Total series from Ro8 in ASL history (counting Vants starleague ) Zerg vs Protoss 26-22 Take in Mind Soulkey kinda destroyed the stats Take in Mind there was a season were the maps were extremely bad for zerg and not many zergs made it to Ro8. Funny enough that season the only zvp win is a third place match between Hero vs Mini haha.. I guess those stats scream imbalanced. | ||

In 2025, I think 99% of Terran players have TvZ better than TvP; 99% of Zerg players have ZvP better than ZvT; 99% of Protoss players have PvT better than PvZ at all level. In 2050, if StarCraft will be still alive, I guess that 99% of Terran players have TvZ better than TvP; 99% of Zerg players have ZvP better than ZvT; 99% of Protoss players have PvT better than PvZ at all level. | ||

Soma is best ZvP. Soulkey is AWOL. In ASL just last month Bisu lost in last game to unfortunate misclick to ling all in. Snow lost with uninspiring performance. Just few days ago Bisu won easily vs Soma in sponsored BO7. To me at top level right now ZvP is balanced good enough. Whatever the word "balance" means to you. I also keep track of the undocumented sponsor sets that the chinese organize but arent added to eloboard. Soma has played Bisu and SnOw multiple times since ASL ended. SnOw has about the same score. I can check later what the exact score and series count is. | ||

I think we just solved one of the big issues with your game understanding. Great news TMNT. Ah, same old eon. Incapable of responding to my argument. Pretend like you don't see anything. Keep repeating your rhetoric. It's literally written in my post that: Preparation may be different, but for the purpose of collecting data, all games are considered equal. Is there a game they can afford to lose lol? Plus, how does difference in preparation justify the removal of games in the group stage but not bracket stage? Does that mean Protoss win more or Zerg win more in group stage than bracket? Are games in group stage worthless? Last I check if you don't win in Ro16 you can't enter Ro8 lol. Can you elaborate? Then after that, verify your hypothesis with actual data (as if games in Ro16 skew the data in either way)? No you can't. You're just throwing shit into the conversation. | ||

That said your argument shifted with this new vision and now this means that Protoss cant beat zerg even in bo3. Honestly that is perfect for me. You either proved the imbalanced or you are just a clown. The reality is that zerg vs protoss from the Ro8 in ASL score is : Zerg vs Protoss 26-22 . is zerg leading ? for sure. But is zerg unbeatable like the number of champinships claim ? Nope. Is selective data manipulation by the protoss Cult. | ||

Funny enough that season the only zvp win is a third place match between Hero vs Mini haha.. I guess those stats scream imbalanced. Yes you manipulated the data. Nice. As said in my previous post, you have to do top 4 vs top 4, or top 5 vs top 5 only. But of course you ignored it. To explain to you like a 10 year old: let's say Dewalt were actually a Zerg player who were as good as Bonyth, so their head to head would be 50/50 (we don't care about balance here in this hypothetical situation) and the PvZ win rate would be 50%. Now throw you into the Zerg side but on the Protoss side there were still only Bonyth. Suddenly the PvZ win rate became 75% because Bonyth would beat you all the time but Dewalt only 50% of the time. You point to that and scream PvZ imba. But the data was skewed because you don't use the same population size for each race. When you work with such small sample sizes you have to control your groups carefully. There were 4 times a Protoss outside of top 5 entered the Ro8. There were 14 times for Zerg. So there's more chance for a top 5 P to beat an outside of top 5 Z than the reverse case. That's why when you do top 5 vs top 5 the score is 12-20 but when you include the whole population the score is 22-26. Compared to top 4 vs top 4, then top 3 vs top 3, don't you notice the more we increase the size the better it looks for Protoss? That's because as we increase the population, there are more lower tier Zergs for Protoss to beat to even out the stats. Actually when we talk about the global win rate of any matchup, we kinda accept this skewing of the data (mainly because it's difficult to refine it) but it's kinda more acceptable because global win rate = huge sample size. Not tiny like this case. | ||

WHy protoss can beat zerg every round but the FInal. Because the Zergs in other rounds are not always as strong as the Zergs in the finals lol. Refer to my post above for more explanation. I'll give you another example: Bisu is the no.1 PvZ. So realitiscally he's only afraid of the top 3 Zergs for example. From top 4 and below he can overcome the matchup imbalance to beat them with skills. If he's given a run of Sacsri (Ro16), Action (Ro8) and Larva (Ro4), he'd beat them all. Does that already answer your question about why Protoss can beat Zerg in every round? Then in the finals Bisu meets either Soulkey, Soma or Hero where the skill gap is not that big for him to easily overcome the matchup imbalance. That's why you have to balance your data selection. Same size of group for each race okay? | ||

Also I have to single this bit out as it's incredibly stupid lol. For a guy talking so much about skill and understanding of the game =) "You're not eliminated right away" lmao You're closer to being eliminated if you lose a map in Ro24 than you are in Ro8. And that's not even counting the fact that the shame that comes with being eliminated in Ro24 is much bigger lol. And yes historically the best players try stuff more in group stage Bo1s against weaker players that they can easily beat with standard play =) You're trying to twist reality so hard you end up making a clown of yourself. See people, this is what happens when you're more concerned with a personal agenda against another person rather than thinking with your brain to find the truth. | ||
