Axis by axis
Execution6 vs 5

Dodging hordes and aiming skill shots is the test.

Driving and shooting demand decent inputs.

Light food-stealing mindgames between co-op partners only.

Online PvP exists but mostly gear/positioning, not modeling.
Variance3 vs 2
Gauntlet: Slayer Edition leans a little harder on variance, though the gap is small.
Gauntlet: Slayer Edition
Spawner placement and pickups vary modestly.
Grand Theft Auto V
Some mission and lobby randomness.
Optimization4 vs 4
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Gauntlet: Slayer Edition
Relic and class choices give a small solvable edge.
Grand Theft Auto V
Heists, money loops, builds learnable.
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
