Axis by axis

Execution7 vs 8

Quake 4 leans harder on execution: Aimbot plus strafe-jump inputs dominate both campaign and multiplayer

Reads5 vs 5

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance3 vs 2

Ironsight leans harder on variance: Spread and drone spawns inject moderate round-to-round chaos

Optimization4 vs 4
