I win 100% of my 5v2s and 5v3s.

I think they all average out to what they should, 98 and 91% respectively. I think it just has to do with the fact that since I constantly win my rolls, then those losses have to go somewhere else.

overall the odds are the same

p.s. I am a beast at kdice.

so in 157 games you won all 5v3 and 5v2 ...

I lost a 7v3 the other day..... now THAT HURT.
Only supposed to happen 5 times in 1000 rolls, I guess I got lucky.

It's all perception obviously. Since 99% of that time I attack with more dice than the other guy (except the 8v8 naturally), then 98% of the time when I lose it's an upset.

And I do get upset.

The other day I saw a guy lose an 8v3. So just be glad you're not him ;)

And yes it really is all perception. Recently I lost two 8v6 in a row. Then in the next game I won numerous 8v8s. It all balances out.

ryan had said that the probability is the same as before. nothing has changed. it's human nature that you pay more attention to your 'unlucky' rolls than lucky ones. have you counted how many time you won 8v7, 6v5, 5v4, etc.?

I blame the recent glut of "bad luck attacks" on two factors:

1. The new scoring system encourages more early round aggression so you are going to see a lot more non-8v8 attacks.
2. The scoring reset means that everyone that had gotten used to playing with good quality opponents, had to deal with hundreds of people that have no idea what they're doing and will make unconventional attacks. When these win (or lose) you tend to notice.
