Arena Class breakdown Link?

Unraveller · 10/15/07, 2:11 PM

I hate myself for posting this, but I can't dig it up on the search engine...

Can someone link or PM me the link for that Arena Class Breakdown data. The horizontal tree diagram showing the class %'s at each rating category?

Thanks in advance, please nuke this thread then.

Wow....WOW! Arena is totally made for hunters.

75% 2v2 teams contain a call named WAR****. 4% contain a Hunter. To give you a rough idea. You will play against a hunter once every 3 weeks on average... Shamans and mages (in 2v2) aren't much better.

Blizzard balances (or fails to balance

) PVP around 5v5 arenas. If you want to make class distribution comparisons you should do so at that level.

I like how at 2400+ the breakdown is 83% druid/warlock 17% druid/warrior, and the other classes don't even have data points.

You can ignore the last data point in 2v2 as it does not have enough teams to be statistically relevant.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the distribution for the EU servers? Is there something comparable for the US servers?

Its about the same. Do a search for Caster on the general forums, data is several weeks old though.

I've also done some of my own analysis, inspired by Vhairi.

Specifically, I was interested in class groupings and spec groups, e.g. do you see War/Pal in 2v2, and if so, what spec are they, and what average rating, and how many of them are there...

Far more information is here, and hopefully will be of interest:
Spec Distribution in High-End Arena / Alcaras' Blog / Subcreation
5v5 Combinations in High-End Arena / Alcaras' Blog / Subcreation
3v3 Combinations in High-End Arenas / Alcaras' Blog / Subcreation
2v2 Combinations in High-End Arena / Alcaras' Blog / Subcreation

For example, from my 2v2 data, the top 2v2 combinations with 2 or more teams, sorted by number of teams, drawn from the top 150 teams for each of the four regions (what I call the 'top 600 worldwide'):

For instance, the first line means there are 59 Dru Resto/War Arms teams out of the top 600 2v2 teams, and they have an average rating of 2399.69.
