Elements Opening Hand Simulator

[Xenocidius]

This nifty little program will simulate a number of different opening hands for a given deck.

>> Open the Opening Hand Simulator in a new window << (http://xenocidius.webs.com/openinghandsimulator.htm)

Basically, you copy and paste a deck code, enter the amount of games you would like to run, and it will run a simulation, then return the number of games in which it drew no quanta generation in the opening hand, number of games in which it drew no 0-cost cards in the opening hand, number of auto-mulligans that occurred, and individual stats for each card in the deck.

The way the opening hand is chosen is that it picks 7 random cards, performs a mulligan if there are no 0-cost cards in hand, then picks an extra card if you lost the coin toss.

Note: Quanta generation only includes 0-cost quanta generation. This includes pillars, pendulums, marks, Nova, creatures like Ray of Light and Gnome Gemfinder, and in a special instance, will also count Immolation as quanta generation IF you also draw a 0-cost creature.

It can handle 10000 games pretty soundly, but can get quite slow with significantly higher numbers.

Thoughts? Queries? Suggestions?

wow i didnt know this existed until ur post about requesting a tool this is pretty nice.. is it pretty accurate?
say u do 100 games in this.. and keep track of 100 games manually ? just curious.. i like it either way.

[Xenocidius]

Unless there's a bug or I used the wrong algorithm it should be 100% accurate.

Note that results can vary depending on the sample size. About 10000 games is enough for a relatively accurate result.

[russianspy1234]

so does this use a regular random number generator or the one elements uses?

[Xenocidius]

Ah ... it uses Javascript's RNG. It's pretty much the same as Actionscript's RNG but without the evil.

[bored_ninja777]

well great.. i shall use this more often.. i was wondering why i had issues with starting draws.. i added 2 quatum towers and it said i should get 2 per starting hand instead of the 1.03 or w/e it was i was getting and it does in fact seem to have helped. thanks for these tools

Is this still up to date?

To mod:  In any case, it could be moved to the tools section.

It would also be very nice of you, if you could repair your tools.
