Share is of the map battles this page counts; length is the average.

Mode ↔ map mismatch

No authored mismatch on this map: its counted length and draw share sit inside the mode’s own band.

The mode’s own map read: Walls around the mine decide who can contest; open lanes reward the longer range.

Checked against this mode’s counted band — no typed threshold, no invented figure. GamGem editorial — not measured

Role checklist

On Undermine: 15,832 counted battles, 0.00% draws, average 1:45. Tap the jobs your team covers.

Still vacant: tank, long range, support. Fill them before you queue.

Jobs are cut from this mode’s written role shape; nothing here is a measured figure.

Showdown — a place, never a win rate

GamGem calculation from BS_MATCH_SHOWDOWN + BS_MATCH_SAMPLE.variants

A placement, never a win rate: average place = (place−1)/(field−1)×100, so 0% is always first.
