This is not correct. The segments are split amongst survey respondents.
Among players with 0 battles played, there was 43% opinion against adding Submarines to our game. The negative opinion dropped sharply with as little as 1-5 battles played as those players had a 23% opinion against adding Submarines. It dropped even lower amongst those who'd played 6-25 battles with only 11%.
Familiarity with the class through direct play experience had a powerful interaction with player perception.
