Great post, but you did not account for if a player maxes out quickly and then wins without losing significant portions of it, which would cause average unspent resources to skyrocket, and you also did not account for workers lost - losing workers is a big reason why players in higher leagues would need to make more.


Yup, I don't think your first point was accounted for, but the second point was (probably a bit subtle).

"Note that while this is a measure of the number of workers constructed by the end of a game (rather than an actual measure of workers at any stage of a game) it shows the expected profile for worker production across a game."

Those players that made 160 workers are probably those who had to remake from losing a crapton of workers.

I tried putting it in SC2Gears through a plugin, unfortunatly they don't support average income rate and definitly not average resources unspent in their plugin api

You wouldn't happen to be in chemical engineering would you? The format seems similar to the stuff I do in school.

What surprised me the most was that protoss creates the least workers on average! I assumed it would be terran, since they have mules and protoss have chrono boost. Could it be that protoss expands the least, on average? Or that typically protoss loses the fewest probes?


I was wondering about this as well. My first thought was it must be counting Mules, but by the time the first mule is out, Protoss should have a worker lead unless they're chrono-ing tech/units.

The divergence appears to start at the 5-6 minute mark. It's possible for Terran to start the FE by then, but is it possible for the Terran to actually build from it to explain the difference? I know PvP is also the matchup with the latest expansion timing, so that could be dragging down Protoss as well?

Also, I wonder if this is being skewed by 4-gate, since you stop at 20 or so probes which is really early. Other than the 11/11, Terran openings/all-ins don't involve cutting workers do they (they super delay the expansion or pull workers to junk your economy)?


I was surprised that terran did not create more workers than zerg. My reasoning is that P and Z tend to cut a lot of workers in mirror matches, while terran does not.

the task you described is pretty easy to automate with a macro you don't even have to know computer programming to do it (even though it is helpful) ... but i guess that advice comes late

Afaik it is not possible, since AUR and RCR are not shown in the replay file. You would need to emulate the whole game to calculate these numbers, which is not possible without actually watching the replay.

You know what might be cool would be to write a program that analyses a replay and gives the figures shown here. That way players might have the opportunity to gauge if their macro is satisfactory or not. Obviously it wouldn't be a tool that will transform players into GM-material, but it might be a pretty nifty thing. Just sayin'. It's an interesting write up.

Wow amazing post! I loved it.

Calculated my sq, average of 76.24 over 10 games. Masters terran.

Someone get Mvp's sq please!


I actually think Majors macro is better. Major has better macro than idra, and would prob be in the low 90's. DRG has better macro than Idra (a lot better actually) and would be prob be close to 100.



Im gonna quote my self. Took the last 10 games of major. His average SQ was 96. In some games he had over 110. His macro is really insane as I expected. Idras image as a macro isn't really deserved.

I really doubt that DRG or Major has better SQ than MVP.
