Only 33% of players reached Fujin. Is that a lot? If you take a sample of all those who bought the game, this figure will be several times smaller, since many do not play actively, many left the game without reaching Fujin.
Tekken 7 had similar figures by the end of its life. There, Fujin could be reached in a similar way with only 40% of victories
However, as usual, NotQuiteFactual's rank distribution data is still flawed in multiple ways.
Still interesting but must be taken with a grain of salt.
Well, if you can bring "less flawed" data from somewhere, myself and others are all ears.
Otherwise, this is the most accurate info we have.
I really like that the numbers only include very recent ranked games ignoring inactive players or private and quick matches.
sure, I agree. given that we don't have much else to go by it's interesting but there are several reasons as to why this data is misleading.
first of all, it only counts people who played ranked during a period of two weeks, not all players of tekken 8. that in itself doesn't mean that fujin is now the most common rank. more accurately this would mean something like: fujin players were the most dedicated ranked players.
secondly, NotQuiteFactual only counts highest rank RECORDED per player, not overall highest rank achieved. Tekken god players playing on their secondary blue rank characters are counted as blue players, not tekken god players.
He explained this in one of his earlier posts in response to a comment, saying
(QUOTE)
"I only count the highest rank character a player played on during the sample.
If you have multiple Fujin characters then you only count as a single Fujin player.
HOWEVER, since this is based off of replays, if you have multiple Fujin characters but you only played your Mighty Ruler alt character on the day when I gathered this data then you would be considered a mighty ruler."

At this point I blame him for not not explaining it properly right away. I still see lots of people getting this wrong when reading the comments on his posts.
back when tekkenstats.gg was still active I compared their stats to NotQuiteFactual's latest post and the difference in fujin ranks was about +8% higher in the data of NotQuiteFactual
I know about that part, and it is indeed an issue, but again, we don't have anything else to go by, so by what we do have, Fujin is the most populated rank.
Forgot to mention one more interesting point. Given that he only collects highest rank recorded, it means that everyone who manages to reach Fujin and then demotes back to purple ranks again, is still counted as Fujin as long as they are using the same character
Points to consider:
- I believe the majority who reach Fujin are players who at least played one or more previous Tekken titles.
- The data doesn't specify anything about how many scrubs use multiple characters. I see many scrubs reach Tekken God who whoop the floor and go fast track through Blue Ranks.
Dragunov suffers from success.
If you notice, he's extremely popular, and now, pretty much all popular characters have low winrates.
In some regions, such as Asia, he is the most popular character, overtaking Jin and King, who tend to be the most popular overall.
His popularity coupled with his high tournament success show that he is very strong.
