Relying? It is pure facts from the latest WC3 tournaments (more than 1200 matches in total).

bds torched you'r ass dude

To bad this statistics does NOT say whether one race is better than the other, it only tells that some players playing one race won more than players playing an other race. There might just be more noobs playing NE. Maybe you've never heard anyone saying "noob elf".

To sum it up, win/lose ratio is dependent on wish player is playing, thus you can not say anything about wish race is the best based on win/lose ratio statistics.

P.S. Please take a Maths Statistics course and you might understand.

Hehe, maybe you should take that course. This is the overall race statistic for all WC3 matches played. This is pure stats. Yes, we can categorize players as star or non-star and make stats out of that aswell. We already show stats for tournaments for example.

surely there aren't many noobs on the counts (WC3L, NGL, WCG players aren't noobs), maybe some from ZOTAC cups (as stated by Exhibitz), but compared to all the other recorded matches it's pretty insignificant, so your arguments aren't good...
and i don't see where it says that race X is better than race Y, it just shows win/lose ratios, so, as far as im concerned, your post is completely useless... sorry =/

again: keep up the good work bds ; )

Like I said, this is the first total stats page, we can create "top rated" stats aswell, star players, certain tournaments and so on.

does it matter? When elfs won WCG, Game-X etc. it was cause of imba but when statistics show elf is balanced it's always the players, not the race.

lol...ok, let's say he's protecting NE, but from the way I see it, he is merely analyzing the statistics which indicates that NE isn't so imba after all. So if looking at the number sheet and interpreting the outcome means being protective, I can say that you are being protective of other races, but in your case you don't have any support to back up your statement except some results from a 'Korean tournament'

Well, first of all, Korea is home traditionally to strong NE players, just like how Chinas is home to strong HU players, so of course Korean tournaments tend to result in higher % for NE players, just like how in china HU players dominate the scene.

But whatever, let's look at Korean tournaments, not that there are that many
WWW and AWL are about the only Korean tournaments that took place in 2007-2008 (not including Korean regional qualifiers for tickets to some international tournaments)

WWW : all won by Moon, 2nd place has NEVER been NE
so you get to wonder, why couldn't top NE players like Soju and Remind grab 2nd place if NE wins more than other races?

AWL : first season : NE mirror grand final
2nd season : Orc mirror grand final

So NE had as much success as Orc, which you say is the weakest race. Makes sense

Remember, Koreans don't have players like ToD and Sky, but they have Moon, so of course they have higher % for NE, but the big picture tells me that there NE isn't imba after all.

Maybe depending on maps, there are clear advantage/disadvantages, and there are also some MU issues, Orc > UD, UD > NE, etc etc

But it's impossible to lock every MU to be at 50%, obviously there will always be the pattern of Rock-Paper-Scissor no matter how hard Blizzard tries to balance the game, so deal with it, if some race had 65%, 60%, 63% in this statistics, you are welcome to whine, i would too. but there isn't
