Last summer, a bunch of us here tried to crack the DP formula. We encountered so many oddities (particularly on the lower end of the DP spectrum) that we stopped trying. There are a lot of moving parts in it (27 inputs at the least, 9 bots x 3 stats per bot); we can assume those inputs come from the numbers on the cards when you go to the initial Team Edit screen. And we suspect the square root of the Defense is involved, though that may have changed (or not, we know about the code monkeys LOL) since the damage formula was updated; it may be logarithm-based now.
