Introduction
Ever wanted to know how many cascades are caused by a surgical strike? What about what the probability is for activating Blade’s thirst passive assuming that you avoid red matches for levels 4 and 5? There have been some simple scripts written for calculating the odds of some basic statistics such as the expected number of tiles matched from Loki’s illusion, but up until this point, there hasn’t been a dedicated program that would take more complicated variables such as cascades and board position into account. In order to do this, we basically need to recreate the MPQ game engine from scratch, and well, I’ve had some time on plane rides to and from break to start writing that up. The current version is semi-stable enough that it’s stable enough to produce accurate…ish results, so I’ve decided to publish what I currently have. The simulator isn’t complete enough to fully simulate a game just yet, but I figure that posting these results would hopefully start some discussion and help me debug the program. Specifically, the Loki stats look a little high, but I’m not sure if that’s because of a bug in my code or if the results are actually right: having other peoples data (specifically on how many times it does not result in any matched tiles) would greatly help with this.
(Source Code Here: https://github.com/NorthernPolarity/MPQSimulator)
Current Simulator Status:
Imagine MPQ without any crit tiles or anything pertaining to damage, and thats basically the state of what my simulator can do right now. This means that cascades and match-4s destroying entire rows are all currently supported in the simulator.
Destroy tile and swap tile abilities are currently the only abilities that are supported right now.
Simulation Details:
For each simulation run, I construct a new, valid initial board, and then simulate the ability used on that board. Each simulation is run 200,000 times and averaged out to the numbers that you see here.
Remember that a match-4 destroys an entire row of tiles, which is 8 destroyed tiles.
For destroy tile abilities, these numbers are the tiles destroyed from ensuing cascades and matches, NOT including the tiles destroyed from casting the ability itself.

Blue brings us Infiltration, which works to power her other two abilities. This ability acts much like Doctor Doom’s Technopathic Strike in that it converts tiles from one color to another. In this case, Raven changes a certain number of basic Red, Green, and Yellow tiles to Purple and Black ones. Higher levels of the ability increase the number of tiles affected. With this, Mystique can better control the incoming damage the opponents are able to put out, since those colors she converts are the ones most often used in directly damaging abilities.

Adding support for abilities that destroy tiles in a particular pattern at random (X-Force). Implementing crit tiles. **The Distant Future Goals**: Accounting for match 5 potential after cascades (the idea being that after you use an ability, if the resulting board has a match-5 available, then that should be counted as part of the cascade since the player can just perform the match-5 and continue cascading). Programming an AI so we can simulate full matches. Simulating damage dealt and taken. Simulating more accurate board states (average board a player sees probably has a higher density of TU tiles since we tend to not match TU tiles). Support for board tile types (attack, defense, etc) Super crazy idea - you take a picture of your game just before you want to use say GSBW and send it to MPQSimulator, who will then tell you exactly where to place the tiles to optimize tiles destroyed / cascade potential. **<span style="font-size: 150px">Contributors</span>** **HUGE** thanks to eeeeeee, who has done a ton of refactoring on the code and implementing of new features.</span> </span> </span> </span> </span> </span>
