The MongolZ

✅ Ancient strength: 83% winrate over 6 maps is a strong tactical pick

✅ Reliably steers the veto to Inferno (67% pick rate)

❌ Only 40% winrate on Inferno over 10 maps — exploitable in the veto

❌ Practically never plays Anubis (100% banned), reducing veto flexibility

❌ Weak head-to-head (33% versus Legacy) undermines matchup confidence

Legacy

✅ Mirage strength: 69% winrate over 13 maps is a strong tactical pick

✅ Head-to-head edge: 67% versus The MongolZ historically gives veto and psychological advantage

❌ Practically never plays Anubis (100% banned), reducing veto flexibility
