Leaderboard for Flex Players That Use Both AR and SMG
In the previous two posts. I looked at SMG and AR stats separated. Today we are looking at strictly Flex players from the 2020 MW Season. The graph below illustrates all Flex players who played a minimum of 10 maps with an AR and a Sub (HP+Dom Only).
- Flex players who are above the solid black line were theoretically better when using an SMG, players below the line were better with an AR.
- The dotted red line indicates the league average. Before that line = below league average; after = above league average flex.
- Looking at specific standouts, Fero had almost identical SMG and AR statistics. Based on this, (for MW at least) it was a mistake to have him use an AR on certain maps with how dominate he was with an SMG in his hands.
- Interesting to note Prestinni was massively better when using an AR, this is likely due to the aggressive entry role he was playing with a Sub though. So for those who doubt his ability, yes he is extremely talented.
- GodRx is one of the slower flex players in the league, but it would be insane with his ability using both weapons (and sniper in SND) to not get a roster spot next season given the other names he is next to on this graph.
