A quick note before jumping in: this review will take on a slightly humorous tone inspired by the legal world — a nod to the TV show Better Call Saul, from which the title of this column, Better Call Sauk, originally takes its inspiration.

I've been short on time and motivation this month, so I'm just compiling the charts for you—I won't be providing any analysis; I'll leave that up to each of you.
Feel free to send me a DM if you'd like to discuss any specific points.

Reminder before the analysis
Before diving into the graphs, here are a few key things to keep in mind:
⮚ Data scope:
Only tournaments with more than 40 players worldwide are included.
⮚ Disclaimer :
This is a personal initiative that does not bind the committee or affect any of its potential decisions.
Other voluntary projects can also be submitted on our new website.
Please do not hesitate to ask us for more information.
I’d like to remind everyone that my work relies on data analysis — the more data we have, the more reliable the results are. Please remind your Tournament Organizers that it’s important to report and share their events.
⮚ Updates :
There will be new graphs, so please feel free to give me your feedback so I can improve them next time.

That's all from me. I hope my findings were interesting, that the verdict is clear to you, and that you'll make the right calls when it's time to find the deck guilty of victory in your next tournament!
Feel free to come talk to me (or PM me) to suggest other statistics which could be interesting.

Remember: in this court, everyone's innocent… until proven broken.
