It's really interesting to me to see that many INTJs at masters, but for them to be evened out with INTPs at grandmasters. I wonder if there is something to it. And something about the lowering count of INFJs makes me want to work even more to be one that finally does achieve it :D I'm at top masters now.

Keep in mind any internet polls tend to be N-favored, because S types prefer to "just do it" not discuss it online. Most progamers are for sure Sensors (top group is ISFP (eg: Flash, Bisu); but also ISTP (eg: Jaedong)). N-progamers are rare and really stand out from the others. Examples: Socke-INTJ and TLO-INTP. /none of these types are confirmed, just my view!/

pretty much what I was going to post. pretty useless necro imo, basically going to see an internet based grouping as expected. not very interesting.

I got ISFP, and all I can determine is that a lot of us don't play Starcraft or are like me and only ladder once in a blue moon.

Personality Type: ISFP
League: I don't actually play on BN. Is Bronze the lowest you can go? I think I'd be diarrhea brown or something like that
Race: usually Terran
Estimated total games: 20-ish
Do you have any SC:BW experience: Yes, but mostly 1-2 human players vs CPU
Do you feel personality type effects your SC2 experience and if so, why: Yep. I am more interested in goofing off and doing weird things than winning, and in reading about top players than actually playing.

That's BS. Why would you tell your expected result before the experience? Why would you show to your subjects which types are the rarest and thus automatically the most famous? I mean like comon I am obvioulsy part of 2% of the population, who doesn't ? :D.
knowledge is like jam, the less you have the more you spread.

Actually, that's a good point. I've seen a few of these personality polls and they are often skewed by "revealing the right answer" first. It's probably a combination of people trying to answer the test so they get Flash/Bisu, and people who don't get Flash/Bisu feeling like pond scum and shutting up.

Can we say it again? THERE IS NO BEST TYPE. I wish I were an E instead of an I. We don't always get what we want in life. If you're an ENTJ and therefore the polar opposite of Flash (or what we think he is), so what. Wear your anti-Flash badge proudly. A world with nothing but Flash clones would be insanely boring.

INFJ (but only the N was a strong preference)

The test is silly pseudoscience though. :p

Do you have any Sc:BW experience: Yes
Do you feel personality type effects your SC2 experience and if so, why: It definetly, does. The way you feel after winning or losing has a direct impact on your experience in the game. The ability to express your emotions and understand how it may impact others is significant in a game where there is constant BM, and name calling at other people.

The problem with your hypothesis, and the preliminary results seems to confirm this, is that instead of reflecting different leagues, the data will simply reflect the fact that certain personality types are predisposed towards gaming (and strategy gaming especially). While INTJ may be 2% of the general population, I can assure you that the numbers for a gaming community will be quite different. Without knowing these base population numbers, inference about the relationships between league and personality type is useless.

And this critique is just about the hypothesis, not going in to the numerous design flaws that would create error even if the hypothesis was valid.

This thread is old but we need to keep collecting this data. I hope that if you're reading this, you'll participate in the poll! It is the single best resource there is for understanding what mbti types are the most drawn to or the most adept at this game - whatever it is that will be derived from the data. I am actually considering trying to get pro gamers to take the tests and then create a nice post introducing the community to these players by their type, or visa versa. Additionally, I'm really interested in attempting to see if something can be noticed about personality type and what we observe as being a characteristic approach to the game. I think that we should be able to, and that that would be really interesting!
