MEGA THREAD (ALLAT)
went into every teams map pool (excluding china) to compare them to help with my pick ems, i decided this by the winrate, amount of times played, and who they beat (along with a bit of eye test) thought id share :)
The tiers and what they mean are as follows:
S (would almost certainly beat any team)
A (Consistently beating or has beaten great teams)
B (Solid Coinflip map if playing a team on their skill level)
C (Weak point in the map pool would probably lose unless playing a team on their skill level)
D (would almost certainly lose)
as for pistols its self explanatory i decide to remove some games from the stats because i didn't feel like it would be an accurate way to judge them.
(an example being talon playoff games after secret because they admitted to basically throwing and giving up)
