Safe picks and risky picks on Flaring Phoenix
Safe means winning here with a good sample and hard to punish when picked blind; risky means the numbers say it loses, or it wins but is easy to counter once the enemy sees it. The pick-order guide explains when to lock what.
Safe early picks
Winning record, a fairly reliable sample or better, and a blind-pick safety of at least 6/10 in the coaching model.
Strong, but keep for a late pick

How to read these numbers
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. Brawlers with fewer than 30 matches are listed without a win rate on purpose.
