I appreciate you posting these since I'm not in beta to see them so I'll take you up on comparing the players you had last week with this week.
(My first post here so didn't know how to make a table look nice so its in narrative form)
1. Oversky went 86-46 (65%) this week. This is 8% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (73%). New overall win rate: 71%
2. Smuft went 110-43 (72%) this week. This is 9% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (81%). new overall win rate: 78%
3. Lorelei went 75-49 (60%) this week. This is 13% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (73%). New overall win rate: 67%
4. CowGoMoo went 7-2 (77%) this week. This is 15% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (92%). New overall win rate: 91%
5. vOidwards went 37-26 (62%) this week. This is 9% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (71%). New overall win rate: 70%
6. CrunCher went 43-31 (58%) this week. This is 13% lwoer than their overall win rate going into this week (71%). new overall win rate: 68%
7. philanderer went 24-14 (63%) this week. This is 6% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (69%). New overall win rate: 68%
8. Real went 18-16 (53%) this week. This is 10% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (63%). New overall win rate: 56%
9. hotsauce went 110-100 (52%) this week. This is 6% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (58%). New overall win rate: 56%
10. Dev went 36-31 (54%) this week. This is 4% lower than their overall win rate going into this week (58%). new overall win rate is 57%
I only compared people who were number 1 last week as I don't have the data on what the new number 1s were last week.
Some other observations.
1. Average decline in this weeks records with their overall win percentage from all games before this week was 9.3%
Analysis: The field is tightening quickly. Not a single player who was the top of a platinum leage last week was able to maintain their same win percentage. This clearly shows that the field as a whole is getting better.
2. Overall win rates of these 10 players dropped an average of 2.7% The large dispartiy between this and the weekly declind of 9.3% suggests to me that the game is tightening faster than the win loss rates indicate as its the volume of games these players played early on that really helps keep their records looking so incredible.
3. The total record of these players this week was 546-358 (60%).

Nice first post Yoren, welcome to TL =)

the reason why win rate is going down is because ever since either the first or second patch, blizzard fixed the matchmaking system to where it is willing to take a lot longer to find an opponent to actually match your skill level. a lot of people had inflated records before the first-second patch because the previous matchmaking system would match you up with a noob if it didnt find a capable opponent within the first 10 seconds of search.

:O I hope that is actually dinot, that would be sweet if he came back.

Thanks for posting, keep us updated

iono, top 4 in my division (including myself) play T
I think that once people figure out how to use T effectively it's going to be just as good or better than the other races

I just discovered that the number of ladders you can access through your friends is limited. What it means is that if you have a large number of people on your friend list and you look at "Your friend's leagues", it will display only the leagues for your 30 highest ranking friends. If it was only that, it would be fine, but no...even if you look at your friend's profile, and he's ranked outside that top 30 of your list, you will not even be able to see it's ladder, unless you have someone else in that top 30 in that same division.
In short, that makes it a total nightmare to have people on the 22+ 2v2 platinum ladders on your friend's list as well as having your real friends on there. Specially when you have players that rank high in all their teams (which often ended up with 2 teams in the same league...)
That specific limitation just set me back at least half an hour of profile browsing to find players on every 2v2 ladders...
edit : does anyone have the full ID of BuMrUsH (or something like that), he's the only player I have on the 2v2 division 4...? I would also need the full ID of at least one player in the 2v2 Plat. divisions 19 and 21 ??
With these info I should be able to post the entire 2v2 platinum league (well, unless there are more than 22 divisions).

I wrote a script yesterday morning that does this, I'll be posting it but it might be a day or two as news or something. It adds up the winrates of all the top 8 though by race, not individual players.
Thanks for posting this. Also, the friends don't need to be online, they just have to be in your list (and it looks to me like you don't need to be mutual friends or whatever to do it).
Yoren: great work thanks for that!

I gotta admit it feels pretty good to be number one in division 18. I'm the terran named Nikola. I went from bronze league (lol i know, so bad) to gold and just now have been put into platinum. Took a bit to get to number one in platinum though. Gotta get to 2000 ELO gogogo

I think SC2 is going to be a way different game, where kors wont dominate (as much) because of the ease of control.

Whoever puts in the most time, will dominate. Similarly, whichever region has the best E-Sports infrastructure will most likely dominate. Hopefully MLG, Blizzard, and others don't screw up the perfect storm for SCII. SC II could very well be as big as Halo in the NA E-Sports scene (Contracts of millions, ESPN televised, etc.). If it comes to that, I could very well see a thriving competition between NA and Asia, and if the Europeans get something similar (ESL?, TV viewers, etc.), then we could see a cool three-way dynamic where each region develops their own meta-games.
Who knows, though. All conjecture at this point. Contrary to popular belief Asians are not born with RTS genes. :p

My (Lorelei) winrate dropped too because I switched races from Protoss to Terran
I lost 100+ points when I did that from losing so many games off that lol.
