The Odds
The odds of winning the 20-win challenge depend highly on your battle win rate. If you can only win 30% of your battles in the challenge, then the odds of you getting to 20 wins are closed to 0.
For players who win 90% of their challenge battles, the probability of winning the challenge is very high — at 62%.
For the majority of the players, in equal playing field (assuming equal matchup), you have a 50% chance of winning each battle. Getting 20 wins for WR 50% is 0.0061% — roughly equivalent to 1 in 16,513! 😱
Better players at 70% Win Rates will still have a tough time completing the event — at 2.0666% probability or 1 in 48 odds.

Methodology
We use the following methodology to calculate the probabilities in this article.
- Completion probability. We have broken down the chances a player has to complete a challenge.
- Calculations. To calculate the probabilities, we have assumed that a player has a consistent Win Rate across the challenge. This isn’t the ideal model because difficulty increases as you advance in the challenge, but it’s a great way to see how Win Rate differences impact the final odds of success.
- 20 wins. There are three final results that lead to a 20-win winner:
- 20 wins, 2 losses
- 20 wins, 1 loss
- 20 wins, 0 losses
- 20-win probability. The odds of winning a 20-win challenge is the sum of probabilities from all 3 results.
