This week we’d like to ask what you think of the rival system we introduced. Do you ever check on how your rival is doing? Does it motivate you to play more? How do you think we could improve the rival system?

Top 5 players for this week are:

Name Games FlubZ 117 Fate 109 SpaceMarine 109 iMarine 101 Koshkii 92

Statistics

This week we’re taking a look at the fastest upgrade timings. How fast can a Terran research Stim? How quickly can a Protoss Chrono out Psi Storm? Do Zergs ever rush to Chitinous Plating? However, surprisingly most of the fastest research times were from Gold league players!

We’re thinking a more interesting way to look at this would be to check the average completion time of an upgrade for a specific match-up, per league. For an example, we could look specifically at the average upgrade times of Stimpack in TvZ. Let us know what upgrade and what matchup you would like to see this statistic for next week!

Hero Units

By request, this week we’ve chosen the Raven as the Hero Unit — with 28 kills! In this brutal TvT, Pastorn was often down by as much as 80 supply, but managed to hold on for a long time with the power of Ravens, landing countless devastating seeker missiles, like this one:
