Independently one of our developers was curious about this and worked it out. We also ran some experiments to verify it. The results are fairly similar to grysqrl so that's good!

Ha! Wow - that's great stuff. Thanks, MigrantP!
I think it's safe to say that experimenting on the Ennead is the worst idea ever.
I think I already mentioned that somewhere didn't it?

I mentioned it in my very first post on the forum, you just didn't see it because it was white text.
I posted it on the old forum, in one of the threads that didn't survive. Before I had ever played the game.
I texted it to Christopher before he had thought of The Ennead.

Christopher, does that mean you thought of the Ennead before you could text?

I already calculated all of the odds for Super-Scientific Tachyon getting a match for released heroes. Here they are with WotC added in:
Sentinels 66%
Tachyon 65%
Legacy 60%
Nightmist 53%
Setback 53%
Wraith 51%
Scholar 50%
Guise 50%
Naturalist 49%
Expat 49%
Parse 49%
Visionary 47%
Tempest 47%
Fanatic 46%
KNYFE 45%
Haka 44%
Ra 44%
Chrono-Ranger 43%
Captain Cosmic 42%
Sky-Scraper 42%
Bunker 41%
Absolute Zero 40%
Argent Adept 37%
Omnitron-X 34%
Fixer 32%
Unity 32%

Despite the solid odds for Nightmist and Setback, I don't think I'd ever try this with them lest bad things happen. The top 3 though? Gold.
Nightmist isn't so bad, if you have a reasonable health total. Setback, on the other hand...

Heh, grysqrl actually posted that originally on this thread, post #9 .
He didn't have the WotC heroes or Guise in it
