2. The Sleeper Hunt
Everyone knows the meta cards, but where are the hidden gems? We plotted every card's Win Rate against its Usage Rate. Cards in the top-left quadrant (High Win, Low Usage) are your "Sleeper Picks" — statistically strong but underplayed.
- Top Right: Meta Staples (Safe picks)
- Top Left: Sleepers (High skill ceiling / Surprise factor)
- Bottom Right: Overrated (Popular but losing)

3. The Tempo Analysis
Does playing faster decks actually lead to more wins? We analyzed the average win rate for decks at different Elixir Costs.
In the current meta, we often see a "sweet spot" where cycle decks (low elixir) outperform heavier beatdown decks due to their ability to out-cycle counters.

4. Regional Playstyles
Do players from different regions favor different strategies? We aggregated deck archetypes by the clan location of top players.
This data reveals cultural meta differences. For example, some regions might heavily favor "Bridge Spam" aggression, while others prefer calculated "Control" decks.
