Just to chip in here on what’s considered a “lucky event”, Sirrian posted a few months back a list of events we consider “lucky”:

> [@Dear devs, please fix your cheating AI on console](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/dear-devs-please-fix-your-cheating-ai-on-console/20562/47):
>
> For the record:  
> b) We define a “lucky” drop as one of the following events (relative weighting is show in brackets):
> 
> A Skull drops in to form a 4+ Skull match, when that skull was not previously visible on the board (5 pts)  
> A Gem drops in to form a 4+ match, when that gem was not previously visible on the board (3 pts)  
> A Skull drops in to a space where the opponent then immediately gets a 4/5-of-a-kind Skulls (4 pts)  
> A Gem drops in to a space where the opponent then immediately gets a 4/5-of-a-kind (2 pts)  
> A Skull Gem drops in to set up a Skull match for the opponent (3 pts)

And to reinforce what Salty said, the effect is a limiter on the AI getting overly lucky. Luck is never “created” for the AI.
