How many leagues has Protoss been at or near 40% of GM?

1?

@llllllllllll-12402

It is? If you can at least be consistent enough to say that Protoss deserves to not have won a tournament in the past several years due to player skill, then you’re at least salvageable.

??

@Sentry-2358

im just stating to you that the top pro players (balance council) is stating that there is/was something wrong with that.

@llllllllllll-12402

Splitting MMR then yourself that MMR gap narrowed? Yeah. That’s pretty freaking dumb. How could A not result in B?

You still dont understand it, do you? Its not that the mmr gap narrowed. Thats obvious. Its that the mmr gap is nearly 0 which is very weird, indeed.

I feel like you just dont want to understand things so you dont have to deal with what it actually means.

@llllllllllll-12402

They don’t. Even if they had, you believed they were more casual for years without a shred of evidence. You still know that Terran has more activity and that it’s spread more or less evenly throughout the leagues and yet you ignore because it hurts your little FEEWINGS

They do play less, see:

@Sentry-2358

And by that i mean the activity in bronze/silver/gold and so on. Terrans in silver play less than terrans and gold and so on (But they play the same amount as the other races within same league).

Casual players play less than the less casual players…who would have thought. Not bourne i guess.

@llllllllllll-12402

Yes. And when you compare Bronze Terran players to Bronze Protoss players? Silver to Silver?

@Sentry-2358

you need to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges. Not apples to oranges.

@Sentry-2358

Thats why you should compare within the same race.

@Sentry-2358

But knowing you, you will come up with an insane amount of mental gymnastics why its unfair to compare it to zerg and why its reasonable to compare it to protoss

Hehe, i dont need to write things. I can just quote things that ive written before. I knew you would either not grasp what im writing or not read what i wrote.

But to answer your question: The spending quotient is the same (or a bit above for protoss) and the apm is pretty close but rather below terrans apm.

Which makes total sense. I think the spending quotient is pretty much an okayish metric since you need to spend your money. ofc for protoss its a bit lopsided since they have warpin cycles but their spending quotient is the same as terrans (or a bit above) and below zergs.

@llllllllllll-12402

Terran players are not superior, on average, in any measurable way.

Exactly. Plus they have the most amount of casual players. And this is why its not surprising they have the least avg mmr.

Zerg has the least amount of casual players. And this is why its not surprising they have the most avg mmr.

We cannot assume same mmr behaviour by 3 completly different races, while 1 race is literally us and 2 races are alien races and 1 alien race has “I AM VERY DIFFERENT” written across the face. I think everyone with at least a handful of braincells would imagine the following race distribution: human>alien that are kinda human>bugs that look and play completly different than anything seen before.

And we see exactly this distribution.

Bonus stat, just because i think you are funny bourne:
Last years gm stats from sc2replaystats.

Race	APM Avg	Spending Quotient Avg
T	257	112
P	256	110
Z	304	117

And for silver:

Race	APM Avg	Spending Quotient Avg
T	67	75
P	65	79
Z	93	77

Im waiting for bourne to tell me that silver shouldnt be 45% terran despite them not performing better than any other race (actually they perform rather worse; LOL)

inb4 bourne: silver protoss have 3 percent less apm than terran reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee (and then we ignore zerg because of…reasons and we ignore spending quotient for reasons)
