About this map
On Think Ahead, a Knockout map, 1,985,741 battles have been recorded so far across 33 tracked brawlers. Bolt leads the win rate board at 77%, with Ash close behind at 77%. By pure popularity, Piper leads at 5.7% use rate, converting at 62%. Knockout maps have no respawns, so bush placement and cover density matter more here than in almost any other mode, a bad first engagement can lose the round outright.
Bolt stands out here, winning 9.3 percentage points more than the average brawler tracked on this map. The most-used pick here isn't the strongest one, Bolt still edges it out. One comp stands out: Piper, Colette and Pierce have taken 79% across 258 games together. Think Ahead is currently live in the rotation, so this reflects an active window of play.
