Notes

  • The data is based on matches between female teams only, extracted from the Results overview.
  • The total of all regions is 847 instead of 858, because 11 maps were played during the only LAN of 2020 (GirlGamer Festival World Finals Dubai). These 11 maps cannot be attributed to a single region and were therefore omitted from the regional overviews.
  • Wins or losses by forfeit were excluded.
