Today I was looking at the table of StarCraft 2 races played by league, and noticed a couple of interesting trends regarding the different races:
- Random players seem to virtually disappear at the higher leagues, reflecting the generally-accepted difficulty of playing all three races well.
- Terran percentages seem to dip in the middle leagues, rising at the higher and lower leagues; this probably reflects the current perceived “over-powered” nature of this race.
- Zerg percentages seem to peak in the middle leagues; it seems like a hard race to play, both at very easy and very difficult levels.
- Protoss player percentages are nearly identical across all leagues, rising just a tad in grandmaster; perhaps it is currently the most balanced race?
Makes me glad to be a Protoss player!
