bansa jumps up the board after coming second with a Blue starter. Persephone enters on the higher end of the board after a strong performance with MonoGreen (I have no match data yet from before her hiatus).

The main difference here is that P1 MonoPurple is considered to take a beating from P2 MonoGreen (2.4-7.6). This is because the matchup didn’t have much evidence before, and CAMS19 had the following relevant matches:

  • Unity [Balance/Growth]/Present vs. Legion [Anarchy]/Growth/Strength, Legion wins
  • FrozenStorm [Future/Past]/Finesse vs. Unity [Balance/Growth]/Present, Unity wins
  • Unity [Balance/Growth]/Present vs. Persephone MonoGreen, Persephone wins
  • FrozenStorm [Future/Past]/Finesse vs. charnel_mouse [Balance]/Blood/Strength, charnel_mouse wins

All P2 wins.

Current monocolour Nash equilibrium:
P1: Pick Black or Red at 16:19.
P2: Pick Black or White at 6:1.
Value: About 5.5-4.5, slightly P1-favoured.
Slight change in overall matchup, both players favour Black much less than before.

If the turn order is unknown, then both players have the same equilibrium strategy: pick Black, all the time, since it outperforms all the other monodecks when averaged over turn order.

Next update should be for Metalize’s data.
