Quick update: Scanning US Armory

I am currently scanning the US armory so will post the new stats for US realms within the next week with any luck.

As per my usual intent, I will try and find time to do some more detailed analysis such as spec breakdowns, but I have been very busy with work and family lately so no promises.

Cheers,

US TR Stats - 18th May 2008

OK, with the end of the qualifying phase fast approaching I have now rescanned the US TR armoury data. I have only shown the 3v3 chart as the 2v2 and 5v5 is a bit meaningless.

I will re-scan the US and EU armouries as we approach the end of season 3.

US TR class performance as of 18th May 2008



TR Performance Comparison 18th May vs 18th April
The following chart show how the class has changed since the 18th April stats, e.g. if a Class was 100% in April and it is now 150% then it will have seen a 50% gain, if it has gone from 100% to 50% Then it will be a -50% gain.

TR Update - 11th May

Hi all,

Just a quick note to let you know that I have scanned the armory data but at this moment in time I have little faith in the quality of the armory data. There are teams listed with games played this week where characters have not logged in for several weeks, likewise teams with characters with no active profiles, or teams with several hundred games played this week and for the whole season (I assume these are not legit).

I am looking to see if there is a way I can verify the quality of the various players, but if anyone can confirm the activity of the top 10 on TR that might help me narrow down some options. (I could use last logged date for the players but I am not sure if the lack of profile is because the armory is out of date or the character no longer exists)

Cheers
Vhairi

Just a quick update

Just a quick note to say that I plan to rescan the TR soon now the next phase has started, I will also be rescanning the EU realms as s4 fast approaches.

Assuming I get both of those out of the way I will then rescan the US again just prior to season end.

Tournament Realms Data - 18th April 2008

As promised here are the scan results for both US tournament realms, please note that due to the armory restrictions we are limited to the top 5000 in each bracket. Once again I have used Personal Rating as I find this provides a more accurate picture.

As expected due to the small sample size (a maximum of 5k teams per bracket) the data is more spiky than on live, and I have shown the top ratings even though there may only be one team at that rating (e.g. @2.2k+ in 3v3.)

2v2


3v3


5v5

Tournament realms

I see the TR is now available on the armory so it looks like the class breakdown may need to wait while I scan and present the TR data here instead.

I will also use the tournament realm to analyse the class specs as we _know_ they are pvp focussed. ;)

US Stats - April 2008

UPDATE: 9th April 2008
I have adjusted the charts to show 2300+ instead of 2400+ after feedback due to the small sample size at such high ratings.

I finally got round to scanning the US armory so here we go.

US stats for entire armory: 167,534 active* teams and 390,988 active* players using Personal Rating.

*more than 0 games played

I have changed the chart to use a % similar to the data Kalgan posted, with 100% being the ideal (11.1% representation). What is obvious is just how popular druids and warrs are, with druids reaching a rather silly 240% in 2v2 @2300+.

Hope you find these useful :)
