Limitations

Read this before citing any number here. Being explicit about limits is part of the product.

Model calibration

The current advanced models (expected duel probability, round win probability, and the value-added metrics built on them) are interpretable baselines. Their coefficients are sanity-calibrated on a synthetic corpus, not fitted on production match data. They are labeled baseline throughout and their confidence is capped accordingly. Directional comparisons within a game are meaningful; absolute values will shift once the models are refit on real data. Every model's calibration status is on its model card.

Sample size & qualification

Percentiles are shown only when a subject meets the metric's minimum sample within the selected window and peer group; below that, the raw value is shown without a rank rather than implying a precision the data doesn't support. Sample sizes accompany every ranked value.

Coverage

Advanced metrics require event-level telemetry, which exists only for matches with a parsed replay/demo or an equivalent source. Matches with official basic data only show conventional statistics. Coverage is labeled on every match, tournament, and player page, and the coverage & sources page summarizes it per game.

Official vs. derived

Official basic statistics and model-derived advanced statistics are never mixed silently. Each value carries a provenance label; the provenance page explains the labels and the source-authority order used when sources disagree.

Preview data

While in preview, the site is populated with synthetic data — fictional teams and players — to demonstrate the analytical tools. Synthetic records are marked, excluded from search indexing, and will be removed before production coverage begins. Nothing synthetic represents a real competitor or event.
