First of all,I would like to thank all these guys who voted me as the most improved player of 2017.I put a lot of effort in studying games and thus,I really think I am in a better level than 1 year ago.Now le'ts continue to the awards' part.

Performance Awards

Best Overall Player : Master of the Dead (Excellent ratings at all kinds of ladders,communicative and very intelligent)

Best 1v1 Player : Buns157 (I do not have to say much about him,he has destroyed everyone in 1v1 games at least 1 time)

Best 2v2/3v3 Team : I've seen lots of great teams lately but I'll go with le Marseillais and sebb
for their amazing winning streak at 2v2 ladder and Timinator • apex, Sephiroth, and Master of the Dead for 3v3 team

Most Underrated Player: Mike |GG| (He performed great at all of his games,had a very nice performance at last seasonal and promoted to top 6 of WWCL.He is playing great at all kinds of games but it seems that noone has said he deserves to be one of top players

Most Self-Confident Player:I do not know how you want us to describe most self-confident player.I'll go with Kezzo as others said him :P

Most Improved Player: Tough one.I think that Pardon99 has improved slightly more than others this year

Thanks for your time reading this!

^ he was already 1800ish last year though. You guys saying semice improved so much is just because you don't know he was already good before lol

Really? Semice was decent at beginning of 2016 compared to strat level of roleplaying clans ( https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=16495 ) but it took him time to even get to rating of 1500 on 1v1 ladder. His ego was always bigger than his skill so it was really interesting to watch the latter grow. We were clanmates at the time so I should know. :P

Some more deserving templates from 2016:
India 3v3: https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12644605
Belarus 1v1: http://warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12338133

It's not an older template? I think it was on IPL already.

^ he was already 1800ish last year though. You guys saying semice improved so much is just because you don't know he was already good before lol

@kaerox 1800? At the start of 2016, he was rated 1460, at the end 2208. Even 1800 to 2208 is amazing. I played him quite a bit throughout 2016. Here's his ladder profile https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=8870

He went from this: https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=10338451

Not a nomination yet, but 902 is terrific. Want to reaffirm Kezzo's nominations.

Great guy, great sportsmanship, and he has improved notably from the days that we used to play Fields of Feldmere together. He is a great teamplayer, leader, and innovator in strategy.

If he doesn't win anything this time round, but he continues to do his thing, I can see him winning something next year.

Edited 2/18/2017 23:57:55

yeah i agree quicksilver! 902 probably got the best sportmanship and best leadership on wl! Its just a shame he is not that well known among the strat community yet, but it wont take long untill he is rated among the best wl active wl players! In my book he is right behing Mod, buns, motd in 1v1, in leadership he is ahead of all of them, even if i havent played many teamgames with them and i know they have proved alot more than him, but 90 will prove it now when he have finally started to play more ladders and clan league and shit! :D

Edited 2/21/2017 22:12:17

Panagiotis, you are voted for 2016, not 2017. But, maybe you can continue in this year?

i nominate natto for most self confident player even though he sucks

Just a reminder to all those who haven't submitted nominations yet but are planning to: the deadline for nominations is in two days. Please make sure your submissions are before February 26th, 12:00 AM PST, otherwise they will not be counted.
