    Quick maths: 12/53 x 11/52 x 10/51 x 9/50 x 8/49 = 95040/34436220 = 792/2869685 = 0.00027598847 = 0.028% chance of drawing 5 swamps off the top off a keep with 3 in the opener. That's roughly one out of 3600 games. If you played this deck and had and opener with 3 swamps 10 times every day its likely you would see that happen once a year.

      Bro. I’m pretty bad at math. Would you mind explaining explains how you got that formula?
      Like why 12/53x11/52 and so on.
      I’m just trying to learn.

      @@KevinC137 the 12/53 and so on means the chance to draw one of the 12 swamp left in the deck out of the 53 cards left in the library. you then multiply it by the "second event" which is now 11 swamps in 52 cards and so on (5 times in this case since he drew 5 consecutive swamps). Shuffler is fine.

      @@KevinC137 so u basically multiply each chance of drawing any swamp from the library. first chance is 12 swamps out of 53 cards which u multiply with the second chance that now is 11 swamps out of 52 cards and so on for 5 times (the number of time he draw the consecutive swamps) and you get (after multipling for 100) the % chance of that event happening. Shuffler is fine.

      @user-yh3eg7sm8u 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      he calculated dependent probabilites. every remaining swamp/every other card in deck left+the remaining swamps. then you have to multiplicate with every following event. therefore after the first drawn swamp 11 left instead of 12 and 52 left cards instead of 53.
      you could do the same with odds simply by dividing throu every other card leaving out the swamps. odds are chances against failures. probability are not quite the same.
      nice games yow

    @FrenchyMcToast 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I'm not very good at evaluating cards within a format, but over the years I've gotten better at evaluating cards individually. What exactly is wrong with Deep Cavern Bat? This is the first time I've seen it but Duress was played in every black deck it was legal to play it in so what about attaching it to a body makes it undesirable? What am I missing?

    • @alexanderblixt1221
      @alexanderblixt1221 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Mostly the fact that it's easily killable and they get the card back when it dies. Cards similar to the bat have seen play before, to varying effectiveness, but they are certainly more unreliable than cards like duress since the stolen card isn't gone for good.
