Recently, The Second Inven Global Global Awards (IGA) was held by The Korean media Inven Global, where in-modern editors and a number of other experienced journalists and analysts voted for the 2021 Best of the Year – Best Team, Player, Potential Player and Arena Story.
This time, the voting is this year's best player of the year (not only the world competition), the following is the Korean media's voting results and evaluation of the best player of the year (ranking is not divided):
(Players to be awarded must not appear on the MSI or World Championship stage before 2021, or have participated in bubbling competitions or other major events before 2021)
Canyon：
Canyon has done well for most of the year. As DK sought a change, Canyon also played as a Chinese singles player for a while. Domestically, Canyon has won the LCK Championship twice, he was twice named to the Best Team (for a time in the spring, the second team in the Summer Tournament) and won the Spring Regular Season MVP. He reached the international final twice. Although he has been runners-up twice, no one would argue that he is not the strongest player in the world, or even the strongest player in history.
Scout：
The single title of the world championship is always worth paying attention to. For five years of the Lunar New Year, Scout has been EDG's top priority. This year, he's not as explosive as he used to be, but he knows his place very well because he's become an all-around player. He always stood up when the team needed him.
Scout achieved excellent results this year, winning the Summer Championship and the World Championship Car Championship. Scout has also won the favor of the FMVP. What better qualifies to be a Player of the Year than being an FMVP?
ShowMaker：
Since the 2020 Summer Race, ShowMaker has been at the top of LCK. After winning the LCK title twice, the mid-single position in the all-team team has always been him. In the LCK Summer Finals, ShowMaker won the final MVP for his outstanding performance against Faker. His contribution to the team is enormous, as he can even take on the role of ADC when the team needs him.
ShowMaker's only two defeats this year were in the MSI finals and world finals, but those defeats were not his fault. ShowMaker hasn't won an international title this year, but when he wins, he always does his best.
