Wouldn't the fact that you got super lucky with crits make it less likely for you to get super lucky with the lottery? If they both have a 0.0002 percent chance then then both happening to you is like 0.00000004% chance.

I don't think that's how statistics work. I haven't taking a statistics class yet though so I don't know.

We need to have a discussion about that. I was under the impression Neo gave us permission to use the GD to talk about streams and such. I have no problem with Beyonder's thread and actually think that might be a good idea to keep bumped when new scrims happen, but realistically I dont think there is anything wrong with discussing scrims here, especially since a lot of concepts from scrims tend to make good discussion.

I have a simple thought-experiment for you guys:

Suppose that there's a special option that says this:

For the next 99 games, you will start the game with 1 less AD
On the 100th game, you will start the game with 50 extra AD

Would you take it?


This is a good way to think about it to an extent, and yet it isn't quite accurate because so far everyone has only been calculation damage for auto attacks.

there are a lot of champs who have abilities that scale with AD and not with autos. I would take the crit rune with champs like gp, trynd, and most AD carries whose damage sources scale with crit.

On panth, jarv, talon, riven the extra AD goes a lot further than just autos since a lot of their damage scaling doesn't utilize crit.

Isn't this pretty easily math-able? 1 crit red is .93% crit chance, 1 crit AD rune is .95 attack damage. With .93% crit chance, the expected number of attacks to get a crit is around 107. In 107 attacks, .95 AD is giving you 102 total damage dealt. Assuming you have Lethality in the offense tree, this makes the crit rune worth it if you average > 92 damage on your attacks that can crit.

That said, there's always the possibility that you waste your crit on a creep or something.

We dont know exactly how crit works. I dunno about you guys, but it sure as shit felt like I crit a hell of a lot back when there was the 4% mastery.

Well I suspect that League normalizes its random number generation which would, in general, lead you to expect a crit faster.

You are right, they don't work that way. Since winning the lottery and critting are independent, the probability of one happening after the other has happened is exactly the same as if the other didn't happen.

Unless there are mysterious forces at work here that link an unlikely crit and scratch tickets. Not sure about that.

Yup. That math is confusing two independent events. If you crit someone in a game, it's totally unrelated to buying a lottery ticket. Therefore if the probability of winning the lottery is some chance with p% of success, you still only have p% of success whatever happens in your game of LoL.

If you are concerned with the probability of both critting someone in a game AND winning the lottery concurrently, then yes you would multiply the two probabilities. If you're looking at "what's the probability I win the lottery given the fact I crit someone in a game of LoL" it's still p%. The lottery wo/man cares not for your GP crits.

Of course, this is a classical interpretation. A Bayesian or Epistemic analysis is beyond the scope of this General Discussion Thread and the author recommends further reading for those interested in these topics.

However, if you don't buy a lottery ticket unless you crit, then your chance of winning the lottery goes up infinitely since you can't win if you don't play.

What's the general opinion on a mastery spec for support? I've been running 0/23/7 but it seems like some of the streamers I see playing support run some kind of utility spec. I don't really like utility in the new mastery trees personally.

LoL RNG doesn't care about statistics though. I'm not sure how it works, but it basically functions like this:

10% crit, first hit no crit. Now you have like 11% crit rate. No crit, your critrate keeps on rising until you crit. Then it lowers to like 6% or whatever. If you crit a second time it lowers down to like 2% or whatever. If you don't crit for like 40 hits in a row with 10% crit chance the crit chance's going to be really high, probably even at 50%.

Again I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but this is how the RNG in LoL works, still normalizing the numbers at the actual crit percentage over ~1000 attacks.

If you like thinking coinflip, it likes to make it more like HTHTHTHTHT instead of HHHHTTHTTT




Though its true that the chances of the lottery ticket and crit are independent, the overall chance of both happening can still be calculated in that way and it is correct

Because she needs levels to not suck ass. Also you can't build her standard AD build because then if you ever try to cougar form into a fight you'll get blown up instantly.
