I play all three races at Diamond level, and this corresponds with my own personal experiences. Playing Terran is like hard mode for Starcraft 2. ZvT is mind numbing-ly easy, you just don't make a huge mistake, get to late game, you just a move and win. You don't attack, not much micro, no scouting needed.

I don't understand why this doesn't get more attention. Am I interpreting the numbers wrongly or does terran show a MAJOR defficit in MMR?

I think the fact that it's within ~50 MMR, out of 2000 plus, it's not that big a deal. Unless i'm also grossly misunderstanding the data.

From what i'm understanding (and correct me if i'm wrong), T loses an average of 1-3 more games a season than the others?

Yeah, Skeldark found a good objective method to prove that Terrans on the whole have lesser MMR.
It is funny that only posters with some kind of stipulations of his methods are those with Zerg icons.

omg....U cant say that terran is doing terrible in tvz and so on lately when terrans have been getting the best results lately they have been winning all the more recent tournaments besides the recent na regional terrans have won. Mlg summer arena 1, Asus rog summer, Campus EU. IEM, ESV grandfinals and just overall good results and people say how tvz zerg is so imba when terrans have been doing just fine against zerg and I feel if u really are losing every game against zerg with terran u don't know how to play your race when there are terrans like taeja with a 82% win rate in tvz. and as Sheth says u cant say your race is so bad when its doing really good.

and being a zerg player I have noticed that when I play against terran a terran player will do some of the stupidest stuff ever and then they will lose because of it and its stupid because after they will talk about balance like they lost all because they chose to play terran no you were just the dumbest player in the game so just think as ur looking through these comments there are terrans out there that do stupid stuff and then complain about balance just because they can

and another thing I remember a time where terrans complained about protoss ALOT and how tvp protoss is op blah blah blah. AND then zerg got a buff to help deal with helions so they got a queen buff and the whloe point of this buff was to kind of help when 4 helions come to your nat so they don't slip into your main because after that happens its pretty much gg.
and then after the buff no changes were made for terran or protoss but yet terrans just moved on and started complaining about zerg. and now Terran are doing really well against protoss and so on so I find that to be really dumb as well.

So overall alot of terrans out there are just stupid. thank you

It's also no coincidence that every Terran Icon seems to aggree with him; people are okay with the race they play being "proven" to be UP, because it makes them feel better about their accomplishments, and justifies troubles they have. While Zerg (and Protoss too) who have problems against Terran, when drawing from their own experience, feel that the Terran UP data doesn't fit their personal experience, so they seek to disprove it, or find something incorrect with the data.

Are u dumb, or just having difficulties with reading comprehension?
Where did I say that Terrans are doing terrible? They are just doing worse on the ladder - simple as that.

Also - before huge Zerg buffs, Nestea, DRG and Fruitdealer won GSL, not even speaking about Stephano or other Zergs in foreigner tournaments who won many times before patch. You see where Im coming? Yes, fact that single player is doing good with given race doesn't prove that certain race is balanced or not.

I'm not saying they're right, I'm saying in explains the behavior. It doesn't matter how objective the method is, people like hearing there race is harder than the others, and don't enjoy it vice versa.
