The read

Anti-infantry sits in the top 8%, spread across the list; reach is in the bottom third.

«the top 8%» means above roughly 92% 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.

Good — The list has several independent ways to meet this condition.

A Grievous Blow
A Tempting Target
Bring It Down
Burden Of Trust
Cleanse
No Prisoners
Overwhelming Force
Secure No Man's Land

Possible — The list can attempt this, but it depends on positioning or a key unit.

Defend Stronghold
Display Of Might
Engage On All Fronts
Forward Position
Plunder

Difficult — This condition is hard to support with the current list shape.

Assassination
Beacon
Behind Enemy Lines
Centre Ground
Outflank

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.
