Advantage (Adv) - The difference between the actual winrate of the heroes and the expected winrate from their base winrates.
Example: Let's take two heroes, Superman, with a general winrate of 53%, and Lex Luthor, with a general winrate of 47%. When they meet on the battlefield they each have a statistical winrate of 50%.
In this case it's obvious that, even if they have the same winrate when they battle, there is some sort of innate statistical advantage that Lex Luthor (average winrate 47% but 50% against Superman) has over Superman (average winrate 53% but 50% against Lex Luthor). There are many theories about why this happens, but the most common one is related to Kryptonite.
Winrate (WR) - The winrate between the two heroes.
Weighted over the skill brackets (Very High 35%, High 45%, Normal 20%). Advantage: how much better the matchup goes than the two heroes' own win rates predict, doubled (+6 is about 3 win rate points). Win rate: Lina's win rate against or together with the hero.

Skill level:
Each line in the graph represents the probability that Lina brings an advantage to the total XP of a team
at a certain point in time (the probability to change the inclination of the xp graph).
Lina's team wins the experience race most often early: around minute 10 it gains the experience lead in 52.2% of games. That edge is gone by minute 20 (48.4%), so fights and objectives before then favour its team.
The chart shows, every 5 minutes and for each skill bracket, the share of games in which Lina's team gains more experience than the enemy team (50% is neutral). All heroes compared: Hero XP Advantage by Minute.
