I think it was going to head that way anyways. I just gave everyone a model for their balance debates to save them time.

Not to mention ThorZain. The whole SlayerS house loves him because he is the epitome of safe, solid play - and very innovative in the lategame too (mass Reapers TvP).

I think that is totally false......and I think you know its false. ThorZain, Illusion, QXC and other foreign terrans have their own type of style that works out for them and can be useful for almost any player.

Np i will still be bashed on ladder for playing "that race".
But i think we will make a full circle and soon Terran will be "that race" again.

This is just about what I expected from Korea after rewatching alot of the TvZs from June.
|
So basically what has happened in Korea is we get basically the same winrates as before the patch, but the matchup is terrible spectating wise whereas before it was the best in the game?
|
what happen is terran don't aim for late game and mixes in a ton of all in early or mid game, as we can see from recent games
|
TvZ Winrate international is constantly going down in all the months we can see. How far shall it go down that there is a reaction??
|
|
Internationally TvZ is still pretty screwed though and as usual Korean stats are affected by one guy winning a lot more than the international one due to low amount of data it has. We are still better to go with international one since it does have 3000 tournament matches played rather than mere 300 spread among all the match-ups.
|
Wait what else are these actually based on then Code A/S and maybe the Korean weekly which shouldnt be enough to push average?
|
What tournaments does the TLPD cover?

One person is still highly unlikely to skew the matchup. Most of the occasions in which Koreans play many games in one month are abroad. In the GSL you just don't play enough games to really skew the data by a massive amount.

in gsl terran got 35% winrate vs zerg in the month of june....this graph is bs
|
I don't believe the TvZ winrate in Korea ~50/50. I'm calling bs on this. I'd like to know who regularly posts this and what games these are derived from.
I finally found out sample size is only 114 for KR TvZ and excludes Code A qualifers, TSL4 qualifiers, VS 996 sample size of international graph. I'm sorry, but I don't believe Koreans adapted to patch perfectly.
Code A + TSL qualifers are 220 sets alone. Good job lying with your statistics. I added TSL and Code A qualifers in from data further in post. Sample size is 334 and TvZ winrate is 41.5% for T. This is why you don't believe everything you hear.

Was just going to say the same... something wrong with the numbers here.
