Is it just the average of the unit counts at the end of every turn assuming that both players spawn the same number of units?

Suppose P1 and P2 each start with 3 units. P1 creates a unit, now it has 4, and P2 has 3. Then P2 takes its turn, and it also has 4 units. So it goes:

3/3, 4/3, 4/4, 5/4, 5/5, 6/5, etc.

The differential being:

0, +1, 0, +1, 0, etc.

The average advantage is .5.

It'll be GG when you're up against GG of GG.

Thanks for putting it into math form, most of my Outwitters knowledge is in intuition form Tongue
