Is one's success in this cryptobotanical competition based on one's own qualities? Or is it left up to the prowess of the plant? I ask because I cannot find a way to advance past level 19 in the plant's quality, and if that is the case for everyone, then the result should be truly random (as I assume most people start the competition at level 19).

"The very least you can do?" Dear Sir, you can always do less. Never underestimate the capacity of people to do little when they ought to do much.
The point is taken, however. It certainly pays to assume the worst.

You're also neglecting the fact that it costs much less to increase your Plant quality when it's greater than 11 or, particularly, 15. Since losing a duel reduces the quality, this can make the additional expenditure rational, even before taking into account competitive advantage and deck optimisation.

Jem Mace is at level 6 of the tournament, and has nobody to challenge. One the way he encountered maybe a dozen active players at all levels.
My characters are all competing at level 10 or 11 and are succeeding about half the time. It seems that anyone waiting to achieve level 19 as advised is still waiting.
