The Ring: Nerdy Stats

It is officially 12 hours post-launch of The Ring and we have played a total of 7,621 games across 311 users! That's 635 Games an HOUR 😱 Here are some fun nerdy stats that I've collected over the 7k+ games: 1. RANK DISTRIBUTION Most players are currently concentrated in Silver and Gold. The median player sits on the boundary between Gold 2 and Gold 3, placing roughly half of ranked players at Gold 2 or above. Platinum 2 and above represents the top 17%, while Emerald and above represents the top 9%. 2. BAN RATES BY RANK This shows which comps are most banned in each rank. The higher the percentage, the more that comp is banned in that rank. For example, Starfall is banned in 43% of Bronze Games. Water Tank is banned in 73% of Masters game, but was banned 0 times in Bronze. The most banned comps in total thus far: 1. Burgers (21%) 2. Starfall (18%) 3. Holey (13%) 4. Maze (10%) 5. Basketball (7%) 3. COMP SKILL CURVES Perhaps the most interesting of all, these graphs show how scores in each comps compare across ranks. Markers moving further right at higher ranks mean stronger players generally score better. Here's what the labels at the top mean: - Skill signal: Higher = Score increases consistently per rank - Top vs bottom: Higher = Bigger gap between the scores of the top and bottom rated players - Top end: Higher = Scores continue to increase even in the highest ranks - Kickup: The largest relative gap between the lowest and highest ranks, with typical scores rising from 60 to 858. Strong separation continues through Diamond and Master. This shows the highest skill ceiling out of any comp thus far. - Holey: The biggest jump occurs between Bronze and Silver. Gains gradually shrink at higher ranks, indicating the comp is harder to pick up, average to master. - Maze: Scores consistently increase across every rank, alongside the strongest skill signal of any comp shown. - Codebreaker: Most of the improvement occurs between Bronze and Gold, with relatively small gains beyond Gold. *It's worth noting that the stats for the 5 new comps may be skewed as people continue to learn how to play them. --------------------------------------------------------------- What did you think of these stats? Should I post stats like these more often? Let me know :)
