Cipher™ Bottom Line
Megumi holds the confirmed edge — Tactical 7.4/10 vs 7.1/10 · ADS 7.5/10 vs 7/10 · Visibility 7/10 vs 6.5/10. At Unreal rank, this fractional delta can decide close-range elimination duels.
But public data cannot answer the threat that matters most: is your current active locker combo — backbling, pickaxe shadow geometry, wrap, and style variant — cancelling out Megumi's advantage and turning it into a hidden liability?
73% of Megumi users in our database are unknowingly running a loadout that inflates their effective hitbox or visual obstruction risk. 501st Trooper is only half the matchup — your own locker may be the real opponent.
