Summon stats update

[BananaHarambe]

Hello all, just wanted to share that there is a new update to the summon stats that applies for Dragon Egg and Young Forest Spirit. Edit: no changes to the game mechanics. Everything has always worked correctly in game for scoring (with Sylph).

Previously the “summon for free” cards did not count for the summon stats, but this has been fixed.

Expect to see dragon summons to increase on average from Dragon Egg counting as 2 dragons alone.

Also, with the young forest spirit counting the free summon for the 9+ plus cards (and stone/rock golem) it commonly summons, expect to see higher average earth and dragon summons (and slightly more wind from Gi-rin and others) in the stats. Water and Fire should not be affected since they are rarely/never summoned for free.

Also, expect to see some games with crazy high earth summons from abusing Asmodeus and Young Forest Spirit to summon golems and other earth cards multiple times for free! I’ve done this a few times and the Earth count was 3/4 lower than it should have been.

Thanks Banana! Do we know whether the stats update is retroactive for old games as well or is it only applicable for games going forward? Hopefully it applies for all history.

And it’s implied but might be good to mention explicitly that this is only an update for the summary stats after the game is over. The in game summon counts have always been correct. So for example Sylph always correctly gave you 2 points for the dragon egg + dragon summons.

https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=679867650 Hi Barrit, here is an example of the summon stats not updating retroactively. This is the Experts Cup Titane Earth Combo Masterpiece game that is available on the stone golem wiki page now. Titane starts with Sylph and scores 9 on it, but only has 8 summons listed. Titane very clearly used YFS two times, one for Stone Golem, one for Rock Golem.

Noted on clarity.
