Melee tournament Champion of Champions Update 1

OH MAN, WHAT JUST HAPPENED

Some real surprises there Gary. First let's look at the top 10 Heroes
from Round 1. Remember these guys had to fight anyone and everyone! Just
count those morningstars and broadswords: 7 in the top 10! And just look
at our top fighter from this round: It's 077, who won 8183 of his 10,700
fights for an ass-whooping 76.48% winning percentage!

077 ST 13 DX 11(11) MORNINGSTAR NO_ARMOR SMALL_SHIELD 8183 76.48 081 ST
13 DX 11(10) MORNINGSTAR NO_ARMOR LARGE_SHIELD 8019 74.94 073 ST 12 DX

MORNINGSTAR LEATHER LARGE_SHIELD 7610 71.12

And not much armor there either.

No, there sure isn't. Say can you show us some graphs and statistics
and stuff?

Sure thing Gary! Take a look at this. Here I've plotted winning
percentage as a function of Hero ST and adjDX. The redder the better!
Also you can see the effects of armor for the different Heroes. The
topmost diagonal all have the maximum DX for their ST, that is to say,
just a small shield if their weapon allows it, or no armor. The bottom-
most diagonal are all wearing plate, and if their weapon allows it, a
large shield.

Wow! Do I see some holes in the graph?

Well, Gary, there are some combinations of adjDX you just can't achieve.
Like for a Hero of ST8 there is no combination of armor and shield to
give him adjDX of 11.

Any other surprises?

Yes -- how about this one: Hero 108 has just squeaked into the next
round. He's a burly ST16 with pike axe, plate, and an adjDX of 2!!

Wow, how does the fellow keep standing!

Don't know Gary, but with a winning percentage of 55.27% he's done just
enough to "stay standing" in this competition.

I see what you did there!
