Amazing content, thank you for everything you do!

Good work! Love to see you spread statistic-literacy! It does leave me wondering if there is any correlation between the Number of Bewitching Spirit in a deck and the amount of tears shed at a table

This is the perfect reason to wanna get good at math. :) I loved this video, please keep making dope content

Another possible factor for the deck's stats could be natural variance as well. While there is some inherent variance to card games, a deck like leblanc could struggle the games where they don't get the ball rolling early, this will result on a subset of players underperforming relative to their expected winrate and others overperforming.

Of course, in the long run this is not a factor but we're dealing with samples that are not that large and we have already established that the deck has a high skill floor, as such, a few competent pilots underperforming for 2 events in a row would be enough to drag the sample down.

I am biased but this also matches my own perception of the deck, I think it is strong, but also inconsistent. The games where LB gets everything feel almost hopeless for your opponents and our human selective memory could lead to us remembering those games most vividly leading us to believe it is better than it actually is

consistency > speed

This is amazing content. Thank you for providing not just the data, but possible insights.

Another insane video from my GOAT 🔥

When overlaying Graphs it would be nice to see the trendlines in different colors for different Legends. Otherwise its hard to follow, especially when they intersect. 5:27 for reference.

Anotjer banger video. Good stuff!

Ok i wasnt a subscriber but after popping up in my feed for a second time with another data driven awesome video, I am one now. Keep it up, this is great content.

Goated content ❤

I can hear the balatro music!!!

First video of yours I've seen but this is right up my alley. Keep it up, easy subscribe!

I love listening to stats and this topic is one I am constantly faced with. Riftbound has an abundance of decks.

I would like to know if there's a way to correlate this data with objective deck difficulty, since I think the general populations perceived skill floor for some decks are wrong. Just a thought. 😊

42 my fav num cause it s the answer

There's also the issue of what deck lists Leblanc players are running. Baited Hook is an expensive piece and I would say from experience it's the harder variant but the most powerful form of Leblanc. Don't know from this RQ specifically but from prior data you would see a lot of non hook list with rather mid results and even hooks lists with really experimental unit selection. Even if there's a best deck list, the legend itself allows for a lot of build variety and experimentation that probably further skews data. Leblanc was the first deck I ever picked up and I loved it, very much my style of deck, but I swapped out cause it felt down right mean spirited for locals. So many times I would give up to 6 or so points just to setup a board state that entirely prevented my opponent from doing anything. Incredible fun deck. I think it's also a deck to always be watching, right now it can be bricky due to the amount of high costs units you run, as that lists starts getting more good choices while creating a smoother curve the deck will become very dangerous. Currently the deck can loose to itself if you don't know how to mulligan properly.

To answer the question if more skilled pilots are the cause of the hogh end of the winrate. It could be interesting to compare the winrate of a pool of players that performed well (lets say made day 2) on a previous event that now picked up the deck vs a pool of players that have been playing the deck for a while.
Similarly I would be interested in the trend in winrate of players who have been playing the deck for a long time or across multiple rq’s

This channel made me a data junkie.

My favorite number is 69. You know why 😎
