Only 11 out of the 68 tournament squares have posted more than a million casualties, with 48 having fewer than 100 attacks. The graph reveals the lack of competition for many squares in the tournamanet, indicating that back-room wheeling and dealing are likely a larger part of the strategy than actual combat for many alliances.

Hucbold seems to be using game battle mechanics to their full extent! Cool to see that kind of dedication.
And many of the others are good too. The Top 30 especially

This is interesting, but I don’t like the elimination of the small battles and players with less than 100k kills, the players especially. This sample is ~34.81% of the total kills. I’m interested in the other 65% as well.
I also think that this estimate probably underestimates the value of rolling elite hits, since elite cavalry squads can trade at almost 1:5 without breaking the threshold for significance.
Nonetheless, interesting data and I appreciate whoever worked it out.

Alright, having made my complaint, it’s time for the age-old adage: if you want it done properly, do it yourself. 😛
Those other 65% of attacks I mentioned? As far as I can tell, almost entirely hits with elite cavalry or infantry. At least, the overwhelming majority appear to be hits where the attacker had 60 or 150 losses, which would require some massive coincidences to throw the numbers out much.
The implication is that, please correct me if I’m wrong, the above statistics are the best kill ratios *without the use of elite squads*. Which is also an interesting statistic and in a way increases the size of the achievement, but it does change the nature of the beast.
Please correct me if any of this is wrong. I’m quite tired from exams and studying, so I could be completely failing at the statistics here.

…it looks like I may be failing completely here. Don’t mind me, I might be able to sort myself out tomorrow I guess.

Pinging a tourney square with elites is one slight step above rat killing in the scope of illy lameness.
Not sure this list should be applauded or felt sorry for.
Good grief

They are perhaps also the most cost effective way for small new player to make any meaningful contribution to a tournament? Not everyone is a mighty warrior like you good sir 😉
A single elite squad might not make any noticeable dent but I’m sure a hundred of them hitting the same target from all over will.
PS: Thanks for the number crunching, I always enjoy these stats!

Take number one in the ratio, Hucbold as an example.
He could never reach that number if he wasn’t using elite hits. My guess is that all his hits have been elite hits with fully equipped squadrons of the terrain he was attacking.

By the way: I think Jolly Roger Kafka deserves some credit, despite not featuring on the list. He’s contrived kill ratios in excess of 100:1, taking out 32K defenders with only a little over 3K soldiers himself. And I think that’s only the most spectacular hits.
