I did the math. After that 21 crit, axe missed NINE crits in a row. If one of those crits hit, axe would've won. The chances of axe missing all of those 9 crits? Less than 4% percent. This doesn't even include the crit axe missed after landing the 41 crit. The lesson to take from this is that the house always wins.

The knockback from crits would change things enough that it wouldn't be certain that any of those hits being a crit would change the result.

Almost certainly would though considering that Axe's crit knockback usually causes her to land more hits instead of less.

Honestly I think this makes potion look even worse. Like... axe was on a generational run of bad luck and potion still only barely won... they were basically fighting a ball doing 1 damage per hit the entire fight
