Pokémon, items, types: the game's tiers (the API stops at C; D is this page's split, mirroring S). Comps are graded stricter, on the pessimistic average (avg + CI) against the reference: S ≤ 3.27, A ≤ 3.92, B ≤ 4.67, C ≤ 5.27, D above. A noisy sample cannot be S. Comps under 30 effective games are hidden by default.

Every unit of the final board once, on the hex it most often stands on in this comp's real boards (the % is how often). Gold hex = the carry. Dashed hexes marked ~ have no data for this comp: they take the unit's usual hex across every other comp, or a free hex in the rows its range calls for.
