joust as a mechanic will flop unless the base minion is acceptable without winning the joustit needs to win ties

The data would be a little easier to digest if the decks were sorted by average card cost ascending.

This 32% with face hunter mirror is pretty interesting... when you only have 3 different mana costs in the deck, both player will often draw the same. Also any 1 cost minion simply can't win unless...

These simulations are neat, but it's really not too hard to compute the true probabilities. Probably a bit easier, even.

This is really cool, thanks for that, I'll keep this in mind (Although I think Master Jouster is the only relevant Jouster card right now, but that's besides the point I suppose). Thanks for your work...

I genuinely don't think any of these cards will be playable except possibly for the Gadgetzan one since it isn't a disastrous outcome to lose the joust on it, being a 1-drop, and is a reasonable...

As mentioned above, a tie is a loss. The defender has the advantage.

Oh wait I'm stupid. If the minion's cost is the same, you don't win the Joust, that's why it's under 50%. My bad.

It's a pretty big deal that you lose ties, especially in face hunter, where there are only 3 different possible costs for minions in the deck.

Is there a more up to date thread like this? I am theorycrafting an upgrade to one of my decks where I am debating on using a couple joust cards or equivalent non-joust cards. The deck is a heavy...

Joust will shine specially in modified Handlock builds with Frost Giants for example. And new Giant-based decks. Something like Inspire/Joust/Giants Control Paladin can be a thing

I really want to see a legit Healadin with the new Tuskarr that jousts for 7 health. If you drop the Shieldbots and keep the Chows (or the other way around) plus swapping out the Aldors for Humility, I...

There's a slight wrinkle to the stats, in that when you start a game, you mulligan for low cost cards. So, when the time comes to play a joust card, especially a 5+ mana card, more of the low cost...

I don't know if you're interested in doing this again but is there any way you could add Freeze and Giants Mage into the mix?

As expected: joust could work in ctrl warrior or handlock, but I'm not sure that you would want any of them in those decks anyway. The main contender is probably heal bot jouster in handlock, but you...

Master Jouster in Ramp Druid is going to be nuts. Especially if you can get an early Wild Growth/Innervate/Darnassus Aspirant out.

Could you update with an overall average for each deck archetype?

Maybe the new joust cards can be played in a Malygos shaman deck, since they run mostly spells? Now that they have a new card draw spell, they could remove most of their low mana cost minions.
