You suggested that since skill level is forever changing, one can never meaningfully answer these types of questions. Yes win rates change but I would think they often reach a state where they kind of plateau so that any changes are relatively minor. And, there is always the idea of a current or now result.
I figured that I should look at players Return on investment ROI if there is one. If 10% rake is per game, 10% roi would be breakeaven. Maybe not exactly what I was asking myself, but It kind of explains what I tried to understand
