Why people use Combat Balance Checker
Combat Balance Checker for Game Design Math
With this Connector, you stop guessing. You can feed the engine two profiles and get a data-backed report on win rates and turn durations instantly. It turns "I think this is balanced" into "I know this is balanced because it won 50.2% of the time over 1,000 runs."
What Vinkius changes
You get statistically significant data on combat balance instead of just vibes.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Combat Balance Checker.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
How can the Combat Balance Checker help my game design?
It provides hard data on how different character profiles interact. Instead of guessing if a change works, you can run thousands of simulations to see the actual win rates and damage metrics.
Can I use it for real-time combat systems?
This capability is specifically designed for turn-based combat or stat-based RPG systems where you can define profiles with attributes like speed, attack, and defense.
What does statistically significant mean for my game balance?
It means your results aren't just based on a few lucky rounds. By running 1,000 iterations per request, the capability ensures that the win rates and data you see represent the actual behavior of the game mechanics.
How do I know if a character is overpowered?
You can use the audit feature to check a specific matchup. It will flag any fight that is statistically skewed or broken based on professional stability standards.
Does it work for any RPG system?
It works for any system where you can define character profiles. As long as you can input stats like speed and attack, the engine can simulate the outcomes.
Can I see how many turns a fight lasts?
Yes, the capability provides average turn counts for every simulation. This helps you ensure your combat pacing feels right and doesn't drag on too long.
How accurate are the simulation results?
Every request executes 1,000 independent combat iterations using randomized rolls for critical hits to ensure statistical significance and account for RNG volatility.
What attributes can I compare?
You can compare any profiles containing HP, ATK, DEF, SPD, critRate, and critMult. Use simulate_combat to see how these stats interact.
How do I know if a matchup is broken?
Use the audit_balance capability. It classifies matchups as Stable, Skewed, or Broken based on whether the win rate stays within acceptable professional bounds.
