What the data says about Konnakol

Konnakol is one of the Knockout maps with the most recorded battles in our sample: 2,712 high-level games over the last 14 days, with 102 different brawlers seen on it. This page ranks those brawlers by their real win rate on this specific map, not by their average performance across the game, which is the figure that usually leads to bad picks.

The 2,712 battles in the 14-day window spread that sample across 102 brawlers, so the top of the ranking is backed by dozens of games each rather than by a handful of isolated cases. Every row shows its own count so you can judge how reliable the figure is without leaving the page.

The best picks on this map

The best brawler on Konnakol is Wendy, with a 78.6% win rate across 348 battles recorded on this map. It is the first option to consider when this rotation comes around, and also the pick most worth banning or countering if the enemy team gets there first.

Wendy performs here practically the same as on the rest of the Knockout maps: it is a consistent pick, the kind that does not depend on a particular rotation showing up. In draft that is worth a lot, because you can commit to it before knowing which map is coming.

The second option is Max, with 70.4% across 41 battles, 8.2 points behind the leader. When the distance between the first and second pick is that short, the choice depends more on the enemy composition and on the rest of your team than on the map itself.

Nori closes the podium at 67.5%. Having three clear options instead of just one makes Konnakol a comfortable map to draft on: if the first one gets banned, you are not left without a plan.

The most picked brawler on Konnakol is not necessarily the best: it is Wendy, present in 348 battles, 12.8% of every game recorded on the map. The distance between what is most picked and what actually works is usually where the edge is, because most players repeat a pick out of habit rather than out of data.

Konnakol is a polarised map: there are 35.6 percentage points between the best and the worst brawler in the ranking. On a map like this the draft matters more than mechanics, and bringing a pick from the bottom of the table is giving away an advantage before the game starts.

Brawlers that perform worse on Konnakol

Mandy49 battles43%Ziggy14 battles45.5%Leon20 battles46%

The worst record on the map belongs to Mandy, who stays at a 43% win rate across 49 battles on Konnakol. It is not a bad brawler: this ground neutralises what it usually excels at, so there are better options almost every time.

Just above it comes Ziggy at 45.5%, so it is worth keeping on the radar too before confirming your pick.

These bottom placements are as useful as the top ones: knowing what not to bring to Konnakol avoids more losses than nailing the best pick, especially in Knockout, where a bad selection is paid for across the whole game and not just in the first fight.

How Knockout is played

In Knockout there is no respawn: every death is final within the round, so the value of information and of the first shot goes through the roof. Brawlers with long range and with tools to reveal positions dominate, and risking a badly judged push costs the whole round. Read the Konnakol order with that caution in mind.

Konnakol rotates in and out of the official Knockout rotation every few days. This page does not depend on it being active right now: the ranking is computed over recent history, so it remains the best reference available the day the map shows up again.

Every percentage comes from real high-level battles sampled continuously, aggregated over a rolling 14-day window and adjusted with Bayesian smoothing. That adjustment avoids the classic false positive: a brawler with three games and three wins does not show up at 100%, but close to the average, until it builds up the sample to back it.
