Arena is so blatantly rigged

I’ve had some major unlucky losses before in arena but this one was like unbelievable. Like several actual WTF losses… all of those combined didn’t equal this level of bullshhhery. I have 4 minions one taunt, enough damage on board to kill him next turn. He has no cards and top decks… this guy plays a 5 mana discover card … finds the 3 mana mage card that also discovers two 3 or less mana spells and splits their cost. One of the spells ended up being a create two concoctions. The concoctions he found were deal 3 damage and destroy a random enemy minion. Guess what, on top of the discover into a discover into a discover, with the reduced to 2 mana concoction combo he hits face with the 3 damage and then the 1 in 4 chance taunt minion died… yayyy his 6 attack minion killed me. Un Effing Believable bro. Holy shhh that was like a four lair rng one in a quadrillion play

However unfortunate it was, it does not prove your claim that the game is rigged.

It is simply a fact: The game is NOT rigged.

If you wanted, you could recall an instance where you were “lucky”.

That’s Hearthstone for you. The pendulum swings both ways sometimes your opponent hits the jackpot on the casino and sometimes it’s you that hits the jackpot. The game doesn’t care which.

I think we’re about three generations from the concept of taking personal responsibility for a negative experience being utterly incomprehensible to people. Maybe two.

Arena is 100% rigged now and I’m pretty sure people who buy decks and spend money somehow get better draft cards (I have spent $0 on the game). I started playing arena again after maybe 1-2 years. I would always get on average 8+ wins per run. Ever since I am back i am maxing out at 2-3 wins, every opponent has amazing cards that continuously counter mine. Coincidence, maybe for a couple of games., but this is EVERY game. I think blizzard is a money grabbing “poop” company anyways, and this is just one way of it showing.

I seem to play classes that have only class cards. Played a Mage yeasterday that had all the cards a normal spook mage would have in it. While I can’t even get a single class card that synergizes with any other card.

I agree I believe it caters to those that spend money over the free tickets.

I hate Arena’s, it seems like my opponents get multiple legendary cards and usually I don’t even get one… It’s ridiculous,maybe they shouldn’t even put legendary cards in the pool ifa it’s RNG… I get 0 and go up against a guy who gets 3-4 of the good legendary cards… I started auto quitting when I don’t get 1.

Someone else said it up top, I bet you could come up with some moments you got lucky, but oh no when you lose, the game is rigged. Get outta here.

Here’s an article talking about botting as it relates to arena. In short, these players utilize bots to hoard enormous amounts of gold. From there, these players will leave the arena and keep drafting until they have a noticeably powerful and synergetic deck. This can leave other players feeling cheated (which in a way, they are).

The entire game IS rigged. There are no such things like “luck” and “rng”. Everything here is manipulated and controlled by the algorithm. Discovery options, “random” targeting effects, “random” summoning effects, “random” matchmaking, mulligan, card draw are all decided by the algorithm. This game is just a money making machine with the illusion of luck and skill. There are many players here defending the game because it’s their life, don’t believe them. :clinking_glasses:

Indeed! :laughing: Alas, it is a pain to earn the ability to post images. It’s to do with “trust level”, and you need to be trust level 3. And it’s very easy to lose this ability. For more information, the details are in the link below.

I won’t hold my breath then… pretty sure i’ve exceeded my flag quota… :rofl:

The only thing remotely rigged if you can even call it that about Arena is that we have these bot accounts that keep retiring until they get the god draft before they play any games. You could do the same thing too except the only difference is regular people don’t have infinite gold to dump on drafts.

Fixed this for you.
