How the two are built

Agent roles and six team stats. 6 of the fingerprint's dimensions

different role mix Their most-used lineups have different numbers of duelists, initiators, controllers or sentinels.

Dimension	NS	EDG	Gap	Reading	Sample
More wins by defuse	35%	28%	+7	Not settled	132 defence round wins
Opening kills spread	26%	37%	-11	Different	22 maps

Fewer assists per 100 kills	40.5	44.5	-4.0	Not settled	22 maps
“Not settled” means this sample does not separate the two values. The sample column is the smaller of the two teams' samples, in the unit that dimension counts, because a comparison is only as strong as its thinner side. These dimensions are not all independent: the structure ones restate how rigid a lineup is from different angles and move together, so read them as one family rather than as separate agreements.
