Right. So a this guy challenges me, and first turn, he lands frontal attack on my knight. I strike him with my lightning ward, and then his scout gets a frontal attack on my scout. So I go over to his knight, and try to hit it from the side, and he blocks it. Next turn, he manages to get a side hit on my knight.
In the end, it didn't matter, since I had 3 muddies on the field and he was just beginning. Actually, he begged me for mercy during the Furgon drop and was eventually kicked out for spamming and saying "Plz" about 100 times, but it makes me wonder...
Do you have an increased chance of landing an attack when your opponent has stronger units on the field? I know it doesn't say so when you go to attack, but in most games I play, it seems like the weaker players get almost every unlikely attack, and I hardly get any.
Has anyone else noticed this?

When was this game at? Cause last night I played a game and the blocking system was a joke. (Note all the things stated are for blockable attacks) Every frontal hit on knights and scouts was successful, there was 12 of them. Every side block on pyro's and DMW was blocked, there was 8 total (2 for each pyro and one for a dmw, 3 for another DMW). Every side attack on knights was blocked except one, there was 9 of them. Dragon blocked 5 side shots throughout the game (7 were aimed at the side). Assassin was hit 4 times from the front, but blocked 5 side shots, (intermingled).
The blocking wasn't unfair, as it was still distributed to both of us, although i was inclined to take less frontal assaults since i was convinced it was just some stroke of luck that all these blocks occured and that my next attack was in no way dependant on previous ones. (Excluding the little chance tricks). By the end of the game I was baffled, just the sheer odds of the frontal hits alone was incredible.
The game was against Chivo on great lakes. He's gold, i'm grey.

Yeah I wasn't complaining, I won afterall, I was just saying it seemed like the luck was rather unorthodox, I thought maybe they might have been changing something with the blocking system and it had altered the games played at that time.
The chance of the knights blocking 12 times alone was:
0.0000004096%
Add in the mages and it was
0.00000000000268435456%
Then theres the assassin and dragon and scouts...

That's really amazing Jesus. You have a much better chance at winning the lottery than that happening.

It seems to me that the knights are blocking alot less on the side shots, infact it seems everything is... :( like the other guys said :D

This game was a few days ago on the Legends server during the Furgon Drop. The person I was fighting was a beginner. I'm just surprised he managed to get so many direct attacks in. I thought Seed evened out the blocking system to make it more fair. Or did he try to balance it out based on who has the stronger army?

No one really has an advantage on the luck factor. About the weaker players not getting blocks, that happens but it is also vice-versa.

To a certain extent. Put it this way: he had a basic starting line-up, and I had three Mud Golems.
