If you are interested, here are some stats from this year's TWDT regular season. I only have TWDTD and TWDTJ because of the limitation of the scoreboxes for base. I used the cutoff as the smallest number possible that would eliminate any single game performances. Also note that some scoreboxes were never posted, so my data is missing a few games.
TWDTD:
As to some analysis, I would say that High Templar, Mythril, Kyou, Raspi, and Chuckle have so far had the best dueling seasons. To also put some context into High Templar's success, he went 9-10 in one game and still has managed to have a K : D near 2.0. In his other games, he managed an eye-popping 2.33:1.
It is also important to note that it is hard to value the players independently of their team success. For example, is Top5Squad good because Mythril has been good, or is Mythril's stats really good because Top5Squad has other talented players on it. I'll throw some praise out to Vash, who has been on perhaps the worst non-Emofucks warbird team in Gypsy Humpers, but still manged to put up an impressive 1.44 K : D in 3 games played. Perhaps if he showed up like Raspi, Burnt, Rookie, and Jamal (6 games played, not including forfeits), his team would have won more than 2 games (of course I am missing the stats for one of Gypsy Humpers' wins).
The squad Emofucks was so poorly run that it is hard to criticize players like Kthx, Kassius, steak666, and bleez for poor play. Now, obviously none of them set the world on fire when they did play, but they often did so in unfavorable situations. Hypocrit, Zeebu, EvilDeed, and Thrill had poor regular seasons, but it is clear that warbird is not their primary ship (even though they did play in at least 2 rounds each). Which leaves Bacon (and misled) as carrying the bacon for worst dueling regular season.
TWDTJ:
Sorry for cutting some of the names off, but I'm too lazy to go back and fix it. Hurricane, of course, also put up some very good warbird stats in limited play. It would be interesting to see how good Candy King would have been had Hurricane played in most of their dueling and jav games instead of just a handful. Clearly Underground had a very good (and consistent) year in jav, since Waven, ZIdane, Turban, and Ease all had great records with a decent number of games played. Not in game, Kid Cudi, maketso, and Thrill also had very good seasons for their respective squads. Riverside and Kawrae deserve props for doing well on the worst team, Top5Squad. Although maketso and Eelam's squad Gypsy Humpers had the worst +/- on the season despite their outstanding individual numbers. One last positive remark goes to steak666, who almost averaged a 1:1 on that terrible Emofucks team in 3 games played (which was 3 games not forfeited).
Of course somebody has to do poorly (if anyone is to do great). This year it was Zeebu, PhyRe, M_M God, Gazo, and beam, who all had below a 0.65:1 ratio. I'd also like to call special negative attention to i.d. and sakke for doing poorly on very good teams. There's always next year (maybe...).
