Interesting Valorant stats by Tier
Hello!
I analyzed data from over 500,000 players using the official API. Today, I'm excited to share two intriguing stats: Headshot Percentage by Tier and Trade Kills/Traded Deaths.
- Headshot Percentage by Tier:
- A pretty straightforward statistic - a gradual increase in headshot percentages as the tier gets higher.
- For those looking to gauge their aiming skills, comparing your headshot percentage with others in the same tier could be a great benchmark.
- On a side note, I'm currently developing a feature on my website to facilitate this comparison. Stay tuned! (Top X percentage accuracy in your tier)
- edit: My calculation only counts if the kill occurred with the shots, so It could be higher than other stat measuring websites. so Don't feel awful even if you are lower than the average lol.
- Trade Kills and Traded Deaths:
- These graphs are more interesting..
- Trade Kills show a gradual increase across tiers, but there's a notable plateau in the mid-tiers (Silver to Ascendant). This suggests that players in these tiers might be undervaluing the importance of trade kills compare to immortal + players.
- Traded Deaths present an even more fascinating trend. They're higher in the lower tiers than in mid-tiers, but interestingly, they increase again in the higher tiers.
- This pattern could imply that players in lower tiers are overly cautious, those in mid-tiers are making risky plays but not always positioning themselves for trades effectively, while high-tier players excel in creating tradable situations.
These insights open up some interesting discussions about trad and strategies at different skill levels.If you're curious about more stats, I've analyzed the win rates of teams with and without controllers and clutch possibility for each tier. If that piques your interest, I could do that for my next post.
Looking forward to your thoughts and insights!
