Species Statistics is a mutator found in Unreal Tournament 2003 and Unreal Tournament 2004. It serves as the inverse of a mutator featured in Unreal Championship known as "Competition Mode."
Overview[]
The mutator assigns different attributes to each race, affecting movement, health, damage resistance, and damage infliction.
Note: Favorable attributes in the statistics tables are marked in green, while unfavorable attributes are marked in red.
Unreal Championship[]
By default, Species Statistics are enabled, with each race possessing its own set of advantages and disadvantages. The Competition Mode mutator turns this feature off. Below are the stats per race:

Races were also expanded:
- The Automatons now include the Liandri robots.
- The Humans now encompass the Thunder Crash and Hellions humans, as well as Barktooth and Karag from the ECE Bonus Pack.
- The Skaarj now include both Mekkor and Skrilax from the ECE Bonus Pack.
