Per-map veto counts and the thin-sample rule

A row marked "thin sample" played under a quarter of this event's own busiest map — the same relative cut `/pro-meta` uses for a thin season or month, applied here within this one event. A map with no CT/T bar was banned before it was ever played, not omitted.

against the seasonHow it compares with its own season

This event played 97 maps at 45.7% CT; Season 2 as a whole played 790 maps at 48.7% CT (1.3pts T-leaning) — 3.0pts more T-sided than the season as a whole.

97 maps is under a quarter of Season 2's 790 maps — a small sample against the season it sat in, marked here rather than read as equally trustworthy.
