we're saying goodbye to PARIVISION, but hello to a project i've had on the backburner for a while - map dashboards it features some stats ive developed: the map win probability chart, xR, EEK and, as a little treat, something new - impact rounds (name wip), number of rounds in which according to my round swing calculation a player had over a 25% impact on the round being won it should tell you everything that happened in a given map at a glance - here we see that PARI had a big lead and despite shaky stuff from legacy, dumau and latto were enough to pull the comeback over the finish line. looking for feedback! wont post these for every map (maybe for the playoffs), but let me know if you even like this or not

CHASING HISTORY - UPDATE #3 today, karrigan got 27 kills and was economically expected to get 34.5 in 69 rounds of play. his differential per 24 rounds for today was -2.61, which lowered his average for the season down two ticks to -2.26 he remains third.
CHASING HISTORY - UPDATE #2 today, karrigan got 18 kills and was economically expected to get 27.6 frags in 47 rounds of play. his differential per 24 rounds for today was -4.90 this means he has jumped Snappi from 2024 season 1 and is now the 3rd worst LAN firepower player since 2016

at Cologne we had 140 first halves, 33 ended 10-2/11-1/12-0, for a 23.6% percentage prior to Cologne this year, only 16.5% of first halves ended this lopsidedly - a 40% increase btrams stats bureau, confirming vibes since 2024
full vibes, no facts.. but it feels like there is a disproportionate amount of landslide halves at the major

okay this seems impossible but last night on ancient in the second half of regulation, karrigan damaged an opponent 5 TIMES IN 12 ROUNDS 6.8 ADR
karrigan in rounds 13-24 this major: 0-10 0-7 2-9 2-10 4-36, for a cool 0.09 KPR and a 0.11 K/D

whee the Mongolz spent almost 2/3rds of that mirage map against B8 being 75% favorites, they had 7 separate stints at 95% or above, yet in the meantime let their opponents reach 87.7% in OT calmest MongolZ close out

parivision might just be very tired boys (xielo especially, here he is top of the table again in a 10-2)
parivision pound for pound worst vibes i've ever seen this was at 5-7 down at the half btw (and with xielo going 15-8)

in stage 3, karrigan will not only compete to get into the major playoffs - he's also looking to avoid being among the worst individual seasons of all time. excluding the online era, his performance in the first half of 2026 ranks the fourth worst of all time when looking at the difference between economically expected kills and his actual kills - he needs to at least be serviceable to climb up the ranks

sorry for misinforming you guys, 45 of those rounds he had a better gun (presumably AWP) equipped yet i still counted it as a five-seven round thats stupid of me, i really am sorry calculated K-EEK only for rounds where people had five-sevens and thankfully ropz still isn't top 1, otherwise that would have been really embarassing for me.

BONUS FURIA FACT: molodoy is the worst Five-SeveN player this year. he should probably stop buying that weapon. he's 3-48 with it equipped and has a -19% average swing in the rounds he has it.

the 'golz are also the worst team in the major at winning anti-forces (67%) and winning forces (28%) this cost them against BB - look at rounds that ended in 8-10, 10-11, 11-12 - all of them were anti-eco/anti-forces

7. MONGOLZ - HOW CAN THEY KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS? they've got bad underlying fragging numbers, yet they win rounds. why is that? i've got a theory most of the adv. stats we use are based on an economical adjustment, and they're a team that likes to throw economy out the window - they rank 2nd best in terms of win% on eco rounds (12.5%, just behind, who else, Vitality at 16%) and 2nd worst in terms of how often they lose to ecos (87.5%, only ahead of legacy) there's enough chaos in there to make the models confused, i think

8. PARIVISION - THEY'RE BAD NOW. ARE FUT GOOD NOW? there was no real question posed in that segment and if you'd like to watch some roster stuff check out Narrative Mechanic with luz and thorin, so i thought i'd re-visit a chart that i posted about PARI being elite in close games, to see if that might be a reason they dropped off everyone except for Jame got slightly worse in close games the last 3 months. on the other side of the coin, almost everyone on FUT solved their choking issues, aside from launx (whose sample is kinda low cause he didnt play fort worth but ya know, narratives).

9. SPIRIT - IS JAB JABICH A FRAUD? let me leave you with this - it turns out that even though we all praised this frog plushie for being a tactical genius, he unfortunately hindered the team in the most important stat of all. spirit's kills on enemies flashed are back at hally levels...

6. MOUZ - -JIMPPHAT that was a big move and there presumably had to have been some out of the server reasons for it, since my stats LOVE him as an anchor. before his benching he was: -> the best A ancient anchor -> a top 3 B overpass anchor (xfl0ud, esenthial before him who played lesser teams) -> a top 2 B mirage anchor (behind teses, thank karrigan for moving him to A) in terms of bombsite holds above average. put that together with him being average on inferno and you've got yourself a top 5 anchor in the world!
