Nothing surprising here and nothing to rage about. It would be different situation if both players were playing really recently. But as a matter of fact they have been playing poorly for good period of time now. The thing is, (at the pro level) the ZvT match up still favors terrans. Seriously if people haven't figured this out yet I don't know what to say. It's not just an opinion it's a statistical fact. Look at the records of the match up since the proleagues started. It's right there. No matter how much you want to deny it you can't. So it's all very well to say 'they're just playing badly' but the fact is they also have the match up itself to contend with. And on top of that El Nino/GBR is a terrible map. I'm willing to bet money that a terran will win this starleague. | ||

Remember, there are lies, darn lies, and statistics. Never ever ever trust statistics. Specially when it involves random variables, specially starcraft, where the chances of drawing a skillful vs non skillful player is incredibly random. | ||

OSL/MSL winners in 2009: 5 zerg, 1 terran Top 25 players by Elo: 9 terran 10 protoss 6 zerg Average Elos of the top two/three/five players of each race (excluding flash because he's like 200 points above everyone else): Terran: 2229/2224/2206 Protoss: 2218/2207/2192 Zerg: 2240/2221/2194 HOLY FUCK SO IMBALANCED | ||
