HR: Player Profiles

I've gone through and spent some time analyzing the clan's stats from the Beta and have some interesting data to share.  Our clan falls out into a few basic groups of players.  I'll post one profile a day until I've got everybody's up.  If you want yours early, comment here and I'll prioritize.  You'll see "types" of players from these defintions:

• Style
• Ranged: Prefers medium to long range weapons, excels at headshots.  These players use weapons like the DMR, Needle Rifle and Magnum most often.  Can operate effectively alone, but is most effective supporting teammates that are up close in battle.
• Run and Gun: Prefers short range encounters, tends to jump straight into battle.  These players  use the AR and melee most often.  They put most of their rounds into the body area and have higher assist numbers, generally most effective when operating in groups of 2 or more.
• Bombadier: Prefers short to medium range encounters, tends be more cautious during battle and may pull out to avoid fire or allow shields to recharge.  These players use the AR and frag grenade most often.  Typically do well when supported by Run and Gun types.
• Role
• Precision Slayer: All "Ranged" style players are classified as Precision Slayer.  This means they are skilled at getting precision headshots and cleaning up kills at range.
• Frontline Leader: This is seasoned player that thrives on the frontlines.  They can hold their own and get kills without support, but are best utilized when leading fireteams into the fray.
• Frontline Support: This is a player that enjoys being in the firefight, but would benefit from being able to drop out of the fight on occasion to recharge.  Best suited for following a "Frontline Leader" player and providing support fire.
• Specialist
• Some players gravitate towards power weapons or other specialty roles.  I will point this out when appropriate.

As an example, here is my profile to start things off:

Player: gtdroptop

• Rank: Warrant Officer Grade 2; Arena Season 1: Silver
• Games: 168; Kills: 1796; Deaths: 1647; Assists: 666; Time: 1:00:18; Wins: 83; Medals: 2398
• Win %: 49%; K/D: 1.09; K/G: 10.69; D/G: 9.80; A/G: 3.96; M/G: 14.27; Encounters/G: 25.55

Ranged Precision Slayer, Hammer Specialist. Having logged the most games in the Beta, gtdroptop leads the clan in more stat categories than anyone else.  Seeks out the DMR and Gravity Hammer, when available, is also comfortable with similar precision weapons like the Magnum or Needle Rifle.  Has the highest Kill/Death ratio in the Beta, also notably has high Kills/Game and Medals/Game ratios.  Comparatively low Assists/Game numbers indicate a propensity to get headshots at range.

Best suited: Medium to long range slayer, providing precision kill support to team mates on the front lines.
