Answer:

Loss is the favorable event

Explanation:

In probability, a favorable event is the event of our interest.

Since in calculating the probability of losing a game, the loss is our event of interest, so loss is the favorable event here.

Probability of losing a game =
(number of favorable outcome)/(total number of outcome)

=
(number of losses)/(total number of outcome)

Best Response is Loss is a favorable event.
