There is no hit, hit, hit though, since the minion will be dead after the 2nd hit, thus the 3rd will go to another target. Mad Bomber does not overkill.

27 outcomes (less really since once the 3/2 dies to the first 2 hits the number of targets is reduced for the third hit). 3*3

hit, hit, X
miss, hit, hit
hit, miss, hit
=4/27

14.8%

No, S1eth was right. hit, hit, X are actually three distinct outcomes (hit, hit, hit; hit, hit, H1; hit, hit, H2). So it's 7/27

Oh right. Because both faces lead to different outcomes. Mbad.

That's really high.

How is that 7 outcomes and not 6?
Hit, hit, hit face 1
Hit, hit, hit face 2
Hit, face 1, hit
Hit, face 2, hit
Face 1, hit, hit
Face 2, hit, hit

Since he can not overkill or hit himself, those are the only 6 outcomes possible. Each outcome comes with a roughly 3.7% chance leaves you with a 22.2% chance of your minion dying

Edit2: yup, first edit is definitely off. A much easier way to look at it is 6 chances of a total of 26 outcomes (27 minus one which is the hit hit hit one, which we've stated is impossible due to no overkill).
6/26 = 23%.

Edit3: You know what? I'm changing my mind again. Because two of those outcomes have a higher chance of happening due to less targets to hit after the minion dies. That leaves a total of (1÷3÷3÷3×24)+(1÷3÷3÷2×2)= 1 or 100%. For the outcomes above thats then (1÷3÷3÷3×4)+(1÷3÷3÷2×2) = 25.9%.
Final answer. I'm going to bed!

Your third edit is correct Excludos. I've see you have come full circle now.

Just to clarify for anybody curious, hit, hit, hit(face(1_OR_2)) has a (1/3)*(1/3)*(1/2)*2 chance. When the bomber dies you're guaranteed to hit face.

So here's something a little odd that I only just found out. Turns out if a Warrior actually manages to use all of Gorehowl's charges on minions and never swing for the face the weapon doesn't actually break, it just becomes a 0/1 weird. [image loading]

What if you use Spiteful Smith and keep swinging? What happens after the smith dies? Someone test! (I don't have a gorehowl)
edit: nm it just stays at 0 (+2 i guess)

That old token positioning/swapping bug is back for me, and it's bad. Are other people experiencing this/has this been talked about?

Makes sense as well. Basic math is hard >.<

Everyone who was above rank 20 last season got the card backs. You can change them under options. If you don't have them I'm afraid that you never will.

I'm not sure on how the MM system works in HStone. But in SCII, non-ranked do still get matched up against ranked. In theory, this is so the player base doesn't get fragmented and it makes it easier to find games

This is interesting. Could you not tank your mmr in casual and then queue ranked with a lower mmr? I guess you'd probably go back to where you belong quickly but just a thought.

Typically, to grind their daily quests without risking their rank.

In SC2 you have separate MMR for ranked an unranked.

So the unranked player is being matched up with the ranked player based on their ranked MMR? I guess that makes the most sense. So unranked MMR is only used if both are unranked.

You have 2 mmr, the ranked and unranked in sc2. They are used to match you in the playlist you play in.

In hearthstone, your ranked MMR doesn't come into play until you are way up because your rank is more important when matching players. The unranked MMR however is always there and will always try to match you vs similar mmr players in unranked mode.
