Imo the graph reflects quite heavily the meta-game, best example I can give is how ghost timings against toss started getting popular around mid 2011, which are terran's highest points in the graph.

Edit*: Ignoring the "weird" December period.

Differences of a few percent, that's pretty cool. I hope people did note the scale/values not just the relative magnitudes of the lines. A few percent is what I would call balanced pretty much, totally accountable to "meta-game" shifts and the rise of good players (as I am assuming the data is done by games, not by individual player win percentage, and better players get further in tournaments and win more games...). That's a point actually.

@hasuterrans Did you take the win percentage of all P, T & Z games? I'm guessing so from the OP. Another way to do it is to average individual players win percentages in particular match ups, so that exceptional individual players (e.g. Nestea, or MC when he dominated) aren't over-represented just because they play more games. I defer to your superior knowledge on this ofc but just interested on your thinking on it.

+ Show Spoiler +
The more you win, the further in the tournament you get, so the more games you play. Overall I guess that doesn't make a big difference though and all three races probably have an identical gaussian distribution of players, so same effect upon all three.


I didn't make the graph I just posted it. You can tweet the guy (see link in op) who makes these or pm him. He's super responsive to suggestions. His TL id is Ctuchik.

Every matchup within the 55-45 range is pretty ok imo, there are other stuff that can influence balance such as maps, metagame shifts and the time it takes the other race to respond, some players who perform really well and influence the percentage (especially in Korea) etc. The game looks pretty balanced right now, well untill the new HOTS units come along and destroy this

I didn't know toss were doing so poorly against zerg, but to be fair i only watch HerO's games and hes basically inflating the graph loll

Everything is looking quite nice But I think tvz is a matchup that needs to be addressed. Z seems too weak.

Well if you use these statistics to claim that terran was overpowered versus protoss before, or that it's the other way around since the patch... then you will have to draw the conclusion that terran is overpowered against zerg.


Edit: Personally I don't think this is the case; I think in general that win percentages is a useless way of measuring balance. But that's just me.
The truth is, Yagami-kun, I suspect that you may in fact be Kira.

Hmm that is pretty awesome, although I'd really like to see there be more games than 279 ?? Did I really read that right? They did the stats off the results of 279 games? Honestly, there can be a significant difference between different batches of 279 games.. That's definitely NOT enough games to post stats about to be statistically correct. At least make it a 1k minimum or something before posting like this :-/ Hopefully I'm just reading it wrong.

Yup. These stats conclusively prove beyond doubt that those cheaper upgrades and the EMP nerf makes PvT absolutely broken in favour of the Protoss.

Yeah, for the korean stats that's not a whole lot of games.
On the other hand, there's not exactly a whole lot of korean games PERIOD, so it'd be kind of hard to get 1000 games/month for the korean stats. Just the way things work out unfortunately. :/
So take the stats with a grain of salt, I guess? Don't overreact to sudden changes?

Seriously, dude. It's been one month. One bad month. Just chill and let the game develop a little.

Does anyone thinks its funny that in:
PvT Protoss has the better end
ZvT Terran has the better end
ZvP Zerg has the better end
?

it's the easiest way to achiev balance, a counter systen



lol
so you think blizzard is trying to balance the game by making Terran win vs zerg zerg win vs Protoss and Protoss winning vs Terran?

thats kinda stupid since it is obviously not the way it is

>zerg player< "Z is weak buff it"
>protoss player< "toss is weak buff toss"
>terran player< "I like nachos!"

Why would anyone who plays anything else then random ever have any saying in whats balanced or whats not? I mean clearly evry opinion here is biased as hell:D

The KR stats may be surprising, but I can virtually assure you the reason is lack of infestor usage as everyone in KR goes muta ling bling. The more people start to use infestor the more Z will start winning vs T.

and what is that based upon?
"I can assure you, once Terrans start to build only medivacs without any units that can actually shoot the terran winrates will reach 100%"...

There are various reasons why players play infestors or why players play mutalisks. From what you can read on TL, you will hear most high level Terrans say that they are more comfortable against early Infestors than against early mutalisks.
