@brobb how many samples do you need before a hypothesis can hold true?
Here is average of 21 boards when I line up with 3 P, 1 G, 1 Y against ALWAYS a yellow tank. I always ensure that the team is stronger than me on cups though that should be irrelevant.
B - 7.43
G - 7.05
P - 5.67
R - 7.38
Y - 7.47
Also find it very shocking on the numbers that only 2 boards had more than 7 gems for purple. Both at 8.
B - 9
G - 12
P - 2
R - 9
Y - 11
Recently, I have been stacking 5 of the same color. I have seen many starting boards with 2 or 3 of that color. I have also seen many boards with several of that color, and everything in between.
I recently did a war attack, stacking 5 purple heroes, and started with 3 purple tiles, which I eventually got to match. Throughout the match, I saw 6 purple tiles total, before being defeated (just the first 3 matched).
Is the starting board straight up random (minus the no matching tiles)? Maybe
Is it random, with conditions? Probably
Sometimes I start with a bad board, but end up with matches after clearing some.
Will I continue to stack colors to some extent, regardless? Yes. Itās fun watching the tank die from 3 tiles
I will try to screenshot the next 50 or so, or maybe not. My decision will be random!
Thatās not true at all I play my missing colors all the time and the board shifts your damage tiles to the opposite side of the board and leaves you with nothing to finish off your opponent Iāve been beaten with 3 heroās remaining by an opponents 1 hero because the board would not generate damage tiles this isnāt bad luck itās intentional because the entire matching system for this game is crap devs are more concerned about it looking flashy and generating more money then they are about actual game play thereās a reason why this app doesnāt appear in the top 100 apps the money and new players are drying up and people are starting to bail
I constantly raid with only stacked blues and stacked purple, vs red and yellow tanks, respectivelyā¦ I have noticed that I win 1 out of 6 flags on average because of the non-existent tile matchesā¦ My own observation and its hella frustrating!!! There is definitely some merit to this argument of yours @Branwen
Itās usual and happens a lotā¦ I get mad many times too but letās imagine if it wasnāt like thatā¦ no one would lose a raid on offense!
I got so mad I started using rainbow teams, so I always get tiles from some hero. Itās just NOT ENOUGH! I face players with more than 2500~2600 trophies and without stacking colors itās useless unless those incredible boards that make combo after combo (less than 4%).
I know Iām not Brobb (or a moderator ) but hereās my take on it:
That second set of numbers looks like a significant improvement in tile distribution over the first set, and the averages for all colors seem to be trending toward 7 with increasing sample size. To me, that suggests that thereās no bias toward any particular color. I suspect that further data collection will reinforce that conclusion.
When using a double color I didnāt notice much difference.
But when using a triple color, it consistently gives boards where there are almost no gems of that color. But I assume that was just bad luck.
Iāve started a thread about this as well. Brobb suggested someone note 100, that would be a start. I posted at 300 recorded, continuos raids. He said that wasnāt enough. As of this morning Iāve kept notes on 500 continuous raids in the diamond arena(except once in a while I drop to >2400 cups). Iām not keeping track of tile drops because I find them (with no data) to be fair and consistently random. My info is solely based on the amount of tiles on the opening screen. That number after 500, not 300 or 100 or random ones that fit my criteria, but every single one: 4.39. 500 raids 2195 of the color I load up on. At what point should I stop? Not sure but I keep my notebook with my game, and I will continue with the numbers game.
