Still don't get it. It definitely not race. Clem is yellow, TIME is red, both Terrans
It's not continent, Zest is Korean Protoss (red), Zoun is Korean Protoss (blue)

EDIT: Is it literally in-game color? I couldn't watch yet

They are also going to change the rankings from 1-5, to 1-10 in a few weeks.

Then I demand Maru to have defense at 11, attack at 12 and micro at 14.

Nobody get a 5 in Mentality other than Inno and XY over others. I dont know much about XY as a player to tell it, but Inno probably always has a cool robot-like face, never feel like he has any emotion during the games whatsoever. Thats probably why its a 5?

XY always keeps an (unjustified) optimistic mentality playing against his opponents, though he doesn't stand a chance of winning most of the time.
XY does share something in common with Inno, in terms of both being able to force opponents to play in a pace they are familiar with. The difference is Inno can always win while XY can't...

It was yellow on day one and looked bad when it overlapped so they changed to red and blue and i assume that bath also be the colour they play in game, i figured they just had different colours to make the overlap look okay

This seems probable. Graphics changed a lot from one day to the other. We, the viewers, can see the learning process of the production team.

Added some week 2 hexagons. Some players had their stats changed! While there's arrows to show this in certain cases, some players like Scarlett and Lambo had theirs changed without any indicator.

I don't see Dark's hexagon on the list, but maybe I'm blind? It's at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/974982063?t=2h39m50s if you want to screencap and add it.

I just noticed since I went hunting for it after the DPG vs TL match

Shouldn't macro be also reflected? I cannot relate it directly to any of the dimensions.
There are clear benefits of having "more stuff", and not all players are equal in that regard.

You can't upload more than 25 images per hour to imgur through TL, but you could upload them directly through imgur instead.

Zest having a consistently high micro score is so baffling. He's the definition of "why micro matter when brain/protoss is big?" player.

It's also why I love him as a player. The fact that he can spend 1000 on a zealot warp-in that kills NOTHING but it can still be a net-gain because it had STRATEGIC value proves that the "strategy" part of RTS can still overcome the "real time" aspect.

Even more impressive is the fact that he's gaining value on that 1K warpin while still having another 1K in the bank XD

The new graphics are about win streaks, told by Xiaose in stream. I forget which color represents how many win streaks, but it's obviously a Dragon Ball reference (also told in SCboy's stream).

Cool, I know nothing about Dragon Ball, so Maru had golden background and lightnings over his body, because he's now Pickachu?

Is there a quick explanation for culturally ignorant people like me?

In the Dragon Ball series, particularly its more violent sequel series Dragon Ball Z, many of the characters including the main character Goku must transcend mortal human capability in order to defeat increasingly powerful extraterrestrial threats. While human characters must train to use special techniques and energy blasts, the saiyans (a human-like alien species) such as Goku are able to increase their "power level" by going "Super Saiyan" which turns their hair yellow and causes bright yellow energy to radiate from their body due to the energy they have in their body.

In this case, instead of getting more powerful after losing against more powerful foes like in the manga and anime, the players simply get more powerful (with more glowing) with undefeated win streaks.

Another example of this is in some sports video games in which a basketball or hockey player scoring multiple times in a row becomes "on fire" (literally, in the game) or glows yellow, red, or eventually blue with enough score.
