OPEN — more choice than on most maps: 16 of 30 brawlers above 50%.

Recommendation

What the rating, star, trust and the tags mean

Strong pick Good pick SolidHow the brawler stands on this map compared to the whole mode (Knockout): Strong pick is the top tenth of all map/brawler rows, Good pick the top quarter, Solid the upper half, Rather not the rest. What is measured is the cautiously computed win rate (Wilson lower bound), the same number the cards are sorted by — not the percentage shown beside it. The thresholds come from the field rather than from fixed percentages: the modes sit at different levels, and in Showdown the number counts trophy gains rather than wins. Not to be confused with the tier list — that ranks a brawler by how many maps of the rotation he is usable on, across all maps together. A Rather not among the recommended eight therefore does not mean “played badly”, but: this map has nothing better to offer.

TrustHow dependable the win rate next to it is, 0–100. Depends purely on the number of games — not on how good the brawler is.

Carry — becomes star player unusually often on this map: he deals the damage and takes the objective. The game runs through him.

Enabler — rarely becomes star player: he clears the way, heals, controls, and others do the scoring. This is no verdict on his strength — how good he is here is the win rate on the card. Measured across 1,620 map/brawler rows, enablers win on average 3.8 points less often than carries, but the star rate explains only 11% of the differences: there are plenty of strong enablers and weak carries. The star says how a brawler wins, not whether.

How these numbers are arrived at

What you see here. The best three-brawler line-up that can be assembled for this one map — computed, not counted. On a single map hardly any line-up has enough games for a measured number of its own, so it is assembled from the individual strengths and the pair effects, then calibrated against real line-ups.

Best · on this map. All 5,799 combinations of this map's 40 best brawlers, scored from their strength here and their pair effects in this mode — the same calculation as the draft helper, only without opponents. How much of it comes through is not guessed but calibrated against 328 real line-ups from a different half of the battles, so the calculation cannot measure itself.

What the calculation cannot do: check itself. Measured against line-ups that actually exist, the projection errs low rather than high — across all modes the top six came out between 4.9 points too high and 9.1 too low, the top ten percent to within a point. For a line-up nobody plays there is no such check, and sometimes there is a reason nobody plays it. The list is therefore cut off at the measured boundary: it shows the best line-up for which any evidence still exists, not the best that can be computed. The calculation does produce higher ones (147 of them on this map) — they sit outside anything ever measured, which is why they are not shown here.

All brawlers on this map

Including the thin ones — the games column tells you how seriously to take a row. The win rate tells you how good a brawler is. The trust score (0–100) tells you how much you can believe it — it depends purely on the number of games. Sorting uses both together: 52% from 75 games can be luck, 51% from 3,000 games cannot.
