Why are Eastern Europeans so good at strategy games. In Chess they have dominated for decades. In SC2 they are becoming a staple as well. Pretty interesting. I guess it's more-so in Chess anyway, they dominate there whereas here they just seem to consistently produce good players.


It is cold there so they stay more indoors and get to practice more


Maybe so. I think I've heard similar arguments from anthropologists before on why they have been so successful in Chess (this goes back to before the Soviet regime implemented insanely powerful chess programs for their country which launched them into complete dominance). Interesting stuff though.

The ED-209 sound button, installed on every good soundboard :D.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I wonder, why do casters never include the mules in the worker counts? It's easy, 1 mule = 4 workers, but they always rank SCVs and mules separately.

Id love to see some statistics on why a mule is worth exactly 4 scvs?

Well, not exactly, but within a very reasonable margin of error. I don't remember the exact numbers, but I am sure that Liquipedia has some info.

Well, since a mule is temporary I dont think it's a good idea to count them over into real worker-currency

You kinda just assume the terran drops them continuously, it's not a very accurate science

Haha, what? Where have I said anything that would lead you into thinking that? If anything what I said would probably hint more towards them not being out all the time (they are not like regular workers).

I think he meant WigglingSquid. Either way 40scvs + 2 mules is much better than just saying 48scvs.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

You're reading his comment wrong. It's not you as in you, Coolhwip. It's you as in the inpersonal pronoun.

Interesting stuff though.


Probably partly true that chess programs produce talent, but there probably also exists a non negligible population of ashkenazi (in russia that is) and their genetic distinction is to have significantly higher IQ than average, and are as a consequence consistently good at math and chess.
