The rankAll five numbers are ranks in the field, not values: 77th means
“better than 77% of all brawlers”. It is the only way to compare five axes that live
in completely different ranges — a win rate around 50%, a pick rate around 1%.
The dashed ring is the middle of the field. What was measured is on the right.
A dashed edge with a hollow corner, by contrast, is not a measurement but an estimate —
there is a ≈ in front of the number then.
Win rateHow often he wins — the same number as in the header, from the same battles.
PopularityHow often he is played at all. Says nothing about whether that is wise —
a popular brawler can be a poor pick and the other way round.
BreadthOn how many maps of the rotation he is at the top — the number the
tier list sorts by as well. A narrow brawler with a high win rate is a
safe bet on his two maps and nowhere else; where that is, is in the table below.
This axis always spans all modes.
Counter safetyHis worst duel, not the average: how he fares when the opponent knows the answer.
High means “even at his worst he still wins often”, low means “a single counter-pick costs the round”
— that decides whether you can show him first.
Who beats him is on Who beats whom?
Star rateHow often he becomes star player in won battles — whether he carries the game or rides along.
A support brawler can be very strong and still sit low here.

6 earlier days are left out — below 400 appearances a daily win rate is noise.
One point per day. Both curves scale to their own range; the numbers on the left and right are the values for 08/02 and 09/01.
Picked more often — 0.7% to 1.0% pick rate, up 41 %.

Across the ranks
Win rate per rank tier, across all maps — ranked battles only, the tier comes from the battle itself. The axis runs from Bronze to Masters, one tick per tier: the stretch where this brawler has at least 300 battles per tier; one tier falls below that and drop out. The stretch always fills the full width, three tiers or eight — so when comparing two curves, mind the names on the axis. The curve glows brighter where more was measured — the tiers differ by more than a thousandfold in battles. The faint horizontal line sits at 50 %.
No clear rank trend — from Bronze to Masters the win rate stays practically the same (regression +1.1 points across the whole range).
He plays the same at the bottom as at the top.
Where this brawler works (ranked, All ranks). The numbers still come from before the change on 01.09.2026 — no map has enough battles since for a number of its own. They switch over one by one, as soon as there are.
Who beats Shade and who he gets along with depends on the mode —
and no map sets it here. Both are on Who beats whom?,
and on every map page for that map.
