Results by game state

13 conditions · compared with the 16 Champions teams
won the first pistol (R1) Denominator: maps. Both bars are observed frequencies over this team's Stage 2 maps, with no model behind them. The white hairline on each track is the field's rate for this condition, 69% across 233 Champions-team maps. The pale band inside each bar is that rate's estimate range: where the true rate most likely sits, given this sample. Does the first pistol decide their map?

When they do 65% 220 rounds
When they don't 40% 200 rounds
True of the field, not a read on them. Break the chain: their strongest round is the one after a win, so the highest-value round to spend utility on is the one you are about to lose anyway.
Difference +25 pts estimate range +16 to +34 pts field 22 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? Yes, +25 pts (+16 to +34 pts). Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is 22 pts and theirs sits +3 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.
lost the previous round Denominator: non-pistol regulation rounds. Both bars are observed frequencies over this team's Stage 2 rounds, with no model behind them.

When they do 40% 200 rounds
When they don't 65% 220 rounds

When they do 39% 111 rounds
When they don't 58% 309 rounds
True of the field, not a read on them. The skid round. If it is low, a two-round run is the moment to take risk; if high, they are hardest to close out and you should bank economy rather than force.
Difference -19 pts estimate range -30 to -9 pts field -14 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? Yes, -19 pts (-30 to -9 pts). Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is -14 pts and theirs sits -5 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.

Structure

Counts of distinct comps and agents grow with maps played, so each team's figure is resampled to a common 18-map exposure before comparison. The sample shown is the team's real number of maps.
