i feel like some of these were made to generate... let's say 'heated discussion'. international terran of the year "not awarded" being the prime example. yes, none of them did amazingly, but it's really disrespectful to say nobody deserved this award like there aren't any that tried. it's also not difficult to give it to Happy and justify it, so that's not an argument either. whatever. giving Naniwa most entertaining player is also just asking for a flamewar. then give everything you can nominate him for to Taeja and then act like you're surprised when people say "lol Liquid bias".

i enjoyed most of the list though and clearly a lot of work went into this. good job overall.

I like awards and I like to read, so that's cool. But I'm not feeling Taeja, hugger and "conical" damage.
And Happy is best.

His opinions are shared by many, as his post on reddit proves with people gifting him reddit gold for it, while being upvoted to the top, and he does call tree out on the more disingenuous stuff, which is great.

As good as Innovation was, he was hardly dominant for the entire year (Mainly for S1), and he had a lot of his tournament runs ended by TaeJa himself.

I feel like Maru at least deserved a mention for player of the year though. he's not even listed in the nominees even though he won OSL and got top 4 at WCS KR S3, S3 finals, and Blizzcon. he was the only terran player to win a series against a toss at Blizzcon and in 2 of the tournaments he got knocked out by the champion.

He played against MC and almost got knocked out by DuckDeok, top 4 when he played against them isn't very impressive.

Nice read! I'm not sure if TaeJa is the best of the best, but it is such small things who keep the players apart so it doesn't matter

Nice read ! Dont agree with the choice of Taeja as player of the year and him as best terran is disputable but I also understand why he won it.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

With broken blink all ins, only 1 game was legit and he pretty much meta'd Innovation as Innovation wouldn't have expected him to play ultra greedy after all inning every other game.
