Aim and Utility Benchmarks Recalculated

Keeping our benchmarks calibrated on current data is important, because as the people who play CS improve and change strategies, the numbers underlying these playstyles change. This update helps ensure that our ratings match what the expected performance across the playerbase, and Aim and Utility Ratings don't just slowly inflate over time as the playerbase improves.

We've done two things which will impact your Aim and Utility Ratings on your profile:

  1. Recalculated aim and utility benchmarks based on Premier Season 3 data.
  2. Fixed a bug with equipment calculations that was leading to "unused utility on death" values being way too low.

Other than controlling the Aim Rating and Utility Rating numbers on your profile, these benchmarks impact the color-coding of numbers on your match report.

Expect your Aim Rating to be about 6 points higher on your Profile, and your Utility Rating to be about 10 points lower. These numbers vary a bit from person to person, but were fairly consistent across the playerbase in our testing.

Back when we did benchmarks for Season 2, there weren't enough players in the 25k+ range for us to generate a dedicated benchmark set, so 20k+ was our top bucket. For Season 3, we were able to get enough matches to generate a valid benchmark for 20k-25k, so now there's a separation in Leetify between that range and 25k+!
