7 of the 10 top players are all Z, or something like that, as well as their higher win rate (I don't know the exact numbers, but it is significantly higher than the other races, for sure) | ||

It's not that I don't believe some of the anecdotes claiming that zerg is dominant on asian servers, its that I actually like to see proof, numbers that support claims. | ||

There were even numbers in that post you quoted. Gawd. | ||

What is not current? One snapshot from the ladder was taken today/yesterday(May 3) and the rest were from April 18 and 23 before the ladder reset/bug has occurred. | ||

If anything, anything after the reset should be considered null, due to the ladder system being dead. Oh, and if you can point out any changes that SIGNIFICANTLY changed the way the game was played (disregarding the larva bug), I'd gladly take a look at it. If there wasn't a significant change, then the dominance is likely to continue; and there sure aren't enough subtle changes to make a difference. | ||

I don't know the racial distribution or tendencies of Koreans, but I remember hearing that a lot of them play Zerg. If, say, 7 out of 10 players are Zerg, Zerg would have a higher chance of achieving a greater win rate. That chance would only inflate if all the better players believed that Zerg was also the superior race, irregardless of whether it was or not. | ||

That chance would only inflate if all the better players believed that Zerg was also the superior race, irregardless of whether it was or not. It shouldn't mean anything. The winrate % is the average win-rate per player, meaning it would only make a difference if a majority of the Zerg were outliers. Also, irregardless isn't a word >.> | ||

Anyway, I honestly don't even know if there is a bias towards Zerg on the Korean servers. | ||

we're not sure if it will ever be balanced enough for a scene that bw has right now in korea (certainly it won't as balanced or more balanced than scbw, thats impossible) | ||

Isn't that called...Trolling? >.> Anyway, as I said, factional preference doesn't matter at all until outliers come in to play (and only a significant amount) | ||
