There's one point you seem to keep on either ignoring or not seeing the significance of, Clarence.And that's the thing several of us have pointed out:
You have to do more in this game than simply collect VPs.
You also have to avoid losing health.
So your loss did not come down to simply what happened in that final roll, whatever the odds may or may not be.
It came down to your failure to preserve your health.
And that occurred earlier in the game, and over the course of numerous rolls.
You see, because the dice rolls feed directly in to various game states (your VPs, health, and energy) they become connected events, and not simple isolated probabilities.
This means that you can not say your loss came down to a single dice roll.
Rather it came down to the cumulative effect of all the dice rolls, and all the decisions, made throughout the entire game.
King Of Tokyo is not a game of pure luck, like tossing a coin.
It's a game of strategy, skill, and risk management, like poker.
These are the aspects of the game you seem to be failing to comprehend.
