How the two are built

Agent roles and six team stats. 6 of the fingerprint's dimensions
same role mix Their most-used lineups have the same numbers of duelists, initiators, controllers and sentinels.
Dimension TL FUT Gap Reading Sample
Fewer wins by defuse 32% 38% -6 Same 148 defence round wins
Opening kills spread 34% 35% -1 Same 27 maps
Top fragger takes more 24% 23% +1 Not settled 27 maps
Kills spread evenly 20.0 20.1 -0.1 Same 27 maps
Lower headshot % 30% 30% -1 Same 27 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.
