Estimate, not insider information

Will Deadman Danny get nerfed?

Our next-balance-patch estimate increases with above-average win rate and pick share. It has not been calibrated against historical nerfs and is not a reliable forecast of Valve’s decisions.

z = −2.2 + 0.35 × (win% − 50) + 0.08 × pick share%
estimate = round(100 ÷ (1 + exp(−z)))

Inputs: win 42.06%, pick share 0.87%. Minimum 1,000 observations; otherwise no reading. Patch history below is evidence, not an input to the estimate.
