Out of the 3364 players currently in Diamond: 883 Zerg 1119 Protoss 920 Terran Out of top 1000 in Diamond: 241 Zerg 359 Protoss 298 Terran Out of top 100 19 Zerg 39 Protoss 36 Terran Observations: 1) Zerg is pretty uncommon in Diamond and at the top level. 2) Protoss is more popular than Terran in lower level Diamond. This is not really the case in the top 100. | ||

P 37.5_33.2 +4.3% T 34.0_27.3 +6.7% Z 23.5_26.4 -2.9% R 5.0_13.0 -8.0% terran is obv ez  these stats are obviously flawed because players don't play 100% one race, but you can still make some interesting inferences. | ||

Stop with these random accusations about how one race is easier or one race is underpowered. The statistics are actually pretty darn close. Game is obviously not totally balanced, but going around acting like you have statistics to support your arguments now really doesn't help. | ||

Diamond top1000 top100 zerg 26,25 24,1 19 protoss 33,26 35,9 39 terran 27,35 29,8 36 random 13,14 10,2 6 Change in share when nearing the top Diamond top1000 top100 zerg 1 -8,19 -27,61 protoss 1 7,92 17,24 terran 1 8,96 31,63 random 1 -22,37 -54,33 From these stats there are tendencies towards: 1) random having a hard time competing at high level play, shown by a 50% decrease when nearing the top of the ladder 2) zerg having trouble when the competitive level is rising, shown by a 25% decrease when nearing the top 3) protoss gaining a steady increase of 8 and 15% when nearing the top 4) terran gaining a huge momentum, going from a 9% to 30% increase nearing the top. Momentum gain could be strategic and/or tactical differences between lower and higher level players of the race or an artifact of uncertainty. This doesn't tell much without knowing the effects of mapselection or having more data from europe and asia. However, the american zergs seems to be less competitive than american protosses and american terrans. | ||

Sure, creep and queens but the easy as hell unit producing makes up for that. | ||

There is little unit and spell/ability diversity. Its mostly expanding and massing units, which I love to do. As with everyone (I think), I'm surprised there is so many randoms. Perhaps the advantage of being unknown for the first minute of the game is actually greater than one would suspect. | ||

Zerg unit production is probably the most difficult imo, balancing between units and drones is what separate the good ones from the bad ones, one bad decision and its GG. T and P have it easier that way. | ||

I know zerg differs in alot of ways from the other two races, but zerg gets glorified way too much on TL. Yeah totally overglorified and actually entirely op, as the statistics suggest. All you have to do is attack move roach hydra, right!? On July 19 2010 05:37 Alou wrote: Protoss - 33.21% Terran - 27.13% Zerg - 26.42% Random - 13.05% That's really not that bad guys.
