Hello there, for a long time already I have had the feeling that I dislike playing with german/french and would rather play with eastern european players in matches. I don’t know why. I am Austrian myself, so I speak german as my mother tongue, but in dota I obviously only speak english.
So I looked at the data now, I filtered the winrate by region per patch, when I played at least 20 matches in both regions, and this is the result:

Patch EUW Matches EUE Matches EUW WR EUE WR
7.34 116 69 50,0% 56,5%
7.32 77 54 49,4% 38,9%
7.30 49 50 57,1% 40,0%
7.26 122 56 48,4% 58,9%
7.07 63 36 46,0% 41,7%
7.06 99 86 45,5% 65,1%
7.01 55 22 43,6% 63,6%
6.88 204 75 53,9% 70,7%
Average 74 40 47,7% 51,3%
Lifetime 2584 1054 51,6% 53,8%

So, since 6.88, in the patches where I played a significant amount of games on both servers, I average a 47.7% winrate on EUW and 51.3% winrate on EUE.
And if we look at the lifetime stats, I also maintain a higher winrate on EUE than on EUW.

I wonder why that is? Is there a reason for this, or is it just random?
I feel like I am a player that prefers playing aggressive and would much rather commit to fights than playing passively. Could that be the reason why I win more games on EUE?

How is this for you guys? Do you feel you are an aggressive player? Is your WR in EUE higher than EUW?
