Hello guys me and some friends were discussing if changing keys each mq or sticking to the same combo is better?

Iam sure that changing keys is better than sticking to same combo. But not sure what the true odds are.

I wanted to make a poll and see what you guys prefer.

Voted by mistake on same keys, u guys will have -1 vote :P

Not to make this sound like a rant, but it doesn't matter. It's all luck.
No matter how you put it, it's chance. You could very well pass 3 times in a row using the same combo. You could also fail 120 times in a row with the same combo. Same thing applies for those that swap it up.

To answer your actual question, I always change, mainly because it doesn't matter. It's not like there is a certain combo that is programmed to pass more often or less.

For me I end up changing. Sometimes I got got 312 if I'm feeling it :p

Hypothetically if i ever reached a high class I would probably start using same combo just because of superstition and nothing fact related :lol:

Any combo you choose has the same chance as any other combo that is available.

It makes no difference whatsoever whether you choose to keep the same combo or go random

I work on the KISS principle: Keep It Simple Stupid.
123(456) has been good for me, so I will stay with it.

Sure same chance no matter what your combo are, but if u look at the ppl who have reset in the past, it's the ppl who stick to the same combo who got the most resets.

I prefer using same combo over and over again, but some times i like to switch it out (and that would be for a whole season, like this one other ppl decide my combo after ever climb)

dont know, maybe its a fact but my logical is different.

Its like, lets say you dont know when the bus comes but you know it approximately, so you decide to walk around the houses until you think that the bus will arrive.

You can miss the bus because you dont wait where you have to wait for him. Thats imo same like sticking to same keycombo or changing keycombo. I always want to stick to same combo but i always use randy.

Lets say you pick first key and its wrong, next climb you change it, but maybe it was the first key turn and you missed it?

I play for two ladder nows and always was lucky until WL with canging keys, with 5 keys sometimes i have the feeling that its better to stick to one combo.

That bus analogy has no relation to chance. You said you know "approximately" when it will arrive. In this example with keys, there is no approximate. It is more like saying some days the bus will arrive, some days it won't. What days do I want to take a chance to stand out there rather than run/drive/etc.

213 master race!


I seem to have the most luck with 213 even though I know it shouldn't matter...so I just stick with 213.
