There nonetheless aren’t any 7-3 or worse matchups. It’s fairly much like the opposite chart and an incredibly slim vary of stability to anybody who’s accustomed to all these charts in different video games.
If something, I truly suppose a few of these matchups are actually nearer than the info exhibits. Two of probably the most lopsided matchups within the recreation in line with that chart (reminder: none truly present as lopsided there since nothing is even 7-3) are Jaina vs Geiger and Lum vs Valerie.
Geiger might be the #1 most losingest character in opposition to me personally, so I used to be curious what my very own stats are. When filtering the above desk of professional participant outcomes for simply video games that I personally performed, I discovered that my Jaina vs professional Geigers is 6.7 – 3.3 in Jaina’s favor (in comparison with 3.4 – 6.6 the opposite method round). Admittedly a small pattern dimension there, however I really feel prefer it’s a case the place extra Jaina gamers simply must step it up.
I’ve extra to say about Lum although. He’s in all probability probably the most troublesome character to play nicely. The most important variety of totally different conditions occur when Lum is on the playfield as a result of his random units of things create all types of alternatives to reap the benefits of issues if you know the way, improv, and act quick. It’s no shock that even amongst the highest 20% of gamers, they nonetheless don’t actually play him nicely sufficient.
The chart above lists Lum vs Valerie as 3.7 – 6.3, but if we solely contemplate the matches I personally performed as Lum in opposition to those self same prime gamers, the quantity turns into 6.75 – 3.25 in Lum’s favor. And in contrast to the earlier instance, it’s not a small pattern dimension. I assume that might truly make it probably the most lopsided matchup in your complete recreation in the other way that the chart exhibits, so it’s laborious to know the true reality. It’s additionally fascinating that gamers routinely name out that matchup as very very unhealthy for Lum, but I’ve typically accepted challenges in it, win them, but I haven’t modified anybody’s thoughts apparently.
The underside line is that the above information exhibits 89% of matchups are within the 6-4 to 4-6 vary, with ALL the remaining matchups simply barely worse, and 0% within the 7-3 or worse vary. And a number of the ones which might be barely worse appear more likely to be inside that 6-4 to 4-6 vary too, finally. (Primarily based on my play no less than! Or wait, they’d nonetheless be least shut matchups, simply in the other way? Properly, who is aware of.)
