Field Tilt

What it measures

A team's share of final-third possession — territorial dominance.

The question it answers

Who controls the dangerous third?

In the Variation framework

Field Tilt is the share of final-third possession between the two teams — a cleaner read of territorial control than raw possession. In the framework it tracks whether a conditioning phase is actually pinning the opponent, which is the precondition for a Lure that means anything.
