Split pay 50/50 with @Eldorian

For as long as the league has existed there have been certain truths we hold dear. These truths stand without question or doubt. They are the very pillars this league is built on. Without them, this whole glorious enterprise may come crashing down and the league may fold. Over time some truths have been added, brought to us by various league prophets. Below are just a handful of our highly regarded truths

71 Endurance or the Bench You Shall Warm



Today I am here to inform you the unthinkable has happened. We have all been deceived. The very foundation of the league is cracked and everything built upon it is doomed to fail. Truly we live in the darkest timeline.

While reviewing the testaments handed down from the Almighty Sim themselves, the prophet Goat Tank made a startling discovery. Eons ago they translated the word of the Sim to say ‘Thou Shalt Prioritize 71 Endurance’ when in fact that is not what it said. A bit of mud obscured the text which in fact read ‘Thou Shalt Prioritize 60 Endurance’. The prophet Goat Tank rushed to confer with the scribes to further confirm if this was the will of the sim. After much study and translation, it was deemed to be true. 60 Endurance is the benchmark, not 71. Shocked by this innocent mistake which misled the entire league, wasting perhaps thousands of TPE and perhaps causing the league to fold in the near future, Goat Tank could only mutter the works, “lol woops”

---------

Fancy writing (and desperate cash grab) aside, a look at DDSPF 2020 says that there is a benchmark for endurance at 60, not 71. Somewhere along the line (pretty early along the line), that benchmark got confused to be 71. That’s right, the entire league has been spending 25 extra TPE into endurance for virtually no reason. I did a good bit of testing in DDSPF21 to confirm the benchmark is at 60 instead of 71 and testing does indeed seem to confirm. Goat Tank realized this a few weeks ago  so give credit to them for finding it. With something this big we decided it’d be best to get out to the whole league instead of hoarding this info with ourselves. Tho not gunna lie, it’s been hilarious the past few weeks. In the end though we don’t want to let rookies be misled into prioritizing 71 endurance in their 250 TPE builds for maybe a slight advantage. If you have any questions contact me on discord.

Further testing is needed to determine exactly how important it is for each position and what exactly it does for each individual player. What I’ve done is simply test that if changes win rates when set various numbers and it definitely does.

TLDR: It’s 60 endurance, not 71

Note: I wrote this article a month ago and don’t want to re edit, so sorry if somethings out of date

If you've never asked that question, do you really sim league?

Wait also did they write a custom function to get a random integer between two bounds? I'm pretty sure that's a basic import in almost any programming language.

I find it weird that the game decides on a score and then sims weird plays to get to that outcome.
