    Because he got more contribution as indicated by his 3 stars. It's hard to give any more detailed explanation because the devs keep the exact workings of contribution calculation secret on purpose.

    He probably tanked a lot of damage and attacked multiple targets

    It's sorted by stars first now.

    My best guess would be his firebombs. They give damage bonuses to cannons, which would explain why he "contributed" more as all your teammates have at least one cannon. I've seen stuff like this happen all the time with fire/cannons and freeze/torpedoes. Just speculation, but hey :)

    I have observed that as well. Players with aoe freeze tend to have more stars

    Applying fire perhaps?!

    Perhaps the game also takes expected contribution into account -- Like for instance a playing running a legendary blast cannon is expected to outperform a guy with a rare cannon? ;)
