How we calculate this

In observed win rates, ± shows half the width of the likely range; n is the number of games or appearances counted. Percentage-point differences are labeled pp.

Grades use win rates adjusted toward the overall average to reduce small-sample swings. Difference from the corresponding population average, in percentage points: S at or above +3; A at or above +1 and < +3; B > -1 and < +1; C > -3 and at or below -1; D at or below -3. A dash means not enough data. The displayed win rate is the observed rate; grades use the adjusted rate. Hero-summary grades use all ranks, clean matches for this patch.

Win rate when bought is the observed match win rate among buyers. Win rate impact compares eligible same-tier alternatives in the same purchase phase after giving them a common mix of purchase times, team wealth leads and ranks. Compare only rows with the same alternatives and mix; numbered groups distinguish different comparisons when a table contains more than one. The reference includes the item itself; zero is the reference average. Data covered is the share of the intended comparison mix supported by the data, counted in groups of purchase time, team wealth lead and rank.

The likely range is a 95% interval accounting for purchases from the same match, conditional on the chosen alternatives and mix. Likely helps means the entire range is above zero; likely hurts means below zero; unclear includes zero. Not enough data means a comparison failed its sample, support or display requirements. These associations do not establish cause, account for unmeasured differences or repeated players across matches, predict future patches, or add up to a build win rate. Filtering items does not change the comparison groups, weights or estimates.

Expected win chance at purchase is the average win chance a separate model of the game gave the buyers just before they bought. Win rate vs expected is the buyers' actual win rate minus that expected chance, measured on the same data used to fit the model. Edge over same-tier items is that difference minus the average difference for same-tier items on this hero in the same phase; it is observational, not the win rate impact comparison. Purchase shares use all hero appearances. Rows are limited to 10 per comparison tier.

Win chance effect comes from a statistical model over clean matches of this patch and match tier. It is shown in percentage points above a 50% baseline from this hero's side: positive means this hero's side wins more often. Tables are sorted by the underlying model coefficient.
