Star Wars: Squadrons
Execution · Grand Arena
Team-based 5v5 Star Wars starfighter combat with cockpit power management.

Predicting human positioning and power-weapon pushes is constant
Star Wars: Squadrons
Human pilots in 5v5 bait, juke, and counter-adapt
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Halo 2: Anniversary
Static spawns and timers leave little true randomness
Star Wars: Squadrons
Full information maps; little randomness
Optimization5 vs 6

Weapon timers, map control and campaign routes are learnable systems
Star Wars: Squadrons
Power management and loadout meta are solvable layers
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.
