The read

Anti-infantry sits in the top 1%, spread across the list.

«the top 1%» means above roughly 100% of sampled reference list shapes for that capability — a comparison, never win odds.

Shapevs the p50 ring

The shape, not the verdict. Area is not a score — two lists with the same area can play nothing alike. The bars beside it are the reading that counts, and each spoke is this list's percentile under baseline assumptions.

Fit is about list shape, not about what you will draw. A «difficult» card is still scorable — it just needs the game to go your way.
