Time Flies Wipeout Shows a Pick-Rate Gap
BrawlMetrics’ Time Flies Wipeout page showed an unusual pick-rate split at its October 11, 13:10 UTC update. Chuck topped the observed win table at 74.7% with only 0.4% use. Edgar was selected far more often, at 6.2% use, and won 56.0% of recorded games. The page had counted 28,542 battles while the map was live.
The timestamp is important because a live map changes quickly. This article reports the page’s 13:10 UTC state, not a permanent ranking for Time Flies. The battle count, selection shares and leaders can move as players finish more games. Anyone seeking a current pick should reopen the source before a match.
Chuck’s high displayed win rate is paired with a very small 0.4% use share. Mina followed at 70.4% wins and 0.7% use, with Lola at 68.5% and 0.6%. Chester showed 67.5% at 0.6% use, while Bo appeared more often, 1.2%, with 66.5% wins. Those entries suggest choices worth examining, but a rare selection can be played in particular lineups and matchups.
Edgar led popularity at 6.2% and 56.0% wins. Brock followed in use at 3.2% with 47.3% wins. Colt had 2.9% use and 47.2% wins; Rico was used 2.8% of the time with 57.2% wins. Piper had 2.7% use and 44.2% wins. Those numbers show that a commonly chosen brawler can perform quite differently from another pick with a similar selection share.
Wipeout is a different test from Knockout
Wipeout is built around eliminating opponents over a round, with players returning after deaths. That creates a different flow from Knockout, where a fallen teammate stays out for the rest of the round. A high observed win rate on Time Flies cannot be carried unchanged into a Knockout draft. The objective, spacing and cost of a single death differ.
Because respawns exist, controlling safe lanes and avoiding repeated losses matters across the whole round. A team can adjust its route after a mistake, but it also gives opponents more chances to build a lead. This mode context gives map-specific data its value. It still cannot isolate the effect of one brawler from the teammates, opponents and player choices around that brawler.
Tara sat at 28.9% wins with 0.9% use in this snapshot. The number is a map-specific warning signal, not a claim about Tara’s general strength. The gap between Chuck’s rare high-win appearance and Edgar’s common selection is similarly a measured contrast, not proof that every player should switch immediately.
The site’s other October 11 map analysis covers New Perspective in Knockout. That page is out of rotation and has a much larger historical sample. Time Flies was live at the stated check, had a smaller and faster-changing sample, and involves respawns. Keeping the two pieces separate protects readers from applying the wrong mode’s percentages to the wrong queue.
There is no official balance judgment embedded in these third-party figures. They are observations from BrawlMetrics’ recorded matches. When a live sample is still growing, the exact date and time are part of every claim.
A useful reading before the next match
Verify Time Flies is in the current rotation. Then compare the latest source update with this 13:10 UTC snapshot; if the sample has grown, prefer the newer figures for live decisions. Check both use and win rates, especially for rare top performers. A percentage without its selection share is easy to overstate.
Next, consider the Wipeout team’s roles. The lineup needs a plan for safe engagements, lane control and recovery after a respawn. A standout individual rate does not reveal whether three selected brawlers can work together against the opposing composition.
The dated finding remains useful even if the live chart changes: popular Edgar was far more common than high-win Chuck, and several middle-use picks had widely different observed outcomes. That gives players a reason to test alternatives, while the fast-moving page supplies the next measurement.

| Brawler | Win rate at snapshot | Use rate |
|---|---|---|

| Mina | 70.4% | 0.7% |

Time Flies offered a live Wipeout case study at the October 11 check. Chuck’s observed success was striking but came from a small share of picks, whereas Edgar appeared much more often with a lower win rate. Those facts matter only with the 13:10 UTC timestamp and the mode’s respawn-based objective attached. As the map continues collecting matches, both count and ordering may shift. The right follow-up is to check the newest numbers and the actual rotation, then use this snapshot as dated evidence for reviewing selection habits.
