Meta Analysis

Moderately skill-expressive: 2.1% win rate gain from Silver to Master, suggesting room to grow. Strongest on Escort maps (51.9% avg WR) and weakest on Flashpoint (40.8%) — a 11.1% spread across game modes. Best on Havana, Junkertown, Kings Row — maps characterized by high-ground and sightlines terrain, where their vertical mobility finds more angles in elevated terrain and open airspace.

Banned in 28.3% of Grandmaster games vs 7.6% in Silver — feared specifically by high-skill players, despite a modest 47.1% Master win rate.
