by mapThe same rounds, one map at a time

The same rounds, one map at a time and still cut by Premier season — the shape of each line is the finding; the all-time figure beside each name is the same aggregate this page led with above, kept here as context rather than the headline.

veto orderWhat teams ban, pick, and leave over

veto_actions.seq orders every ban and pick inside a match, which pulls apart three signals a plain picked/removed count blurs together: the first ban (the map a team most wants gone), the first pick (the map it most wants), and the decider (the map neither side chose, left over once banning finished). Every rate below divides by only the matches where that map actually sat in the Active Duty pool that month — a map outside the pool cannot be banned, picked, or left over, so counting it against every match played that month would understate it. A map with zero such matches shows no rate at all, not a rate of zero.

Normalising this way matters, and this window has a map that shows it: Train spent part of this window outside the Active Duty pool, so a share computed against every match played that month (rather than only the ones it could be banned in) makes its first-ban rate look like it climbed after 2025-03-01 (2.3% → 11.2%) when, normalised, it fell (25.7% → 19.2%). That's why every figure on this page is opportunity-normalised rather than a share of all matches.

Split at 2025-03-01 — roughly the midpoint of this window's own coverage — first-ban rate moves the most for Train (25.7% → 19.2%, −6.5pts), Dust II (9.1% → 14.0%, +4.9pts), Anubis (12.9% → 17.2%, +4.3pts), and Mirage (17.2% → 13.2%, −4.0pts), in that order. Train is the most first-banned map in the second half of this window. The full set, with sample sizes, is below.

by tournamentWhere each event’s own numbers live

Everything above is this window averaged across every Tier 1 event it holds. Each event on its own — which maps it played, its own veto order, its own CT/T split against the season it sat in, and a champion where its own format supports naming one — is inside the season it sat in, at /seasons/.
