SC2 Statistics - Win rate by race - July 2011

[celerisk]

Taken from tournaments.



International (i.e. anything, except Korea):


Seems like a good year for Zerg
Though that last month... well...



Korea only (i.e. Korea only):


OK, so, ZvT is clearly broken here
And what to make of that ZvP?

Also somewhat confirms the last MLG, where the top 5 were all Korean and Terran.

they are so beautiful. it looks like art.

 

[Vestras]

Looks like rollercoasters.

 

[Accname]

for me it looks like it isnt showing *much*.
terran really is positioned much higher in average then any other race, but on the other hand, terran units are very vulnerable as well.

besides this everything is going up and down on a regular basis so i dont know if you can really tell much about the balancing there.

 

[s3rius]

This chart seems to take every league into consideration.
I'm pretty sure bronze-plat leagues drag down Zerg quite a bit.

Aye, I remember him saying that when I beat him in the last THT finals. Very convenient to blame everything on imba.

The win rates prove it's true, especially among Koreans.

Idra does it the same way and he is a pro isnt he?

xD

And yea, we're all Korean pros.

PS: I'm NOT saying that the game is perfectly balanced. I'm just saying that QQ'ing and "terran op" is no help. And seeing your comment I can't help but think that you're one of the complaining sort instead of one who actually tries beat it.

Do these win rates mean anything, given that the game automatically pairs you with players with whom you'll win against ~50% of the time? So if (ahem) T was imbalanced in their favour, a less skilled T player would be paired against a more skilled Z player and the win rates would still be around 50%, regardless of how strong the races are.

It'd be interesting to see what the average MMR is for each race, or what % of each division play each race, and the sort.

 

[s3rius]

The celerisk said it's taken from tournaments in the opening post, not from battle.net. So no match making system here.
Although it doesn't say from which tournaments.

Starcraft II is 20-30% skill. 70% is the plan and how good your units are. Lucky for terran, all they need to do is get tanks and MMM

Well, who else would you blame? Your mom for not passing on gosu genes?


> Although it doesn't say from which tournaments

With, for example, 2400+ games for July, tournaments only, it's safe to assume it's from "all they could possibly find".
Perhaps they completely missed the unheard of Backwater Gulch Hometown Cup, but, well, it wouldn't have changed the overall result

Says the Protoss LOL

 

[Accname]

70% is whether the protoss manages to feedback the ghosts and storm the shit out of the terran or the ghosts emp the high templars + archons + collosi + sentries.

lol just get fudging 3 or 4 ghosts, there's no way the hts can feedback all of them before they dish out emp, plus you need loads of gas to do that, while you can just mmm the protoss' expansion like there's no tomorrow.

>>says the protoss
pffff I played 1200 games as human in wc3 and 1200 games in sc2, ik when something is op.

 

[Accname]

i have seen enough pro games commentary where it came down to whether feedback/storm or emp/snipe were faster.
most of them were won by the protoss but thats still only a matter of microing your units abilities.
