Not as much lag as you, I guess... (Destiny)

So: 3 close games, 3 blowouts. Definitely not the pattern we've had since September.

Last night was my first IB experience this week, but I played a lot. I ran my numbers for fun. For the stats I'm defining a blowout as a spread of more than 6000 points.

------------------------
Data:

26 total games
9 wins
10 good matches
16 blowouts

• 6 wins
  
• 10 losses

------------------------
Percentages

Win rate: 35%

Good match rate: 38%

Blowout win rate: 38%

------------------------
Analysis

• A win rate of 35% means I was was redeeming about 2 medallions every 3 games. That feels a lot better than previous IB experiences but I haven't run any data to compare them. Overall I can live with that.
  
• The rate of getting good matches was just over 1 in 3. That seems unacceptable.
  
• On the other hand, my win rate in blowout matches was pretty much the same as my overall win rate. I think blowouts in riff happen more easily because it just takes about two unanswered scores to produce this spread. If you have a relatively close game where you're only down by one detonation, it quickly becomes a blowout if the other team manages to score. Perhaps these numbers are a bit misleading as a result.
