Player Profile: Win rates per god/map
Create a player profile window to show win rates of each god - if I click on Zeus in the dropdown, and 1v1 supremacy in the matchmaking filter, show me my win % vs all gods in 1v1 supremacy ranked. Also list win% per map separately. Provide in 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 (playlisted modes). Do not fetch data from custom games as they create noise. Filter for seasons if those are a thing.

ELO to use AoM original algorithm (w/ decay & seasons)
