive retirement, focuses on streaming yet retains elite mechanics. The "kill king" title has diversified: Jonathan and Scout embody professional legitimacy, while Casetoo and LoLzZz dominate absolute volume.
