Interesting stats, Tal Darim has always felt very balanced to me in my ladder games.


I love playing tal'darim vs zerg or terran (i am protoss).
I hate it for protoss so much that i just veto.

i know a lot of zergs hate tal'darim as well because 2 queens doesnt block ramp.

The most favoured protoss map is 53% (pvz), come on blizz we need more P favoured maps please.

Looks like there are no PvT favoured maps, only vice versa. Its tuff to be a toss these days seriously!

Nope, cloud kingdom has TvP 45% which means PvT 55%


I wonder why cloud kingdom is the only one where protoss wins vs terran?

I bet you it is really hard for terran to drop protoss on that map, because you can simultaneously defend the third and main from drops on the left, and defend nat and main from drops on the right.


I wouldn't take this too seriously but I'd definitely still recommend keeping this info in mind. I love shattered temple as a zerg because the middle is so wide open but now I find out it's heavily Terran favored. I'm still going not going to veto the map because my playstyle really fits the map and I do well on it. So again I wouldn't take this all that seriously when considering your own play and which maps to veto. Not having a P favored map isn't necessarily a bad thing, as long as the percentages are close to 50% that's all that really matters.

What are the winrates for each matchup for the various game lengths? SC2Gears reports this.


Now this would be some good data statistically.

Could you report on the winrates per matchup on various game length OP?


It doesn't report it directly. You can get an individual players' WR by game length, and you can get their WR by matchup. But you can't get matchup win rates for a group of players. You have to get a group of replays, paste the data into Excel, and then do a bunch of stuff. It's not rocket science, but it is work. (Work I'd be willing to do if someone has a zip file with 30K replays :D)


Oh damn, I didn't realize it only did it on a per-player basis. That sucks.

Wow, TDA looks really balanced, and I do love playing on that map.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Shattered temple stats really surprise me. zvp vs FFE you can't take a fast third, and zvt seems balanced to me. Maybe ease of 4 bases for terran? I would assume it'd be worse than shakuras for sure, late game zvt is impossible on that map.

if there's anything to gain from this it's that map balance should really become a priority for blizzard as opposed to needlessly shifting the bunker build timing back and forth 5 seconds. if we could only have stats for non-blizz maps as well. i have a feeling that they will be dramatically better than some of the ones in the OP

Several of the maps in the OP are non-Blizzard maps.

I don't get the TDA stats. PvZ is nearly impossible there if zerg goes for mutalisks.
