a dps caculation chart for all units (original data from http://sc.178.com/read.php?tid=4152&_fp=5)

pretty interesting when you see dps through cooldown and the range and the upgrade, very different view

Wow thanks, this is awesome!

Biggest surprise to me was how much DPS thors and battlecruisers have. Also phoenixes have higher DPS and health than vikings, so that means...

so since carrier is 6 interceptors, it's 19.98 and 31.98 after upgrades

also interesting to see that the thor and BC have the highest DPS to ground of all units in the game.
and the strike cannon ability of the thor is huuuuge dps.

how do these compare to sc1 dps charts?
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Very cool chart.

That said, I am surprised to see just how slow the Roach and Corrupter attacks are. They feel really slow in game but it is interesting to see just how slow.

good post...I was working on something similar to that but school work took precedence.

To better compare the units, the data should be normalized, I believe.

edit

Has anyone ever taken data like this and made a quick reference chart? Something you could quickly glance at in order to help determine what units are necessary to counter your opponents unit choices?

I think that is the hellions without the upgrade to do damage to light units, but yeah, it also tells that how good aoe attack of hellions really are, so no one dare to give it better attack.

I also have a chart for all the movement speed of units, but as it less useful, I will post later.

Do probes and SCVs have the same DPS as drones? I don't see them on the spreadsheet.

Might be useful to factor in unit cost as well.

The Stalker has by far the lowest DPS, other then the Hellion which isn't a staple unit and it does splash. I think this is a problem

I'm pretty sure roaches get +2 for upgrades. so fully upgraded dps should be 11, not 9.5.

Also the ultralist is +4, not +2 per upgrade. I wouldn't take this spreadsheet as gospel.

It would also be really useful to see DPS vs. various armor amounts, as stuff like Carriers are impacted much more by armor than stuff like tanks.
