if we are talking specifically about development, I would nominate 3 candidates
asm sure - WT and no comments
StickyFingaz - MiGoga and streams bring Heroes to a new level and greatly contribute to the development of the Hero movement
Kash - consistent work with newcomers and very challenging organization of tournaments involving them
I agree 100% with everyone listed.
I would also add Pit - a person who did a huge amount of technical work for HeroesWorld in 2010. It may not be as noticeable, but its importance, and the steadfastness with which he took on and continues to perform the functions of the coordinator of the "Troika Online", in my opinion, is immense.
And as for a greater patriot of the resource, I personally do not know anyone.
