Patch Change Thought Process and Direction
Changes regarding test subjects are mainly based on High-tier Ranked statistics. [See Stats]
The total pick rate for test subjects that can use multiple weapons is also taken into consideration.
Adjusted Avg. Kills are calculated and used to see overall performance regarding kills, as field kills and Battle Zone kills are weighed differently.
As Update 0.88.0 is the final patch of the Ranked Season, we wanted to avoid drastical changes that would affect character play and instead, we focused on making statistically based adjustments only.
