Hey there!
Statistics are always statistics. In my opinion (and according my experience ) the best thing is to play something you are comfortable with. Maybe that line has a less win rate but you will playing relaxed, enjoying and knowing what are you doing.
In researching various openings, the only indication of an opening's performance is often the win rate. However, this rarely assists me (and I am guessing many others) as the win rates for openings would lead into a vast range of different playing styles. Furthermore, these statistics are only from high-level games. Thus, in applying an opening to my style I can only practise it. I am fine with attempting the various lines, as it is a time investment I am willing to make given the opportunity. With consideration of my opinions on this, should I give much merit to win rates?
