Wumpushunter said: Less accurate but still concerning is the chance that her tile will appear in a situation in which it can be automatically matched away right after placement. In 500 observed cases her tile could be matched away directly in about 36% of the times.

Wumpushunter said: If everything was weighted the same scarlet witch should place her auto countdown 1.5% chance in each spot on the board. But over an observational period of 500 placements she did favor the corners by far over this amount. And even the outside edge of the board was overly favored. The inner 28, 29, 36 and 37 square was actually under represented by a large amount.
