Should honor be renamed?

For every time someone gets a most honorable award for actually being honorable, there's ten other times where someone gets it just for carrying or having the most kills. Why call it honor if it doesn't represent what it's actually supposed to mean?

You could probably mitigate this effect by having a choice on the honor screen that says, "MVP!"

"This player played really well this match"

and you can have it as a stat on your profile, wins MVP X % of games

most people would get less real honor, but the honors would be more meaningful.

Honor doesn't really need to be renamed just because it seems like more people honor carries rather than honorable players. The whole point of the Honor Ceremony in the post-game is to allow players to vote on who they felt had the most positive impact on their game, and if that means the carry...Well, so be it, that person can honor the carry.

Especially since the Honors (GG <3 especially) are very rough, general categories.

And besides, that's just in regards to the Honor Ceremony. The rest of the system is holistically geared towards recognizing sportsmanlike behavior.
