I won my first 3 games then my final 3 Im beating my opponent 30 - under 7 health and in all 3 games my opponents are able to top deck or whip out some ridiculous combo and win the game.
Also how come when you buy an arena pass you are offered better cards then when you use free gold earned from daily quests.
This game is dead anyways idk why i keep playing it. I remember when there used to be tons of people streaming on twitch now theres like 12. Great job HS on retaining your player base. Pathetic game.
Yes, and they never said it wasn’t.
While I understand that the search will bring up plenty of conspiracy theories, the truth is far more simple. It’s more like a choose-your-own-adventure book; The paths are preset but which path you choose is up to you. Like watching Bandersnatch on Netflix and finding the longest movie path on the first try, it’s not easy to do.
I will say that the game is indeed in a messy state but rigged card draw in arena isn’t one of the issues IMO

It’s not only arena. The card draw in every sh!tty game mode is rigged as f***.
The true statement “The game doesn’t always give me the cards I want and sometimes gives my opponent exactly the cards he wants” does not warrant the inference “the card draw is rigged”."

It’s the same reason why when I shout “six!” before throwing a dice, the probability to roll a 6 increases.
It’s not really increasing, but I believe it does, so if it happens I think to myself “it worked”
“When I win, the game is working fine.”
“When I lose, the game is rigged.”
It’s a KC Shuffle.

I’ve been reading and participating in rigging conversations here for a while and I’ve found that most of the people who believe there is malicious rigging also accept that it’s not always against them. It’s just when their frustrations are the highest and tends to be when they post.
When those 1% chance things happen it blows people’s minds. The fact that HS is currently centred around big swing moves and/or decks that can kill you in 3-4 turns reinforces the idea that things are “rigged” for one player or the other.
If you can’t sympathize, empathize. People aren’t playing this game to get upset and all those that complain are wanting is for things to seem less slot machine and more chess like.
Hearthstone is a slot machine. If you want something that’s not a slot machine, you don’t want Hearthstone. Want something more chess like? Play chess. It’s a great game, with lots of variations. Millions of people play xiangqi and shogi, and large numbers play less well-established variants.
You must be new here. Welcome to the game. When it was created there was thought and care put into most of the cards. There were more options than the 2 or 3 net decks and if you wanted to build your own without the help of streamers, you didn’t get punished anywhere near as badly for it.
I get it though. You like it and that’s okay. Be well.
I’m not all that new, although I don’t go back to the beginning. I first got involved somewhere about the Year of the Kraken and I’ve been in and out since then. It may be more of a slot machine then it used to be, but it’s always been one to an extent. It’s the nature of the beast–all CCGs have that nature.
