The read

Anti-armour sits in the top 10%, spread across the list; objective control is in the bottom third.

«the top 10%» means above roughly 90% 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.

Anti-armour is the clearest answer here; Objective control is the pressure point to plan around.

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.
