Season 2 So Far

The round of 64 has finished and all 32 games have been played, as always there have been upsets and predictions have come true, but one welcomed difference this season is the race distribution.

As the ro64 started we saw a lot more Terran and a big drop in the number of Protoss with Zerg players sitting at a similar place to last season. The difference this time is the number of Zerg to make it through the first round.

Protoss are the least represented race in the round of 32 and Terran are only just above Zerg, it seems Zerg definitely had the best win to loss ratio this round.

The exciting thing about this is the later rounds will hopefully be more split amongst the races are we may experience some great mirror matches from Zerg as well as the other more common matchups.

It's hard to say whether this change has occurred as a direct result of patch 1.1.2, whether it's a case of Zerg becoming more powerful or just Terran and Protoss players not being able to adapt to their racial changes but it will be interesting to see what the future brings.

Round of 32
