Class representation in arenas

[Cronocious]

In this particular chart, a value of 100% means the class is represented as we'd expect, a value over 100% means the class is represented that much more often than we'd expect, a value below 100% means they're represented less than we'd want (obviously this chart doesn't include a spec breakdown in any way).


one other detail regarding the chart, this one is set at 2200+ rating.

2v2 3v3 5v5
Druid 276.0% 184.0% 80.5%
Hunter 43.0% 50.2% 43.0%
Mage 8.7% 96.0% 96.0%
Paladin 19.7% 29.5% 147.4%

Yeah lol, of the 276% druids in 2v2 @ 2200+ rating, I doubt more than 3 druids are feral

lol @ mages in 2v2

 

[Alron]

Am I misunderstanding this or are these percentages from comparing actual numbers with Blizzard's "budget" for the amount of each class in the Arena.

If so, these numbers don't mean anything, since we don't know what Blizzard's expectations are. They might expect hordes of mages playing arena, and no druids to do so. These numbers may only be good for showing how clueless Blizzard are?

I think the budget numbers are as follows:

1 / 9th (as there are 9 classes), times X for average amount of players in a team (2.4 for 2v2 or something).
