Congratulations, and welcome back to our side.  It's clear that we need you.  (c:

The Herd played a respectable 5.46 PR for an "Expert" rating from XG (we need to get under 5 to be rated "World Class")  Julia played an amazing 2.22 PR or "World Champ" rating.


Overall, we threw away .666 inequity, or about two-thirds of a single game, while Julia only wasted .270 or about a quarter of a game.  Meanwhile Diane's dice sucked a full 3.46 in equity away from us.  Sometimes you're outplayed, sometimes the dice don't cooperate, and sometimes it's both. This match it was both.

Here's the match summary:
