At higher levels of gameplay the game used to have tonnes of more effective harass than now-a-days so it was not rare in later games for 60+ workers to die and zerg liked their 100 workers ^^ I don't think you will see that many worker kills recently but that is probably why so many workers were made in that game :D

Ps: Anyone willing to bet that that was Ret? :D

I got an avg SQ of 70 (Lowest 54, highest 85) and I find this very hard to believe since it would be equivelent to high master while I am top gold (facing platinum players time to time). I calculated the stats from my last 10 games which had an avg. income of 650+ (Only one game was below 1100 tho).

Really impressive work tho! Kudos to you for doing this!



average income of 650+ but only 1 game was below 1100?

I chose only the games where the avg income was 650 or higher (for each game)

I get 100+ consistently and I'm low masters

Does that make me a retard when it comes to decision-making?

The macro level of professionals has increased quite a bit since the original OP, I would be curious to see similar numbers from a more recent tournament.

I'm in same shoes man, my macro is GM level but I'm low masters. Yeah, it's probably decision-making

My SQ is about 86 during the last 5 games I played. (One game was a TvT macro game, where i have a SQ of 58)
But I'm just mid master.
I think that pros are constantly beyond 100 nowadays and decision-making has become more important then macro.

This severely needs to be refreshed. I'm bronze-silver and my SQ varies between 55 and 90 in 20mn+ games. (SQ 90 being the only game i managed to win TvP)

@whatthefat: Have not read the whole thread, so forgive me if that has been asked before: Did you ever think about running a regression to try and determine if SQ is the best explanation for winning (or something else)?

If you still have the data, do you mind if I take a look and try my luck?

would anyone be willing to team up and try to get a bigger and more current sample size??? i was thinking we could do 2 random divisions for each league(and all of Grand Master) and do the last three games each has played. What do you all think??? If we all take one division it wont take long.

Do you think there will be any major difference if you data was to be increased substantially?
Maybe if you set up some sort of way to upload excel spreadsheet with the data and peoples Battle.net profile you would be able to confirm/revise your formula.

I am a Gold player. I have a SQ like a Diamond/Platinum. But that obviously doesn't mean I play like one. Anyone can get themselves to mid and late game. Its all about engagements and handling situation which all comes with practice and a clear smart head. If you panic, like I do a lot of the times, little mistakes start adding up into bigger ones.

This thread is great! And has a lot of hard work in it. For someone who is having a good time in Bronze or Silver (winning most of their games) but can't seem to get out of the lower tier leagues, its probably because they SQ is low and they need to find a way to macro more effectiently. I think that's the key for those situations? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Interesting write up.

I tend to have 90-110 in my 20 minute+ games.

Jesus so does that mean that the difference between top masters and low diamond is the difference between GM and masters at least in terms of macro?

Difference between GM and low/mid is much higher than Top masters and low diamond in my opinion. When you are high master the mistakes you make and what you have to improve is much, much less clear than in let's say low diamond.
