There was recently a question on Discord as to whether minelayers are used, to which tux replied "Yes." Interestingly however, S16 featured the fewest average number of minelayers per game of any season of RAGL and continues dramatic drop off in usage starting in S13. 028_MinelayersQueuedPerGame.png...

Hans wanted to see some stats around flamer usage, and I was surprised to find I've not really covered this before. 044_PercentageOfSovietQueueConsistingOfFlamers.png First up, here is the usage graph showing each season of RAGL. The first three seasons featured far more off-meta play than subsequen...

Recently there was a discussion about the viability of migs in 1v1 matches, so I thought it would be interesting to look through the matches where these were produced from this season. There were only seventeen matches where a mig was queued so I fast forwarded through them all to gather a few stats...

Before this season there was a lot of talk about whether triple ref builds were too powerful. In the following graph these are contained in the "Other Rx,Rf,Rf" (turquoise) section. There's definitely an increase in popularity, but they are still hardly making a dent in the top three sections, which...

Two of the maps this season featured neutral kennels, but that didn't seem to affect how frequently kennels were built. The win rate for kennels this season was 48.6%. The win rates for Soviet players who skipped a kennel was 48.4% - identical to the overall win rate for Soviets. A tiny advantage, a...

Looking at subfactions then Russia seems to have swapped with Ukraine. This season was the first to feature nerfed tesla tanks from BI-4.2, but I doubt they've made Russia so significantly weaker. I'll share some tesla tank graphs later on. 001_SubfactionWinRate.png Tech buildings have become slight...

Due to the number of signups and rate of forfeits this was one of the seasons with the fewest games. There were still a couple of hundred, so enough to be worth looking at the stats for. 001_GamesPerSeason.png Overall Allies maintained a slight edge over Soviets. Potentially this could be due to pla...

Week 8 Master's Match of the Week Just a single group stage match this week, as we were waiting to see if inno played his last match match or received a third strike. Not only did inno play, but it was also an entertaining game, so the Master's Match of the Week is inno vs Unano. inno vs Unano (Mas...
