This doesn't map with my experience either. I used to do desktop work for a living so was removing viruses every day. I found quite a few infections that most would miss, but MBAM found. I can't speak to what it's like in % terms, but it was certainly good at finding some of the harder ones other tools would miss. This was three years ago though... maybe it's gone downhill.

As an aside, I found SuperAntiSpyware to be in the same category (good at finding some of the worst infections that my other tools would miss).
