Is blue factually the worst faction?

I've seen many a post and comment discussing the winrates between green/red/blue, as well as player mentality when picking teams. Some have speculated that newer players tend to go blue because it's a nice-guy color, the further left in selection, or other reasons.

Others argue for map rebalancing, deployment zones etc.

I personally think that is all superstition and that the actual problem is player driven and self-sustained.

Hypothetical fresh-launch scenario:

Blue loses the first game you play. You don't want to play blue next game. This happens to 33 players.

Next game these 33 players refrain from choosing blue, so they bring 2nd game experience to green/red. Blue is left as the "easy" option to get into for new players, so they go blue first game, less experienced.

Blue loses again. Now 33 more players have a feeling that blue is a bad side.

This happens again and again, until a couple of absolute units decide to go blue. They win, because it's absolutely possible with just a bit of team play and coordination.

But blue is still considered "bad" so everyone would rather play red or green.

I've seen so many comments paraphrasing: "I usually play red, but I've seen blue score 0 points" etc.

I think we need to be the solution, not the problem.

Bring your friends to blue. Build the best FOB. Run the best logistical route. Contest the HZ. Win the game.

Go blue.
