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 67% 12 maps
When they don't 6 of 10 maps
Difference +7 pts estimate range -29 to +41 pts field 19 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The +7 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -29 to +41 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 8 of 12 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.
won the second pistol (R13) 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, 74% across 210 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 second pistol decide their map?
When they do 75% 12 maps
When they don't 5 of 10 maps
Difference +25 pts estimate range -14 to +56 pts field 28 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The +25 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -14 to +56 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 9 of 12 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.
won BOTH pistols 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, 78% across 129 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. When they take both pistols, do they close it out?
When they do 4 of 7 maps
When they don't 67% 15 maps
Difference -10 pts estimate range -46 to +27 pts field 26 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The -10 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -46 to +27 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 4 of 7 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.
won NEITHER pistol 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, 36% across 101 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. Can they win a map after losing both pistols? whole field does this
When they do 1 of 5 maps
When they don't 76% 17 maps
True of the field, not a read on them. This is their resilience floor — how often they still win after losing both openers. A high number here means pistol prep alone will not beat them.
Difference -56 pts estimate range -78 to -8 pts field -33 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The -56 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -78 to -8 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is -33 pts and theirs sits -24 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.
led at half-time 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, 84% across 209 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. Do they hold a half-time lead? whole field does this
When they do 10 of 11 maps
When they don't 4 of 11 maps
True of the field, not a read on them. They convert leads. The prep target is the FIRST half, not the comeback; a 6-6 half is already a win for you.
Difference +55 pts estimate range +14 to +77 pts field 48 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The +55 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of +14 to +77 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is 48 pts and theirs sits +7 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.
reached half-time tied 6-6 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, 58% across 59 Champions-team maps.

trailed at half-time 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, 28% across 147 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. Can they come back from a half-time deficit?

What that means
Does it change their result? The -41 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -69 to +0 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 3 of 8 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.
playing their OWN map pick 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, 63% across 175 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. Is their own pick actually their advantage?

What that means
Does it change their result? The +5 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -32 to +39 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 6 of 9 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.

Difference -13 pts estimate range -48 to +23 pts field -2 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The -13 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -48 to +23 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 5 of 9 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.

The white hairline on each track is the field's rate for this condition, 56% across 66 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. How do they handle the map neither side chose?
When they do 3 of 4 maps

Difference +14 pts estimate range -35 to +44 pts field -5 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? The +14 pts gap sits inside an estimate range of -35 to +44 pts: real or noise, this sample cannot say. Is it a read on them? Not answerable yet: one of the two arms is 3 of 4 maps, too thin to carry a verdict.

When they do 64% 212 rounds
When they don't 41% 190 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 +24 pts estimate range +14 to +33 pts field 22 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? Yes, +24 pts (+14 to +33 pts). Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is 22 pts and theirs sits +2 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.

When they do 41% 190 rounds
When they don't 64% 212 rounds

Difference -24 pts estimate range -33 to -14 pts field -22 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? Yes, -24 pts (-33 to -14 pts). Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is -22 pts and theirs sits -2 against it, so this is the game speaking about every team at once.

When they do 37% 104 rounds
When they don't 59% 298 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 -23 pts estimate range -32 to -11 pts field -14 pts
What that means
Does it change their result? Yes, -23 pts (-32 to -11 pts). Is it a read on them? No. The field lift is -14 pts and theirs sits -8 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.

No per-map decomposition for this one. Its season value is not a sum over maps: splitting it would produce rows that do not add back up to the number above, so none are shown. What the number is built from is below instead.
