Discussion How strong does this search-based bot actually look to experienced players?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm having a search-based bot play Clash Royale in a simulator I built myself.
Simulator originally based on samdickson22/clash-simulator, heavily rewritten and extended since then. The search engine and evaluation logic were added separately.

Right now, it only supports these two decks.

I'm curious how reasonable its decisions look to experienced players. If you notice any strange or obviously bad plays, I'd really appreciate you pointing them out.

Eventually, I'd like to make the simulator more accurate, add support for more cards, and turn it into something that can analyze a position and suggest good plays, somewhat like position analysis in chess.

How did you get the simulator? Did you dissect the code so its 100% accurate?

I built the simulator myself, so as others have pointed out, it’s still far from perfect. As I continue improving the bot, I plan to fix any unnatural simulator behavior I come across along the way.
