Community-driven Matchup Chart

[a2c]

When discussing matchups, you'll hear differeng views from very opinionated people, so why not poll everyone to see what everyone thinks?

 

Feel free to elaborate on your views on particular matchups, or discuss why the general opinion should change.

Remember, consider ONLY high-level play, ie. Diamond, not a general level of play. Otherwise, relatively low skill floor classes, like Summoner, will be rated stronger than they should be, and relatively high skill floor classes, like Kung Fu Master, will be rated weaker.

 

Disclaimer: Because of the open nature of the polls, the resulting matchup chart may not necessarily be accurate, so serious decisions should not be made based upon these results. They'll (attempt to) merely represent the general opinion of the community.

 

So finally, here are the polls. They're separated by class to avoid having a ridiculous 42-item survey.

 

Assassin Matchups

Blade Dancer Matchups

Blade Master Matchups

Destroyer Matchups

Force Master Matchups

Kung Fu Master Matchups

Summoner Matchups

 

Here's the overall matchup chart

This is an excellent idea. Thank you for doing this, @a2c. This should help people see what the favorable matchups are, and if they're losing to favorable matchups, they need to do some research.

It's a little disappointing how little traction it's been getting.

I am KFM...

sin>fm>cat>lsm>dm>bm>kfm

[Valiant]

What I do about that chart, That seem so that every destroyer having trouble against Assassin, KFM and BD while on other hand BD, KFM, Assassin prefer to go against destroyer.

 

Saying Destroyer op and spintowin -.-

You didn't need 42 questions. Half of these are duplicates; for example, you have KFM vs. Summoner and Summoner vs. KFM. You only need 21. Will be quite a laugh to see how identical questions vary, though.

You don't get it ?

It not duplicates lol, He take the vote from every class point of view.

Like you go to destroyer link if you destroyer and vote but if you summoner you go to summoner page and vote

[Diradem]

I'm not quite sure why you did not include class vs class in your survey, as that is still a form of matchup that would vary based on class. e.g., a sin vs sin might be considered more difficult than a summoner vs summoner.

[a2c]

Because they're literally completely even matchups.

[OddFinrir]

There are some people who are voting for summoner to make them seem more OP. Hehe...

[dragoaskani]

of course its not getting much traction. Its not a valid metric but just a bunch of peoples feelings on the matchup. While that can be a okaymetric by itself, I myself would prefer hard numbers. Which we probably will never get unless NCSOFT releases arena statistics.

It's better to ask high elo players (high platinum/diamond) 

Because lower elo players tend to complain about things because they don't understand them rather than them being unfair.

Couldn't you remove a line of votes if the overall sum is too high or low to help it be more realistic?
