Overwatch Data Analysis
canada goose outlet woodbury So I back again with another analysis and this time I decided to revisit my previous study with a different question for testing. I already analyzed which stats were important for SR, but I canada goose coats never considered which stats were important for winning games. canada goose outlet woodbury
canada goose outlet black friday So let me explain canada goose uk outlet how this works. I am listing Canada Goose sale the top 3 in game stats for each of the categories. I also have the correlation values for reference so you know if it is strong or weaker relative to the other stats listed. Ana stats are pretty self explanatory in that assists and healing are reasonable to deduce as important to winning and in fact they line up to high canada goose SR players! Yay, score one for Blizzard. canada goose outlet black friday
canada goose outlet london uk However note the final column which shows the difference between win% vs. SR. It looks like SR is too strongly tied to these stats. When we combine this with the win% for Diamond and above players (for my sample set) you will find an abysmal win rate of 46%. canada goose outlet london uk
canada goose outlet real Now we can start to see the problems, what happens if the stat Canada Goose Jackets that leads to winning games is not really getting captured or encouraged by SR gains? Not seen canadian goose jacket on this chart, defensive assists are still important for winning games, but it canada goose outlet is not as important as objective kills. Also not seen is that offensive assists don really seem to have a correlation to winning, so why is it being rewarded so much? My theory is that the SR gains may have been balanced to the old Lucio that had a humongous aura. Back then, the speed was more important to the healing. This new meta calls for a better balance between the two. canada goose outlet real
canada goose uk If we look at the SR v. Win% uk canada goose you will see Objective as canada goose uk black friday something very Canada Goose Online important for winning, but completely ignored by SR. So you spent 3 hours holding the objective and scoring kills to win the game? Welp, that too bad you better hope you left speed on cheap canada goose uk the entire time and canada goose coats on sale that your teammates were killing everything for you. canada goose uk
canada goose outlet store quebec Looking at the negatives, players are penalized in SR for self healing. What appears to be happening is that self healing interferes with your Canada Goose online ability to give out juicy offensive assists, since this stat is so important to SR, there uk canada goose outlet is a penalty. This really makes me sad. canada goose outlet store quebec
canada goose outlet toronto So there canada goose black friday sale is a ton to talk about, but hopefully by now you can read this table and understand what is presented. We see here cheap Canada Goose that Time on Fire is a very strong metric for gaining SR. How do you get fire? A 5 man rez is guaranteed to get you enough canada goose clearance fire to put you over the line and if you can sustain it, it will be beneficial to your SR. Unfortunately the biggest delta between SR and Win% is also this same category. Essentially time on fire doesn correlate strongly to winning. The data suggests that healing and def. assists canada goose clearance sale are what leads to wins. canada goose outlet toronto
canada goose outlet reviews Looking at the negatives, SR canada goose uk shop penalizes Mercy that play the objective and get large self healing numbers. Honestly this one infuriates me. SR is actively encourage Mercy to hide in the corner and wait for rezzes even though the correlation to win% is tied to healing instead. From an outside view, I would rather see the exact opposite happen to encourage more interesting gameplay (but that is just my opinion). canada goose outlet reviews
canada goose victoria parka outlet Looking at the deltas, Time on Fire is strongly tied to SR despite it not contributing to wins. Objective time and self healing are penalized. So now you know why Mercy players are hiding so much. canada goose victoria parka outlet
canada goose outlet price Surprisingly enough, Mercy doesn seem out of balance based on win rate. Unfortunately, the problem lies in the amount of players at high ranks. Based on my sample, there is roughly 30% more high level Mercy then the other support heroes. This wouldn be a problem necessarily, but when you combine it with the wrong stats being prioritized, it easy to get matches with Mercy who have been trained wrong by the system in place. But don fear, that also means there are Mercy who know whats up and are helping their teams win game. Give Mercy players a chance, they can win you games canada goose outlet price
canada goose outlet seattle This is just bad, out of the basic stats I tracked, there was no stat that correlated to gaining SR. Potentially there is a stat like turret kills or players teleported that helps out Symmetras, but my basic stats couldn find anything. Meanwhile there are a few stats that show good correlations to winning like Elims damage and obj. kills. So then what is the SR system doing? canada goose outlet seattle
canada goose outlet shop Symmetra players are penalized SR for getting solo kills final blows and for time spent on fire. These are very strong negative correlations that make me wonder. How in the world can players on fire get penalized??? canada goose outlet shop
canada goose outlet miami What worse is when you look at the deltas. Eliminations, final blows and objective kills were nearly guaranteed to wreck your SR even though it can contribute to winning. One potential answer for this is that high level symmetra play just doesn work as well. But let look at the win rates. canada goose outlet miami
canada goose outlet in toronto So this one Canada Goose Coats On Sale was a little bit interesting, but the good news is that Canada Goose Parka this hero wasn as crazy as the rest of them. Eliminations ended up as important for winning and for SR which is great. Self healing also makes sense for SR gains as ultimates are the only way for him to self heal (shield healing or picking up med packs doesn count). canada goose outlet in toronto
canada goose discount uk Nothing in the negative category, potentially I need to look at more stats, but that was a bit odd. canada goose discount uk
canada goose jacket uk It appears again that canadagoosejacketsalesca despite Zenyatta best efforts to save the point with objective kills, he is not rewarded with SR for doing that. Not shown on the chart, objectives kills had a correlation of.37 which is strong enough to show that it leads to winning. canada goose jacket uk
canada goose outlet store toronto Stats related to winning rarely lined up with stats related to high SR. canada goose outlet store toronto
canada goose outlet paypal Objective kills and objective time almost always were neutral or negative impacts to your SR. canada goose outlet paypal
canada goose outlet website legit Ultimates usually had a strong impact on SR even if it did not really lead to winning. canada goose outlet website legit
canada goose outlet 80 off More research on this is needed for other heroes and with different player lists. canada goose outlet 80 off
canada goose outlet los angeles No seriously, I am done now. Thanks for taking the canada goose store time to read and of course you can ask me any questions about the analysis below. canada goose outlet los angeles
canada goose outlet factory I actually find it quite surprising canada goose factory sale that the correlation to winning SR have such a disparity across these heroes, I wonder if this is just a support hero issue or an issue with Canada Goose Outlet the system at large. My initial assumption about performance based SR would be to align the correlation to SR to match the correlation to win%, not that it would necessarily be a perfect system that way but to tune it to any other standard seems irrational without some buy canada goose jacket cheap seriously intensive AI analysis of gameplay across the board. I need to do more research, but I think what you will find is really good Mercy mixed in with really bad ones. I mean that is always going to be the case, but it might be more varied than buy canada goose jacket it should be canada goose outlet factory.
