Classifiers Quality, Difficulty & Partials

Classifier Quality varies depending on how well scores correlate to a shooter’s major match performance and overall classification percentage.

Classifier Difficulty varies depending on the shape of the distribution; it can be defined as the average score as a percentage of the Recommended High Hit Factor (Rec. HHF).

Easier classifiers are generally "better" than harder ones.

Partials, Virginia Count, Weak Hand Only (WHO), Strong Hand Only (SHO), and Mandatory Reloads make classifiers harder.

Most stages in Major Matches do not feature Virginia Count, WHO, SHO, or Mandatory Reloads. This causes classifiers containing these elements to correlate poorly with match performance, resulting in lower quality compared to more "stage-like" classifiers.
