TotalBiscuit is doing a great thing for the community, but his top hat does not even come close to the amount of mentions and 'importance' that special tactics had for the community. It'd be really silly if it'd win.
Well you don't need to see it as a thing on its own but TB's tophat basically symbolizes him.
Although I'm going to vote for Trumpets, Poopfeast420 will most likely take it. Also, the fact that Artosis pylon lost so early probably means that anythign is possible.

Yes, but is the top hat ESPORTS?
Sure, it contributes a great deal to the man's character, and it definitely does him good to wear it.
But is it really more esports than something that was said in context of a professional match, was revered for months after it was said, and is still mentioned to this day by fans, usually in conversations related to the professional scene?
I really don't see mentions of TotalBiscuit's top hat that often in an esports related conversation, to be honest, this topic was one of the first times I saw it happen. I see people voting for their favourite personality, rather than what they consider to be the best 'meme' of esports. I guess that's another way to see the competition, but I was hoping for the latter to be the case. :/
Again, I'm not in it to be negative to TB, I just feel like it's not relevant compared to some of the more pure esports memes.
I don't understand what's so great about Poopfeast420. He's just a guy who posted questions for the Artosis GSL interviews. Very little ESPORTS compared to the MOTHAFUCKIN MURLOC SUIT. WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE YEAH!!

it is because he always asked really good questions...but his name was poopfeast420. He also symbolizes Cockhorse from SotG and Goatlust from ITG. then you have all of these aliases
A vote for Poopfeast420, is a vote for many things. One for John for assisting us in trolling Artosis. Another for Artosis having to read these names while trying to remain serious, and for the freshness of staying up way to late to watch the GSL grow.
EPT
Loving this thus far though!
