Breaking it down by quarter, you get, for the first place:
Terran/Zerg/Protoss:
Jan - May: 6, 2, 2
April - Jun: 3, 4, 3
Jul - Oct: 3, 5, 4
Nov - Dec: 1, 2, 4

For second place:
Terran/Zerg/Protoss
Jan - May: 3, 5, 2
April - Jun: 1, 3, 6
Jul - Oct: 2, 6, 4
Nov - Dec: 2, 2, 3

Granted, this doesn't exactly say a lot, it shows that terran completely wrecked faces in the start of the year, and then slowly faded away into the void. on another note, anyone that knows how to make this easier to read? it looks like a mess

It's ok, but the sheer volume of ZvZs lately outweighs that IMO

Too many people in this thread seem to be focusing way too hard on number of tournament wins by each race (including Khaldor) when the problem is stale and unvaried viewer experience. You would not see nearly as much complaining, even if one race was winning more than the other if the games were actually varied and interesting again.

Just imagine what the conversation would be like if we still had pre Queen buff TvZ, yet Zerg was still edging out tournament victories. I can pretty much guarantee it would be much different, because those games were varied, and very skill based.

No one cares about facts anymore. We've let people feel like they're entitled to whine way too much.

People just live in a fantasy world at this point. There's this idea that everything a Terran does is so insanely difficult, Terran players are so good...They should win every game really. And Zergs? All they do is a-move. Fungal is basically like a-moving anyway. Mutas? That's not real harassment. It's easy, zerg harassment. Splitting (NOT broodlords) , force fields, this is the only micro that counts. Never mind that it's actually probably easier to harass than it is to defend harassment;Terran players are better because they drop stuff. Even when they lose they're better.

Fortunately if you just get off the Internet you realize that people are usually not as retarded as the vocal minority that infested starcraft would make you think.

Khaldor,
I have several problems with this.

Basically you say don't qq, but the reason for this is that we feel like its falling on deaf ears. Like when you casted the GSTL at IPL4 and people were shouting we want lan. They added this in HOTS.

The biggest problem that i have is how many people are not interested in the game anymore from zerg imbalance. Fundamentally, I don't feel like subscribing to the GSL right now when every tournament is infestor broodlord corruptor. I think that has to be the number one driver of the game. Money. Money talks. I think that the reason why you should not say things like this is that your livelihood depends on blizzard fixing this. I have long argued that adding 1 food supply cost for infestors and brood lords would basically fix the game. Zergs could still do a spine drop to get higher than 200 supply.

Tournaments try to add certain maps to make other races more viable. Most tournaments use ohana now just to give toss a chance. I hate watching PvZ on ohana. Its just aweful.

I'm surprised that you are supporting balance right now more than anyone else. Match win rates are way more important that tournament wins. I think your argument is weak. The question I have is how many people are still going to watch starcraft or play hots if they are not confident in the leadership. Money talks, don't forget that.

In the GSL the players with the highest match winrates are
1. Life, sniper DRG, leenock, hyun for individuals.
2. sniper, yonghwa, symbol, Leenock, JYP for the team games.

How many fight clubs did hyun win?

I want to see creator, squirtle, parting, supernova, marineking, MVP, rain, seed, Yonghwa, Major, have a fighting chance in the future. I don't feel like blizzard is part of the community any more for being so passive about this for so long. [/QUOTE]

they dont have a fighting chance? 7 of those u mentioned are in the top 20 in earnings this year

I think that measuring the game's balance by the amount of championships won by a race is also a fundamentally flawed say to do it. I mean, there are just so many factors that can change who wins a championship, such as pure luck, the skill of the player, the races of the players invited, the races of the players available, the races of the players who chose to attend after qualifying, the maps played, the condition of the players at the time they play, etc., etc.

Given all of those factors, I'd say this thread is pretty inconclusive.

I showed a game to a friend that plays little and spectates less. It was Life v Scarlett.

Life was harassing and doing damage all game long and my friend was really getting into the game. Then there was a big battle where armies just lined up ship-of-the-line style and a billion infested terrans came out on both sides. No-one, including the casters, knew what was going on and when the dust settled, Scarlett was ahead. From that moment on the game was a joke.

We cannot have a spectator strategy game if the result of games is down to silly spamming engagements where no-one knows the outcome. From the spectator's perspective, we could have those battles decided by rolling die.

My biggest problem isn't about what race wins most, it's just that it's not entertaining to watch that really annoys me.

I totally agree with you, i think the problem is that zerg dont have choici do go infestor broodlords which is NOT spectator friendly. Blizz have done a good thing in WoL by nerfing infestor and buffing other zerg tech (hydras, mutas, ultras...).

Maybe hots will be more cool to watch but i'm afraid the damage is done.

Wait, what? No. We were discussing whether "zvz is really fun to watch these days"? What has this got to do with balance?

Opterown, ZvZ is actually a MU I used to like a lot. But its current version tends to be less viewer friendly. And the culprit is still the infestor.

After I posted this on Reddit a few people argued that the information should rather be posted on TL. So here you go:

As it's nearly the end of 2012 now and after all the recent balance whining I was curious about the results in Premier Tournaments in 2012. So I took the liberty of having a closer look at Liquipedia and the race distribution for 1st and 2nd place finishers in 2012. Here are the results:
  • Zerg: 1st - 13 times, 2nd - 16 times
  • Protoss: 1st - 13 times, 2nd - 15 times
  • Terran: 1st - 13 times, 2nd - 8 times

What does this mean? I'm not trying to say the game is balanced. Nor am I saying that certain units (Infestors hi?) don't need to be changed. All I am saying is that these days everyone echoes "facts" they've read on Twitter, Reddit or here on TL whithout even thinking about them. The game is certainly not perfect and there are a lot of things that need to be changed, BUT it is nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be these days.

TLDR: StarCraft2, even though not balanced, is not AS imbalanced as people might want you believe it is


Go play ladder as T at a decently high level on any ladder and
- take an economic/army/whatever advantage against T and see how it plays out
- take an economic/army/whatever advantage against P and see how it plays out
- take an economic/army/whatever advantage against Z and enjoy only being barely behind.

Or watch high level terrans stream. People lose from 1-2 bases up. I won't disagree with the fact that, hypothetically, on a 14 hour/day practice scenario, the best korean terran playing flawlessly can have a perfectly even game vs the best Z. Anything below perfection for the Terran just gets punished too easily.

I respect you a lot, but you're just wrong on this one.

People don't echo thoughts off twitter, they state their own thoughts after playing/following the game. They get frustrated. Blizzard, while probably focused on HoTS just ignores this matter, so naturally, people will get angry and even more vocal.

I agree with saying that 'it's not as bad as some make it to be' - at the same time, it also doesn't help pretending that Z doesn't have serious 'issues' at the moment.

Khaldor: Look at these numbers guys - maybe we could calm down the balance complaining abit?


Community: Lemmie ****ing tell you why these numbers are completely useless and why it's okay for me to complain all the time.

Then proceeds to talk about balance and problems with the game...


T_T

Nice try Khaldor! <3

Pointless to try to change the game with HOTS 2 months away. Hots will have a lot more variety of play, and will be overall more symetricly balanced. Zerg definetly wont be favored late game, i would say protoss might be, but not by a huge margin. Mid game zerg will have more pressure possibilities thanks to hydra speed, new improved mutaslisks, and swarm hosts. Terran will be able to have some sort of map control mid game with widow mines, and finally, mass spine infestor turtle definetly wont be viable in zvp anymore, spines might become a waste of money late game thanks to the tempest.

Overall, you can expect a very exciting first few months of Hots, until people discover that this god damn new toss air army is pretty damn strong LOL.
