How are the Blazer's Stats calculated? I have tried several times to work out a system that works, but there are too many mage-knights that make them wrong, and I just can't work out how you judge a mage-knight's rank with stats alone.

Does anyone have a clue?

I tried a numerical method (ie. S = 0, A= 1, etc. which works for most, but not Ikki (who should be E-rank), Amane (would be C-rank) and Ouma (would be B-rank), to name a few by this system.

I tried a mode method (most common recurring letter, which doesn't work for Shizuku (would be C-rank), Ayase (would be E-rank), and Kuraudo (would be B-rank).

I went as far as to range the highest three letters (back to my first example, but only top three make the average, which doesn't work for Ikki (would be D-rank), Kuraudo (would again be B-rank), and Tohka (would be A-rank).

I also tried the using the median (finding the middle letter(s), which doesn't work for Shizuku (would again be C-rank), Amane (would again be C-rank), and Yudai (would be C-rank).

Again, does anyone have a clue how this ranking system is even worked out at all?
