Scope of the Arena comparison model

Set both teams’ Cookies, stars and slot order. With My build off, the model uses level 1 and selected stars. With it on, saved Cookie levels and stars are read. It does not reproduce all equipment, encyclopedia and Sugar Rune bonuses from the final build calculator.

The model derives attack, survival and tempo modifiers from skill traits and runs simplified combat at 0.5-second steps against the first surviving target. It is not the official combat engine or a measured win rate. Positioning, action order and hidden rules can change real outcomes.

Entered power approximates a base-stat scale of entered power ÷ model-estimated power, with a minimum of 0.1. Entering 20,000 against a model estimate of 10,000 gives a scale of 2. It does not reconstruct actual equipment or mean double the win probability.

Keep the opponent and input mode fixed, changing one Cookie or star level at a time. Unknown opponent builds remain unknown, and recommended stars are a search result within this model. Do not treat it as proof of actual Arena effect eligibility or victory.
