Slaagspercentages

Slaagspercentages is a statistical metric used to express the proportion of successful attempts within a defined set of trials, where a “slaag” (strike or hit) is counted as a success. The term is used in contexts such as combat sports analytics, martial arts training, and certain gaming communities to quantify effectiveness in execution.

Calculation is straightforward: slaagspercentage equals the number of successful strikes divided by the total number of attempts, multiplied by 100 to yield a percentage. The metric can be computed for an individual athlete, a team, a specific technique, or a particular time period. Variants may include per-opponent breakdowns, per-round breakdowns, or aggregated values across events.

Data collection relies on consistent event logging. Clear definitions of what constitutes a slaag are essential—whether marginal touches count, how to treat blocked or missed attempts, and how to handle partial successes. Because the denominator (total attempts) can vary widely, small sample sizes may produce volatile percentages, and smoothing or reporting confidence intervals is common practice.

Applications of slaagspercentages include evaluating efficiency, guiding coaching decisions, and benchmarking performance across peers. In e-sports and combat sports analytics, it helps compare players’ decision-making and accuracy under similar conditions, and can be used alongside related metrics such as overall win rate, damage per attempt, or conversion rate.

Limitations include sensitivity to sample size, lack of context around the quality or difficulty of attempts, and the possibility of misleading impressions if used in isolation. Therefore, slaagspercentages are typically interpreted together with other performance indicators.
