Playing around with harmonic means in the #KLeague

Here, the darker green shows players who are both involved in attack & defense and also have a good balance between the two phases, not being exclusively involved in just one

Incheon's Kim Bo-sub has the largest harmonic mean

Harmonic means focus on both the magnitude of two numbers and also the balance between their levels.

Players involved almost exclusively in attack or defense will have lower numbers regardless of the level of their main contribution, because they don't have balance

Also something I notice:

mathematically speaking, having attacking contributions being lower on avg than defensive contributions probably bias attack-minded players who are decent in defense over defense-minded players who are decent in attack.

Something I'm working on 😅

For the curious:
