Hello,

I went to sc2ranks today and saw there was a stats section with the procentage of the different races distributed in the leagues. So i decided to make a graph!

[image loading]

Correlation seen
The zerg procentage rises all the way to the masters league. This is probably because the
race is so different from the terran, protoss and races in other rts. It even surpasses the percentage of terrans in the masters league!

The terran procentage falls all the way to the masters league(almost). This is probably because of all the players who started with the terran race because they played the race in the campaign and also the reason written above.

Here is one for win percentage - Please note that bronze is not included, so that its easy to see the changes for the other leagues.

Enjoy

Ps. The graphs were made in openoffice - Download here if you want to play around with it

Makes sense.
Except that I feel like I get A LOT more zerg and terran compared to protoss. Which is sad cuz I like ZvP

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Not surprised to see the huge spike in zerg players in the higher leagues. I've long believed that zerg takes the most skill to play and has the highest skill ceiling. (I'm a protoss player BTW.)

Is this info current? Such as in collected in the past week? Pretty cool.

Something that'd be interesting to see if you could do it, would be to show what the race distributions were before/after certain key times such as: release, after the roach buff, and after patch 1.2. But if this is current, then you already have the last one ^^

If you need help, let me know!

Interesting that the win percentage for all the races and random is over 50%.

Sweet pictures. Funny Random "bump" in the middle (Gold & Platinum).


But how can all matchups starting at a winrate of 50% or even above pure increase in winning percentage? Strange effect.
Nevermind, Bronze not in the graph.

And interesting that Random winning derivate is higher than other Races although at higher level the disadvantage of carved out builds should surmount the advantage of surprise?

And question on a sidenote, why changed the colors between the two graphs? Got fixed

Ouh yeah sorry I totally missed that. Makes sense of course then.
