The chances of randoming any hero twice in a row is like 1/100 or 1% so basically if you've randomed a hundred times then you should EXPECT this to happen.

Its good and random.

they're a tad lower than that

Just randomed bh twice in a row. Just how "random" is random anyway? I get that given the thousands of games played daily in dota 2 as a whole it's bound to happen, but it's not the first "unlikely" random I've had (like randoming a hero I just picked the previous game for example).

id say this is a sign of it being truly random

Metal Gear Rising was really fucking stupid in all the right ways. I mean, that game is fucking dumb and they you fight a US senator on a giant robot(after body slamming the giant robot to death) and then your robot dog brings you a sword.

Damn that game was awesome. Its the right level of summer movie stupid that I can get behind.

Hideo Kojima is pretty fun, but he needs someone to tell him no or budget him. MGS4 is an amazing piece of fan service and really fun, but its also has some of the worst writing in human creation. I mean, all the bosses are super models in giant robot suits that have been brain washed only for war. Like literally thats what they are, its not hyperbole or anything.

+ Show Spoiler +
havnt been too impressed with the writing of the more recent games, presumably because kojima is less involved :/
hoping its a little more evened out this time around.


No, its because you got older and Kojima still writes the same way. He isn't the folks who wrote the last of us.

mgs3 was just better.
the bosses were just as goofily written but the message was way more interesting i think
mgs3 was all about "one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter" while mgr:r was about a good guy murdering hitler. the bad guys in the old mgs games all had tragic backstories about how their drive to make a better world drove them mad. while mgs4 just took that to the emotional extreme by having them all be helpless girls with generic "family was murdered" backstories. totally lame imo
/endrant


MGS5 has something which MGS4 had little off, Big Boss. The whole game will be about someone trying to make the world a better place but instead becoming the villain.

and using horse shit to take down soldiers

Isnt the chance to random a hero::

Hero/total pool of heroes?


And if you are randoming again, does the 1st random counts do to the math or it just resets and so the twice in a row hero is the same chance as getting the 1st hero? I have no clue how randoming works, so im asking.
Go pro or die trying

The chance to random any hero is 100%. You always get a hero. The chance to random that same hero again is 1/number of heroes.

Noone talked about the chance of randomning a specific hero, and then to random that hero again.

Read the post you quoted. It stated ANY hero.

And the guy was surprised he got BH twice. Could have been any hero. He wasn't surprised he got BH the first time, and then surprised again he got it the second time. Only the second roll was "unlikely". He would have had the same reaction no matter the hero that rolled twice.

You could do (1/numberofheroes^2)^2 to represent that it doesnt matter which hero, but its the same thing

Okay time for a lesson
Evenement A: u random bh. Chances : 1/#ofheroes
Evenement B: u random bh again in a row. Chances: 1/#ofheroes²
Lets do it with dices. Chances to get 1 is 1/6. Chances to get 1 again is 1/36 aka 1/6².
Wow only one passed.

It doesnt matter that it was BH. Could have been any other hero.

Its the odds of rolling the same number on a dice twice, not the odds of rolling 1 twice.

Read the comment you replied to. It specifically said ANY hero.
