You are absolutely correct which is why i said

I suspect there will be people crying out to nerf an already useless kerby and to nerf kraken while we are at it…

I base this supposition on things like this

Random or not - the 40% stated on the card is a fallacy unless it averages out to 40 by the amount of time they don’t devour when you use them. Cause my impression is that when I use them they are far low than 40% but once again it’s an impression.

I tried to ask questions about accuracy and sample size and the response was and i am paraphrasing “my numbers are accurate and sample size is fine because i said so”

When you title a thread “lets talk numbers” and then refuse to actually talk numbers all you are looking for is an echo chamber populated by only those who agree with you

Those are the threads that tend to start “nerf the world” threads which is why i took issue with the whole thing

And btw i didnt start out worked up this was my first post on that thread

> Ok… Thanks for tracking devours and sharing your results. I have a few questions… Did you include times when kraken or kerby killed the target with spell damage? Did you include times when target had impervious? Do you see a trend? Do you think 110 events is a large enough sample size? Did you also track other events with the same proc% ?
