Meta Analysis

Underperforms at high rank, dropping 4.1% from Silver to Master — opponents at higher levels better punish this kit's weaknesses. Strongest on Control maps (56.2% avg WR) and weakest on Escort (46.9%) — a 9.3% spread across game modes. Best on Lijiang Tower, Samoa, Nepal — maps characterized by high-ground and chokepoint terrain, where their vertical mobility finds more angles in elevated terrain and open airspace. Struggles most on Havana and Circuit Royal (long sightlines, high-ground, open, aerial, multi-flank maps). Banned far more on Control maps (18.0% avg) than on Push (13.7%).
