A bunch of statistics:
Number of decks submitted: 14
Number of players participating: 11 (kakodrilo, enigma73 and thedrigo did not test decks)
Decks Most Often Seen Played By AI: (this statistic is pure chance)
1) 62 - stroggoi
2) 60 - enigma73 & shantak (tie)
3) 59 - yggdrasil
4) 58 - thedrigo
5) 57 - brandon
6) 56 - cognis
AVERAGE: 52.0 matches played per player
7) 51 - jatill
50 - kakodrilo
9) 45 - scherbchen & aww1979 (tie)
10) 44 - nyktorion & juzamjedi (tie)
11) 37 - salbei
TOTAL: 728 matches played
Salbei clearly got the short end of this stick. He still managed to tie for the win though, because the AI did very well with his deck.
Most Human Player Wins/win percentage: (I could've ranked this according to win percentage instead of # of wins; both are relevant numbers. Swap 5 with 6 and 8 with 9 for the other way)
1) 80/89=89.9% - aww1979
2) 74/83=89.2% - cognis
3) 73/83=88.0% - juzamjedi
4) 66/77=85.7% - nyktorion
5) 60/73=82.2% - jatill
AVERAGE: 57.5 wins, 82.8% win percentage
6) 54/65=83.1% - salbei & yggdrasil (tie)
7) 54/66=81.8% - shantak
44/57=77.2% - brandon
9) 38/48=79.2% - stroggoi
10) 35/49=71.4% - scherbchen
Players high on this rank are good at borrowing decks they have little experience with and doing well. Alternately, it could mean that they got very easy opponents in the gauntlets, but that would take a lot of work to calculate. A low score here could mean you are weak in one major archetype or prefer to play one over another (aggro or control; we had no combo so that one doesn't apply here)
Most 10-0 Gauntlets (playing with any deck):
1) 5 - aww1979, cognis
2) 4 - juzamjedi, nyktorion
3) 3 - salbei, yggdrasil
AVERAGE: 2.5
4) 2 - shantak
5) 1 - brandon, jatill
6) 0 - scherbchen, stroggoi
TOTAL: 28
(same idea as the previous statistic)
Most 10-0 Gauntlets (all players with specific deck):
5 - juzamjedi
4 - salbei, nyktorion, yggdrasil
3 - scherbchen, jatill
AVERAGE: 2.5
2 - stroggoi, thedrigo
1 - cognis
0 - enigma73, kakodrilo, aww1979, snantak, brandon
TOTAL: 28
A high score here means your deck is easy to learn and that it is a good deck. It also means your deck is fairly consistent.
Points Gained by Gauntlet:
70 - yggdrasil
68 - juzamjedi
65 - salbei
61 - nyktorion
57 - shantak
54 - scherbchen
49 - stroggoi, jatill
AVERAGE: 45.1 points
41 - enigma73
38 - thedrigo
27 - kakodrilo
18 - cognis, brandon
17 - aww1979
Good, easy to learn decks score high here. Poor decks and/or difficult to learn decks score poorly.
Points Gained by AI wins:
85 - salbei
80 - stroggoi
75 - jatill
70 - yggdrasil
55 - nyktorion
50 - scherbchen, juzamjedi
45 - aww1979
AVERAGE: 44.6 points
40 - enigma73
30 - thedrigo
20 - cognis
10 - kakodrilo, shantak
5 - brandon
A high score here means the AI is good with your deck, and that humans are weaker playing against that deck, possibly due to combat tricks, metagaming, and things like that.
How far people got in gauntlet with their own deck:
10 - nyktorion, salbei
8 - yggdrasil
7 - shantak
5 - scherbchen, juzamjedi, stroggoi
AVERAGE: 4.9 rounds
2 - aww1979, brandon
0 - jatill, cognis
People at the bottom of this list are clearly honest :p (Players at the top probably are, too
But we cannot doubt jatill's honesty at reporting a zero!)
edit: Corrected Cognis's result in this category; I read off the wrong line, and corrected the average as well. (apparently cognis is honest too
)
Number of times players lost to their own deck:
4 - stroggoi
3 - salbei
AVERAGE: 1.2 losses to their own deck
1 - aww1979, scherbchen, jatill, juzamjedi, nyktorion, shantak
0 - brandon, cognis, yggdrasil
A high score here means your own deck is easy for the AI to play and/or surprised you!
Most AI wins / AI win percentage (sorted by win percentage because that's less random than number of wins, which is partially dependent on # of times the AI got to play the deck)
17/37 = 45.6% salbei
15/51 = 29.4% jatill
16/62 = 25.8% stroggoi
11/44 = 25.0% nyktorion
14/59 = 23.7% yggdrasil
10/44 = 22.7% scherbchen
10/45 = 22.2% juzamjedi
9/45 = 20.0% aww1979
AVERAGE: 16.9% AI win percentage, 11.2 wins
8/60 = 13.3% enigma73
6/58 = 10.3% thedrigo
4/56 = 7.1% cognis
2/50 = 4.0% kakodrilo
2/60 = 3.3% shantak
1/57 = 1.8% brandon
TOTAL: 123 AI wins (out of 728 matches)
This is probably the best indicator of how good the AI is with a particular deck. Clearly, the AI cannot play burn decks at all, as the bottom three scores are the burn decks. The two control decks scored highest, which surprised me a great deal. They were designed heavily with the metagame in mind, contributing to their success.
Highest Individual Deck Score: (just a cool statistic :p)
30 points - Yggdrasil, playing with Nyktorion's deck
Percentage of Points Gained by AI Wins:
72.6% - Aww1979
62.0% - Stroggoii
60.4% - Jatill
53.6% - Salbei
52.6% - Cognis
50.0% - Yggdrasil
49.4% - Enigma73
48.1% - Scherbchen
47.4% - Nyktorion
44.1% - Thedrigo
42.4% - Juzamjedi
AVERAGE = 36.6%
27.0% - Kakodrilo
21.8% - Brandon
14.9% - Shantak
Players at the top of this list designed decks more with the AI in mind. Players at the bottom of this list designed decks that the AI is incompetent with. This statistic shows that the AI sucks with burn decks, and they really skewed the average. It isn't necessarily an indicator of the quality of the deck. (my own is at the top yet I only got 10th place) All the prizewinners had at least 50% here, indicating that if you want prizes, focus on how the AI uses your deck.
