I've felt like this as well - it's not necessarily the most kills, but the person who shows the most skill. I think it would be kind of interesting to have 4 or 5 categories and that you need 3 or more votes for a particular category to be honored. That way you could have people honored for being "skilled", "unflappable", "shot caller", "Jokester/all-around-fun", etc.
They've said this is the first iteration, and I like where they're going by having a critical mass of votes to recognize someone, so I have to assume the next step is to allow people to vote for more than 1 category/have honorable opponent. I also like the idea of having a mini-award ceremony after the games though.
