You didn't answer ^^

Where you also in positive during the 2 weeks on solo this map ? Because that what matter, being your first map may not be erase the traumatic experience of being 0.5 KD over 30 games. First though matter a lot

No offense, but are you low ELO ?

I'm asking the question because the system is made a way every new map will be hated by low ELO. Why ? Because you test new map on a specific queue that doesnt share MMR with no other queue, which mean statistically you will play against player better than you, so you will loose with a horrible KD and start to hate the map. 2 week later you will finally have an MMR close to your real MMR, but the hurt will be done (and the queue will disappear), it will be put in your subconscious that you will hate the map.

Can I ask you your ELO and the winrate you had on the specific mapqueue ?

In proplay they have either a sova or a raze to counter it

Hard to know, T2 were never an objective for GC teams, so they never really tryharded it

Interesting idea, but that should be coupled with the fact they can't be demoted for the rest of the year.

But the problem with that is that we dont know yet if GC team have the level of T2 yet, if they get rollstomped for one full year this mightbe a problem. Before doing that we need to gather more data about GC teams in T2, TLBR playing in T2 Brasil in 1 weeks will help us to have a precise idea of how the GC team are (MIBR could also give us an idea but lets be honnest, they just come back from GCC, they will be burnt if they take the tournament too seriously)

Thanks it's a pleasure ^-^

2 game played, 0 win ^-^

Hmm ?

fly

They are only like 100 game, so nothing seems to be really relevant, but I think I will still talk about it when I finish the other (And maybe when I can gather data of split 3)

How do you "Win upper final" in a single elim ? They are no Upper final, just a grandfinal

Sage isn't a Sentinel, I rather put her in initiator or controller

She and Iso are so weird, that the only 2 agents that have no dive, no flash, no regen, no sent spell, no controller spell, and they are fucking TOP 3 on overall map (Clove completing the top 3 is also hilarious). Sage is top 1, 58,5% NMWR on 318, pval 0.2, (So PPV 99.8%), her data are absolutely significant, she is an absolute nonsense and will be absolutely busted after an up.

I'm a statistician more than an analyst, so maybe I should really study how Sage play to have a so good result... Maybe one of her strength is being an absolute counter to the postplant meta. Then, I think she usually replaces an initiator flasher, and flasher are bad (Breach 45%, Kayo 48%, Gekko and Skye are ok but replace usually the recon, so the spot is still open for her)

I have so many things to say about her, she was my main, and she is still my most played agent, and I'm still cluless on how to analyze her, it's a subject I will HAVE to work on, because, Sage is still not classed in the class meta because, well... I can't consider her as a Sentinel, not possible, she was never played as such, doesn't have the spell, and it makes no sense to put her in, I'm still considering putting her in controller, maybe even in Initiator if I realize her wall is most used to take space aggressively. If she is already a hidden OP, and she is about to receive an up, she will be picked, I can't continue class her in her own special role (Named 7)

I can't wait to see the up, this will probably help me to take a decision.

Please if you have any analyze about her tell me. (Gonna be usefull for a future video)

I made a full video that explain the concept of archetype : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGHldAjmDes (And the start of the video make a full summup of what are the archetype

In short term : "Composition archetype" is the roles of your archetype.

• In the class nomenclature, it counts how many duelist, initiator, sentinel, controller you have in your composition. Every composition have at least 1 1 initiator and 1 controller, and usually 1 duelist, so the name of the archetype is the 1st letter of the 2 remaining class agent
• In the spell nomenclature, it asks if you have one diver, one flasher, one recon, one sentinel, one controller, if one lack, the archetype is named 0-X (X being the first letter of the spell that missing) so "0S" is 0-sentinel archetype, "classical", are composition where one specific agent do one specific spell, "hybrid" are composition that have an agent that do 2 things and so it opens a spot for a remaining agent.

I s a little bit more clear ? ^-^

Really good question

• 1/ it's NonMirror Winrate and not only Win Rate
• 2/ the sample is Tier 1 and Tier 2, split 2 (I consider make Split 1 too to have a better samplesize, but the meta kinda shifted with Viper nerf, so I prefered not to do it), since I have both Split 1 and 2 I have a samplesize big enough to have something intresting. I have 5994 composition to analysis overall, and 806 on Bind only.
• 3/ If thats not enough, I calculate the P-value to see if my data are significant or if I need to just stay suspicious but not be sure, (And what I call the polarised P-value, it’s just 1-pval or pval-1, so in a blink of an eye you can see if the data the percent of chance the NMWR is it’s because of noise or not)

Does it answer to your question or do you need more precision ^^ ?

48,5% Non MIrror Winrate, not great :/

It's a good point, but I want to point out that every time a team coming for G2 part of the bracket (top winner bracket) played a team coming from SR part or the bracket (bot of winner bracket), the team coming from G2 bracket stomped team coming from SR. Maybe SR has not been tested Yet

Again vlr, you cant read so I read my text, my nose is unblocked but for unknow reason I speak too fast on this video, so maybe it will be less understable :

tldw ;

• Most used Archetype is 0 Sentinel archetype and is the best archetype based on spell.
• Best Archetype based on class is 1 Duelist, 2 controller, 2 initiator
• Beside Archetype that invovle Sage, or Doble Sentinel Archetype, every other archetype based on class seems bad.
• The main 5 picks are Gekko, Raze, Brim, Viper, Skye
• Gekko is OP, the other 4 are good but replaçable
• Keep a huge look to Clove, Sage and Astra that may be the surprise on 2025
• Dont Play Chamber.

Tell me what map that was played on Split 2 you want me to talk about

Errrrrm ? Ok ?

Sure >.>

You didn't liked it ? :c

Ai can create new style if people have enough imagination with prompt (And some people will continue drawing for pleasure), exactly the same artist take inspiration from other artist

It's inspired by what artist has done, exactly like the artists.

With Lora you can even replicate the style of a precise artist

Do you know how artist learn art ? By looking at other artist, exactly like AI. It's like that, art is always inspired by the previous iterations

French say IA instead of AI >.>

I agree with that, sure he could make sthings nobody can, but he has also a lot of weakness (His attack phase), I should focus making data on season 2, but i'm not that sure that he was so high in NMWR

More the AI replace us, less we have to work, more we can play Val.

Also, before, artist and scenarist worked hand in hand to create banger like Asterix or Tintin and shared money. Now scenarist have to pay artist to create. The day AI fit to create comic, scenarist that have no skill in drawing will be able to create banger.

Artist whining about AI are just gatekeeping creation, because they are afraid of losing their job, that understandable, but they are not fightting IA to make the world better, they are doing it to protect their job and not care if that make world worse.

Being good or bad is relative, none is trash

Napoleon was too greedy and lose his empire being still alive, probably bottom of the list.

He is a better minister of education than a general.

"Stupid to play against" may be one of the defiition of gamebreaking to me.

That should be one of the mostused data you check whern release a new agent

This patch is also high in my ranking, I should also make a video about what is a "sane agent"

Sometimes I just feel that KCX day is the "French pride" day

I have no idea why did they release Reyna like that...

True about the agent, not really true about every other things

This patch was temporary 5.07 is forever

Last time viable agent was realease, good sovenir

To me, the patch 5.07 was the worst patch ever and literally destroyed the balance of the flasher role, as usual instead of making a big allat text, here is the reading

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLTG0jumoJQ

tldr ; They made soloQ agent even more soloQ, and proplay agent even more proplay for the sake of "Identity"

I admit Texas team doesn't look that well, 200T might be a disappointing

Exactly, a guys with 100% 0% brain may go immo, while with the contrary you will just miss people showing you their back

Depends of the rule, if you have to plant the spike you will need a smoker and probably a recon, if it's a more like TDM better go on a Ini-flasher and a diver (Neon+Breach for exemple)

Clove is really strong but that just because of the passive.
Harbor need a rework, no agent should have only smoke are their main spells
DL need to have passive info
Brim need any spell that come back after kill or time
Skye need her flash to come back after time (bujt maybe longuer time)
Iso need a rework he is not sane for the game and he will become new Neon if up
Viper is a complex situation, my belief is that in the future, every comp will need 2 controller, she is the queen of doble controller and be at the risk of 100% play if up, BUT she feel miserable to play and need an up, but up her mean she may overtake the proplay, so she need an up but other smoker will need too (Astra already have)

Remove all her up. Retire her stun and replace it by a collective Z-Axis spell

No trade mean only the 2 duel isnt "fair". The 1st duel stay fair, and the only difference is that he can be creative on the angle he take (Like every agent that can go on Z axis)

Yay by Far, he got even a "crossing the desert" arc, if he perf this year he will have shonen life

ME !

In fact Chamber Meta was the least stale meta, on this meta everything was possible, on Haven you literally have composition Viper-Skye fighting against Jett-Sova and Raze-Fade

Neon meta is more fun to watch that chamber. But OP Chamber is x10000000000 more sane for the game than Neon OP

So I disagree with everything you say, but I'm agree with your conclusion : I prefer Chamber Meta than neon Meta.

I think Cypher is a one way trip, he can live for 3 mounth maximum, then get antistrat and just disapear from the meta (With unbreakable trap, either it's really unbreakable and will be nerf, or it's breakable and he will become useless. I have 0 trust on Cypher on long term (And this agent is really unhealthy for the game)

We can have both 2 init and 2 ctrl, to me it's the futur of Valorant, Sentinel are weak.

They are 4 main spell-archetype :

• Classical-I 47% PR (1 agent for each role with an Init-flash) NMWR : 48%
• 0-Flash 14% PR : NMWR 55%
• 0-Sentinel 14% PR : NMWR 54%
• Hybrid-C 9% PR (4 agent for each spell + 1 Sentinel) : NMWR 47%

And if I look at the data of classification based on class :
The 2 main archetype are with a Sentinel and they are both in negative
Best archetype seems to be IC (1 Duel 2Ctrl 2Init), based on TMV video I would be surprise if KJ become useless because she was picked for her ult that allow her to clear the site, but since nobody defend on site she becomes useless, and Cypher is to easy to antistrat

Anal = Anal
Is = Is
T = True

Val anal is T ?
T like True ?
