That's it! They'll all get brilliantly paid academic jobs after their career ends.

I really hope this was a joke. Or that you confuse IQ with APM.


i would say all korean pro got a iq over 130
i mean u need to be smart to even be able to understand the game at all
knowing how your units gonna move, what they gonna do, how to micro them... its a lot
of work for your brain combining all this things



you have to be kidding T_T


except the crappy guys who are only at 50% win TT.

there is noo way to measure IQ.. every person has a different learning style which makes it impossible.

Seems like 58% percent of TL.net are missunderstood geniuses.
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

@ Wizard:
Oh please. Don't even try to compare chess and SC. The games are incomparable on so many levels...
Your argument could also be applied to soccer, for example. Or just about any other physical sport.
Fast speed is the enemy of detailed thinking, that's one big reason why SC can't be compared with chess and is not a "game for intellectuals".
Which doesn't mean that SC is bad, but it's just a completely different thing. More like a sport, while chess is a mental game. And fast-paced sports games can never be compared to things like chess.
If SC were like you described, it would already be renowned world-wide.
I really like SC too but making claims like that is just ridiculous.

The reason it isn't renowned world-wide is because it is a video game.

I think that compare starcraft skills with iq is stupid.
One of my friends was B+ on pgtour, and his iq tested at 94.
And (for who compares maths with starcraft skills) my friend was bad at maths, but good at sports.

From what I hear 120 is around above-average, so I put that. I'm no genius but I believe I'm at least slightly smarter than whatever is considered average (but then again I'm pretty sure everyone believes that about themselves )

I consider myself to be a bit smarter than the average. But unfortunately it seems like I share this idea with just about every dumbass out there. Based on this, I estimate my IQ to be around 65.

I assume I'm slightly above average in some areas (I rock standardized tests in Literature and Language stuff + I always do really well in AP stuff tests but maybe that means nothing. I'm just going by general intelligence which is not the same iirc? IQ is your capacity for intelligence I think?) but.. I've never taken one so I'll just throw out the average score.

119 on drone's test.

Still, according to the poll I'm one of the dumber people here, which seems kinda weird to me because I don't work a lot and am still able to follow the highest education Holland has to offer pretty easily. Sounds to me like a lot of people are clueless on their iq or made some test aimed at 12 year olds or something like that. That or this site is filled with pure geniusses, which is pretty hard to believe when you read some posts here.)

Not to mention the amount of people who're voting below 70 here are obviously all lying, if you're below 70 I doubt you've ever played starcraft at all.

But I guess it's not really the point of the poll to be accurate anyway seeing as it's for a psychology project.

I've never taken a pofessional one, only online ones. Do they almost purely measure math/puzzle/problem solving skills? If so, I don't really think that's an accurate measurement of intelligence. I'd estimate I'm around 115-125, just comparing myself to other people who've had professional ones.

I don't study. Exam year of VWO, and I'm joining the army next year (infantry officer).
