Anon misses the RTS genre (sh.itjust.works)

Pretty much. Blizzard supported the hell out of that game. Tweaked everything until it was perfect. At launch, it was as good as anything else at the time, but it wasn't knife-edge balanced like it became.

Modern Blizzard isn't capable of that anymore, and neither is anyone else. The genre can still innovate and provide perfectly good experiences otherwise, but it will always have this spectre of "not balanced like Starcraft" hanging over it.

I do not remember starcraft being perfectly balanced....

Grandmaster:

Protoss: 57%
Terran: 57%
Zerg: 55.2%

Masters 1:

Protoss: 52.7%.
Terran: 52.5%
Zerg: 51.9%

Masters 2:

Protoss: 51.2
Terran: 51.1
Zerg: 50.9

IDK, looks pretty balanced to me

Maybe because I only observe high level play.

Higher than Grandmaster and Master?
