INTP/INTJ (i think my scores were right in between the two but I personally associate more with INTP traits) Zerg I expect there will be a very clear association with Introverted Thinking in the RTS community. | ||

INTP Zerg Diamond It's probably important to note that all your statistics will be biased towards the type of people who read online forums. This means your gathered statistics could be of a significantly different subset of starcraft 2 players. | ||

I suspect personalities could be correlated more by these factors than a specific game preference. Not that I know of,... but if anyone finds something of that sort, I hope they'll share it with us here! | ||

zylog # 413 INTP Zerg Diamond I've used some meyers-briggs classifications when coaching people in badminton. It is theorized by some that certain personality indicators or combinations of indicators result in many common strengths and weaknesses, which in practice I believe to be true. In many sports having a working idea of the personality types of the athlete will give you insights into the tactics and strategies they choose, their playstyle, etc. A few indicators that may be interesting to think about: S vs N - S types are typically often better at sports because they pay more attention to the outside environment which allows them to react quickly and adjust their movements to what's going on around them. N types will typically add an extra layer of processing: "well, what does this mean in the context of my plan?" which can potentially slow down the speed of their reactions but can be of benefit in a highly strategic activity. P vs J - J types like to have very logical, step by step decision making processes e.g. I scout X, hence I need to build Y to counter. In such situations, they are more focused on the key information that affects what they are trying to do. P types are less inclined to focus hard on specific items, but instead perceive everything at once and make decisions by instinct. At lower levels a J player would probably have the advantage since he would likely be better at following a solid build order with precision. At higher levels, P types may gain some advantage as they are more likely to instinctively make right decisions under unusual situations, with the assumption that at these levels opponents will try to force you to play strategies that you're not comfortable with. Evaluating type gets more complicated when a person has developed some skill in an activity. For instance, someone whose personality type is more inclined towards creative decision making can benefit a lot from drilling a basic build order over and over again. This would bring his mechanics up to par so he can use his strength, which lies in decision making, to win games at a higher level. To complicate things further, if this person benefits greatly from that training, he'll extol the benefits of it, but it may not be as beneficial for other types, for instance those whose mechanics are pretty good but lack imagination for the later game. At high levels, players have such refined play that it's hard to come up with simple examples relating playstyle to personality type. However, when things break down due to pressure (and they will in a sufficiently competitive environment), some of these differences will manifest themselves. | ||
