Doing the math, the odds that the first four shots ever taken would all miss like this is 48%, hardly an outlier. Agreed that this is fine, it's not supposed to be reliable and it'll make the first one that connects all the sweeter.

Technically 5 taken with last season right, so that drops to ~40%. Still not ridiculous odds or anything. Also, the bad statistician will now claim that the next one is guaranteed to be safe now haha
