New feature 3 of 5 — Creatives as a global Explorer view

"Which creative performs best when used across multiple ads" — one row/card per ASSET, rolled up across every ad and campaign that runs it, all providers. The timeline panel (just locked) rides on top of this view too, plotting per-creative lines.

A

Table-first with thumbnails, gallery toggle (my recommendation)

The ranking workhorse: sortable columns answer "best creative" numerically; the restored small thumbnail gives the visual cue on every row; hover plays the preview; a Gallery toggle switches to browsing mode when the question is visual.

* Our ROAS at creative grain = the blend of the campaigns it runs in (internal attribution is campaign-level — we don't fake per-creative precision; Platform ROAS IS exact per creative). "Ads · Camps" counts click through to the ads using it. A "min spend" guard keeps statistical noise out of the ranking.
✓ sortable ranking = the literal ask ✓ thumbnails restored as the fast visual cue ✓ same checkboxes → timeline emphasis + (Wave 2) bulk pause of all its ads
B

Gallery-first with sort chips

Visual browsing as the default — big cards, metrics beneath; sort chips instead of column headers. Table available behind a toggle.

✓ best for creative-team browsing sessions ✗ weaker for ranking/threshold work — the stated goal of this view

Recommendation: A — this view exists to *rank*, and the gallery is one toggle away for browsing. (The deep-dive Creatives tab keeps its gallery-first default — different question, different default.)
