False. For example on Guardian, where elbow is the obvious superior spawn, I have spawned on elbow as both red and blue on a variety of occasions. The same is true for any map with spawn imbalance. Saying that one colour always spawns on one side is ridiculous and untrue. | ||

My guess would be that red snipers are harder to spot than blue snipers? Weird to see though. Most arena servers you are put on random team, some let you pick. On all the other maps you select team color when you join and have way more team stacking. Interesting, no, that arena has closer to even, and blue winning slightly. | ||

If they want to generalize to several online video games, they have to conduct the study in at least more than one video game. There's other studies that link it to real life as well. One of them was a study of combat sports in the 04 olympics and in combat sports where protective equipment colour is randomly assigned red actually wins a small but statisically greater amount. | ||

As you might know, horde is red, alliance is blue. just throwing it out here... Has probably more to do with the "mighty human heroes" vs "villains" theme. Blue and Red are not really present in PvP and PvE fights. This is also pretty old news that red increases your success. I remember watching a document couple of years ago about this and they suggested you to wear red shirt for exams. ^^ E: PROTIP: Buy red screen so theres always a little bit red for you when you play (the edges of monitor). | ||
