Fairy: 1146 total damage for a total of 10 hunters killed

The fact that the fairy got no-retaliation enables it to win this match. But can be different if the hunter got other Double damage attack, I consider it a one time action.

As much as I like it to have inspired others to launch their own Teana grand slam tournaments, and as much as I know I too made some miscalculations in the original one, I fear you'll have to be more careful if you want this "thought experiment" to be meaningful. Some of your results don't persuade me, but I took time to check only the one that struck me as most unlikely.

Let's consider the lake fairies vs hunters match.

First of all hunters do NOT have the double shot talent. However, they still should win easily. Considering 10,000 leadership you line up 1428 LF against 66 H, total health 11424 and 7260 respectively. Damage ranges 1-2 for the LF, 9-10 for the H. Leaving criticals aside and considering average damage, considering relative AT and DE the H always does triple damage, the LF always do 1/3 damage. On a medium grid the LF can't close distance on round 1 so the H strikes first.

Thus we have:

round 1 LF moves, H hit for 1881 killing 235

total health and number of troops: LF 9543 (1192) H 7260 (66)

round 2 LF hit for 596 killing 5, H step away and hit for 1738 killing 217

total health and numbers of troop: LF 7805 (975) H 6664 (61)

round 3 LF hit for 487 killing 5 H step away and hit for 1596 killing 199

total health and numbers of troop LF 6209 (776) H 6179 (56)

round 4 LF hit for 388 killing 3 H step away and hit for 1510 killing 189

total health and numbers of troop LF 4699 (587) H 5791 (53)

You can go on, but since after four rounds the LF have been reduced to about 40% of their original strength while H are still at 80% I think it's pretty clear who's the winner. The only variables are: 1) average damage is slightly limiting for the LF. their first strike ranges from 397 to 794, crit 1191. The first hit of the H in comparison ranges from 1782 to 1980, crit 2970. So the LF could strike lucky, but the H have also a slightly higher crit chance, and their critical is a lot more impressive 2) dust fairy (30%) could change something, but not nearly enough 3) the only real option for the LF, if the grid is very peculiar maybe they can lock the H in a corner forcing them to go melee; no penalties anyway but at least the LF gain counterstrike. Even so, I think the numbers show there's really no chance at all of the LF winning this. I would urge you to take a closer look also at some other results I think smell a bit fishy, like the ancient bear losing to the snake. However I've got no time right now to make those calculations as well, so my gut feeling may prove wrong on that one.
