Not exactly sure how players are distributed into divisions, but considering that many of the top players are going to hit Diamond much quicker than most it makes since that many of them got placed into the same ones. | ||

As someone else mentioned, throughout beta there was roughly equal representation of all the races. I don't believe this would have changed drastically at release, and even if it did, players who have only played the game for a week are unlikely to have a major effect on these numbers--most of these players probably played through the beta.

I'm pretty sure that TvZ is pretty heavily imbalanced, but I'm also pretty sure a lot of Protoss players are overstating the imbalance of TvP. | ||

Well top players don't really care for ladders, it is not very good training : too much cheese, bad players do not make you better, and there is no consistency from one match to the other. They still play it to keep their reflexs up or if no strong friend is available. But yeah top players have a walk in the park on the ladder : ) | ||

There is no mainland china server as the game is not released, and will probably not release for a little while | ||

Don't assume causality. 1000x this. We need matchup data (ex. TvZ TvP PvZ win percentages) I suspect (as many would) TvZ is T>Z TvP is even PvZ is even also, we need matchup data for each map. | ||
