To get a rough idea of the strengths of the different personalities, we've run a little tournament and here are the results:
| Personality |

Rating |
| NagaSkaki 4.00 |
65/74 |
2300 |

Notes:
We've assumed that NagaSkaki has a rating of 2300
The rating of the last two personalities is probably even lower, because they could only win against each other and not even draw a single game against the rest
If you play free slots or poker you will notice that they are starting to introduce a similar ratings system by which to rank players.
