R-T

Who is R-T

R-T is a Mythic-rarity brawler of class Damage Dealer. This article summarizes their performance in the current competitive meta: best map, hardest counters, and the weekly trend of their win rate. The numbers come from top-PRO battles over the last 14 days, Bayesian-smoothed so a brawler with a small sample doesn't show a misleading percentage.

Over the 14-day window, R-T has shown up in 2,930 battles with a global win rate of 72.6% and a pick rate of 0.6%. That pick rate is the share of matches where a top-PRO player chose R-T out of every available brawler, so it works as a thermometer for how meta they are right now.

Across the full roster, R-T's trend is among the weakest: their win rate is falling below 2% of brawlers with a measurable trend this week. That signal often foreshadows the meta turning against the brawler before it even shows in their global win rate.

R-T belongs to the Mythics, the rarity where nearly every kit is built around a high skill ceiling. They aren't first-pick brawlers for new accounts because they usually demand map reading, cooldown management and matchup knowledge, but in PRO hands they make the difference between winning and losing a match. Their upgrade investment becomes a priority once you understand the meta.

As a Damage Dealer, the role is to apply lane pressure at medium range: clean shooting lines hold zone control and force the enemy to move. This isn't a brawler that opens fights up close — it's the one that punishes any positioning mistake from the opponent. In team play it sits behind the tank, covering flanks and finishing objectives once the fight has already developed.

Best maps for R-T

The best map for R-T is Nutmeg in Brawl Ball, with a Bayesian-adjusted win rate of 81.7% over 79 battles. That puts them above their class average in this mode, so it's worth picking R-T when that rotation is live. A strong run on Nutmeg usually combines favorable geometry (short ranges or cover) and a mode whose objective plays into the brawler's kit.

R-T's performance is highly map-dependent: there are 39.1 percentage points between their best and worst map. That high variance means it pays to check the rotation before locking them in, because the same brawler swings from one of the best options to a clearly unfavorable pick depending on the map.

As a second map option, R-T also performs well on Jungle Top (Knockout) with a 77.3% win rate, only 4.3 points off their best map. When the gap between the top two maps is this small, picking one over the other comes down to the enemy team more than the brawler itself.

Rounding out the podium, R-T holds a 77.3% win rate on Slippery Showdown (Brawl Hockey) over 67 battles. Having three competitive maps widens the rotation windows worth bringing them in for, not just their signature map.

Just above their worst result, R-T also struggles on Layer Cake, where their win rate sits at 45.7%. Keep this map on your radar as a second warning sign when deciding the pick.

On the opposite end, Singed Earth (Brawl Ball) drops R-T's win rate to 42.6%. That's the bottom tail of a 39.1-point range between their best and worst map, so if that rotation comes up during a session, consider a different brawler to avoid throwing matches.

Counters and matchups

R-T clearly dominates the matchup against Mortis: across the 374 recorded battles for that pairing, their win rate climbs to 77.5%. If you spot Mortis on the enemy team in draft, that lane is an edge for R-T — seek the duel out rather than avoid it.

Their second-best matchup is against Rico, where R-T holds a 74.5% win rate over 205 battles. Two strong favorable counters like these give R-T real value as a targeted pick against comps that lean on those two brawlers.

Where R-T has a clear disadvantage is against Charlie: their win rate drops to 48.2% across the 26 battles recorded for that matchup. If Charlie shows up on the enemy team, consider not picking R-T or changing the game plan to avoid the shared lane, because Charlie wins that exchange.

Per-brawler matchups are the smallest-sample metric on the page: for R-T the samples range from 7 to 374 battles. Read them with the confidence that sample implies — a matchup at the low end says far less than one backed by the high one.

This section lists the matchups where R-T performs worst and best over the last 90 days, sampled from top PRO players and smoothed with Bayesian WR to avoid noise.

Star Powers, gadgets and hypercharge

To get the most out of R-T in the current meta, prioritize upgrades by synergy with their kit, not by gem cost. Star powers, gadgets and hypercharge change tiers depending on the meta, so the upgrade priority is dynamic.

As a general rule, the first profitable upgrade for R-T is usually the star power with the highest pick rate in PRO tournaments, followed by the gadget that best fits their role (lane, support, or pick). Hypercharge, when it exists, comes last because it costs more Coins and Power Points and only triggers with a full super bar.

By game mode, R-T performs best in Knockout, with a 74.3% win rate over 1,074 battles — the mode with the most recorded sample for this brawler. That makes Knockout the context where their performance is most reliable and where investing in upgrades pays off most clearly.

Beyond the immediate meta, the upgrade path for R-T should prioritize what moves the win rate needle the most: power 11 before gears, first star power before second, primary gadget before any hypercharge. Hypercharges cost a lot of coins and power points and only activate with a full super bar, so their real priority drops toward the end of the checklist.

Weekly meta analysis

Over the last 7 days, R-T's win rate dropped from 84.8% to 66.4%, a fall of −18.4 points versus the previous half of the window. With both halves above the sample minimum, that drop is a real signal: the meta is moving against R-T, usually from a rotation of maps or a rising counter.

Compared with the rest of the roster, that move leaves R-T falling below 2% of brawlers with a measurable trend this week — they're at the bottom end of those losing ground. It doesn't mean they're unplayable, but it's worth waiting for the next map rotation before prioritizing their investment.

Every percentage on the R-T page comes from real battles played by the world's top players, aggregated with statistical smoothing and recomputed every six hours. If you want to understand why one map performs better than another or how a rotation affects the win rate, the methodology page covers the technical detail step by step.
