It’s the mooooost, wonderful time, of the year.

For those of us who like to tweet angrily at HLTV about their reasoning for the top 20, anyway. Especially for those of us who haven’t read said reasoning.

The top 20 comes to a close this weekend - this Saturday, in fact, and you can watch the ceremony live, if you so choose. But we’ve already been dripfed some apparently controversial choices so far.

People appear to be upset that s1mple is #7 despite missing ‘half of the year’ (he went on a break around October), frozen was #12 when he apparently should have been higher and that cadiaN was on it at all.

What most people are missing, is that none of it really matters.

Whether or not sh1ro should have been #8 or #9 makes no difference - he’s still in the top 20. frozen might be disappointed with ‘only’ being number #12, but if he was in the top 10, would he really care?

It’s all a bit of fun at the end of the day, but some x.com users seem genuinely upset. Well, obviously, but it’s a bit silly. There’s genuine vitriol and anger out there, and it’s all a bit baffling.

If we’re being truly honest, there’s plenty of times we’re envious of HLTV. They make more money than we do (>0), have more clout and throw much cooler award shows.

All that said, we don’t envy them for this week.

It’s only going to get worse when they announce XANTARES as #1.
