I can't seem to find a straight answer to the question of *How many people play Starcraft2* or how many monthly The closest I found is one website that shows how many ranked teams there are. But a ranked team can have 5-20 players or something? Any solid stat on this number? Out of sheer curiosity. Thanks | ||

This is 1v1 ranked teams. Which would be 1 player, so world wide you're looking at around 500k accounts per season | ||

Right now there are 1.21m ladder games played per day across all game modes (1v1, 2v2, etc), weighted by the number of players in each game mode. If we assume that an average active user plays 5 games per day then that translates to 240k daily active users. As an rough estimate, there's another 250k co-op players, so 500k daily active players total. | ||

Ranked FTW is the closest we can get to a "solid stat" on the active player population. | ||

Should not the numbers be higher because there are also people who play unranked 1v1 and etc and rankedwtf only counts ranked games? | ||
