How to read this

Win rates are wins as a share of games played over the trailing 4 weeks, counted from qualifying tournament results.

A faction reads as above the line at 52% or more, below the line under 48%, and around the line in between.

Under 200 games in the window we print the number and call no standing.

Matchups need 25 games before they are shown.

Detachment and disposition figures are how often each was BROUGHT — the source publishes no win rate per detachment, so neither do we.
