• In Random Battles (Update 1.28), Ensk has an acceptably balanced win rate between bases (Top 5 among all maps). However, it also features the fastest battles in the game, averaging 4:45 minutes (its closest competitor, Himmelsdorf, is one full minute longer).
• In Encounter Battles, Ensk performs significantly worse—it ranks as the most unbalanced map in terms of base win rates while still having the fastest battles, averaging 5:04 minutes.
No conclusions for now. We’ll revisit this data in 1.5 months to analyze the performance of the expanded Ensk (source).
48% vs 51% is “acceptably balanced”? No wonder WoT’s overall balancing is so bad.
It is acceptably balanced – 48% vs 51% means that only 3% of battles are won due to one side being stronger. For encounter it’s much worse: 44% vs 55% means that a whopping 11% of battles are won by the south spawn regardless of your plays, skills, etc. Now THAT is a lot
and you probably think 3″ is huge…
