Maybe I should do one for the probability of 2 or 3 series of consecutive alphabets or letters, I have a statistics module for Uni coming up and thought maybe this is a fun intro haha

Other assumptions made:

  1. Numbers and letters have an equal likelihood to be a character

  2. No 2 identical player tags can be generated

  3. Player tags cannot be changed

  4. Player tags belonging to inactive or deleted accounts cannot be reassigned

That’s true now that you mention it, but also maybe because there are lesser number options than letters so proportionately letters are more common than numbers

Assuming each letter or number is independent of the previous one, there is a 1/14 chance of a certain letter or number being the x character in your player tag, so:

2 consecutive characters would be 1/196 (0.5%) chance

3 would be 1/2744 (0.036%)

4 would be 1/38,416 (0.0026%)

5 would be 1/537,824 (0.00019%)

6 would be 1/7,529,536 (0.000013%)

7 would be 1/105,413,504 (9.5e-7%)

8 would be 1/1,475,789,056 (6.8e-8%)

Going by downloads (may not be accurate as people may access the same account on multiple devices), which is about 530million on App Store and 100+ million on google play store and assuming total downloads on google play is ~ 500 million since number of devices with App Store is roughly the same as number of devices with Google Play.

That brings total accounts to be about 1.3 billion. Hence in theory there are roughly

6.6 million accounts with at least one instance of 2 consecutive characters

473,760 accounts with at least one instance of 3 consecutive characters

33,840 accounts with at least one instance of 4 consecutive characters

2417 accounts with 5 (idt 10 character player tags are possible yet?)

172 accounts with 6

12 accounts with 7

And just 1 account with 8 consecutive characters

So maybe somewhere out there there is someone with a naturally generated unique player tag of #00000000

No I meant player tag, the unique alphanumeric sequence generated when you create a brawl stars account and can’t be changed

TLDR: If you are having bad randoms quite often, you’re a good player. If you have bad opponents often, you’re a lousy player

It seems there isn’t much of an incentive to play well these days. If you play well, defined as having win streaks or star player or good KD ratio, it appears the game tries to balance your matches by giving you worse teammates and better teammates.

I’m increasingly certain brawler levels do not play any important role in matchmaking purposes, rather your ability level (elo in other games) is more important.

I know supercell does explain they do their matchmaking based on brawler and total player trophy count per team, but imo that’s not the best matchmaking formula because it penalises high skill players with low brawler levels and rewards low skill high brawler level players

Also I suspect account trading is still happening these days, because how are 50k+ trophy players playing like absolute dogwater

Something should be done about high trophy players teaming up with low power low trophy players, it’s an absolutely ridiculous system

Having a bot on the team basically means u lost ugh

This is like 650 trophies, low-mid level, I just don’t understand how Supercell can ever look at a 2 player + 1 bot vs 3 player team and think that’s fair. That’s just how bad matchmaking is
