How to find failure rate for each separate event type?

I am trying to find the failure rate for individual events.  Each event has a result which is classified as a success or failure.  For this simple run-anywhere example I would like the output to be: 

Event
              failed_percent
open               .50
close               .66666
lift                    .25

|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="success"
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="locked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="too heavy"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]

| eval Success=mvfilter(match(State,"success"))
| eval Failed=mvfilter(match(State,"locked") OR match(State,"blocked") OR match(State,"too heavy"))

| streamstats count(Success) as success_count,count(Failed) as failed_count
| eval failed_percent=(failed_count)/(success_count+failed_count)
| table Event,success_count,failed_count, failed_percent

 
This lists each of the 7 events separately and the counts always add to the total, not by event.
 
I have tried many different ways to achieve this with no success.  I started with the simple search below and ended up with the search above.  I am not sure how to do an eval(count) on the items in Result.  This is obviously not correct SPL, but I tried | eval failure=sum (|where Result="failed").  Plus it would do nothing to group by Event type.  

| eval Result=case (like(State,"success"),"success",
like(State,"locked"),"failed",
like(State,"blocked"),"failed",
like(State,"too slow"),"failed",
like(State,"too heavy"),"failed",
1=1,"success")
| stats count by Result


I'm not even sure if this is possible.  I could do it with a separate search for each event type, but I want a single table in the end.  I also thought of doing a lot of joins with different searches, but that seems crazy.

Thanks you your help!

@MScottFoley - Try this query:

|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="success"
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="locked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="too heavy"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]

| eval Status=if(State=="success", "success", "failure")
| stats count(eval(Status=="success")) as Success_Count, count(eval(Status=="failure")) as Failure_Count by Event
| eval Failure_Percentage = round(Failure_Count/(Success_Count+Failure_Count)*100, 2)

This worked.  In my tries I was not putting this in the correct place.  

as Failure_Count by Event

I am not sure why you are using streamstats - try this

|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="success"
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="open", State="locked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="close", State="blocked"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="too heavy"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]
|append[|makeresults|eval Event="lift", State="success"]

| eval Success=mvfilter(match(State,"success"))
| eval Failed=mvfilter(match(State,"locked") OR match(State,"blocked") OR match(State,"too heavy"))

| stats count(Success) as success_count,count(Failed) as failed_count by Event
| eval failed_percent=(failed_count)/(success_count+failed_count)
| table Event,success_count,failed_count, failed_percent
