## What it adds over stat sites

Tier lists and win rates per map and rank are available elsewhere. PickGak also takes into account the current enemy comp (counter-picks), your party (duo/trio compositions), your preferred heroes, and ban votes that protect your heroes. It explains each pick with per-hero matchups and synergies.

Hero search understands Korean initial consonants (`ㄹㅇ` → Reinhardt).
