Janet's strongest measured map is Undermine (Gem Grab): 56% over 32 matches (early signal). Its weakest is Gem Fort (Gem Grab): 47% over 62 matches (early signal). 3 maps have at least 30 Janet matches; maps with fewer are left out.

On these maps Janet loses more often than it wins. The match count tells you how much weight to give each one.

A win rate only means something when enough matches sit behind it. Next to every number we say how sure we are:

• reliable — 200 matches or more: a solid basis for a verdict.
• fairly reliable — 80 to 199 matches: enough to spot a real pattern.
• early signal — 30 to 79 matches: a hint, not a verdict.
• too few matches — fewer than 30 matches, so we do not show a win rate yet.

A 60% win rate over 40 matches can easily be luck; a 54% win rate over 800 matches is a real edge. Maps and modes with fewer than 30 matches are listed without a win rate on purpose.

Blind-pick safety is coaching metadata, not a meta ranking: it says how risky Janet is to lock in before you can see the enemy draft. Janet scores 5/10.

As a marksman, Janet is favoured into tank, fighter, support.

• With your air-strike super across the whole map you focus Gene: Gene has low HP and a slow attack.
• With your air-strike super across the whole map you focus Poco: Poco can barely defend himself.
• With your air-strike super across the whole map you focus Pam: Pam lacks mobility and her damage falls off at range.
• With your air-strike super across the whole map you focus Tara: Tara misses damage once you stay out of her three-shot spread.

Janet struggles against assassin, thrower, artillery and on maps that do not support the marksman role.
