So honestly...the battle isn't all that interesting atm...but I have never seen what just happened, and I'll bet a lot of you haven't either. My asn attacked two witches, one from the side and one from the front and they both blocked! What are the odds of that? I'd like someone to calculate that...I think I'm still gonna end up winning this one, but that was insane!!

2 witches; one frontal one side. Assuming they're both off base blocking it's 1/5 * 1/10 = 1/50, or 2%. Pretty shit odds, if you ask me.

Eh. It seems like all of the witches are blocking a lot more than usual. I get blocked when they are ready to attack, or when they have a 1 turn wait left.

I can one up that.
I was fooling around in a game with someone, and we were both using the dual BR.
His BR's were both -44, and right next to each other.
So, I used my BR and took a swing at both
And they both blocked!
.01 x .01 = .001 =.1% lol

Well, I just gout out of a grey game, and his cleric blocked my scout shot with his book.

This one is serious... like once my Assassin was in the middle of four witches all.. to the side and the Assassin attacked and all of them blocked...! Whats that?
10% x 10% x 10% x 10% = 0.01%... 1 in 10,000

well those are intense but once this guys 3 knights all blocked from the side. i then wait one turn (healed after his knight hit my assasin) and then 2 blocked and one hit but what are the chances?!?!?!??!!

A 1/50 chance doesn't mean it should never happen.
It means it WILL happen 1/50 times on average.
So when that situation happens, if it was done 300 times, they both should block 6 times on average.
Sure it's unlikely, and unlucky that it was you.
But it must happen at some point.
It doesn't have to happen at some point. Just the chances that it never happens even if you do it infinitely many times approaches zero... But RNGs aren't actually random, so it will happen. Just sucks to be you.
Although once in a dropless game, my Scout had a totally of 15 blocks, only counting the ones occurring in endgame. That really pissed the other guy off.

nice but neither of those compares to this:
once my furgon got so angry at the pyro's(3,4 if you count the dsm) for killing his shrubs, he buried them alive in shrubs :) :P

It doesn't have to happen at some point.
Actually that's exactly what it means.
That it WILL happen 1/50 times on average.
You should study the laws of probability.

Ask The Pirate.
It doesn't have to. At infinity, it happens that often on average, but after any given number of trials, it may not have happened. With infinitely decreasing odds, it can delay happening indefinitely. :p
