I'm not "comparing" 3 hearts to anything, I'm just saying that it's fine the way it is, and not "inconsistent and random". Obviously having more hearts would be more consistent, but that would take longer. Even if it's a small change to 3.5 hearts, it all stacks up to take way more time in the long run, which isn't fair to newer players striving for large amounts of wins. We are perfectly fine with 3 hearts is all that I'm saying, there is no need to change it. If you are a great sparrer, you can win or tie consistently with the current amount of hearts. I don't see the problem here.
