If I'm right, the DP calculation may be underrating HP. So the highest DP may not be the best configuration. There is some variance in the damage taken/given by each card during each round, but it appears to be low. I haven't figured out exactly how that varies. My view on maximizing your min damage is that it would be the same configuration as maximizing average damage. The majority of the variance appears to come from the critical hits, and an unbalanced deck will have a higher variance. The only way to cut down that variance is to balance it, which would only be possible by taking out strong cards and weakening it too much.
