Battlegrounds is rigged

Try searching " Predicting a Hearthstone opponent’s deck using machine learning" to find informations on the AI i was talking about.

About loosing when deck trackers forecast a win rate higher than the loosing one, i’m not talking about once in a while. If the outcome is not 100% win (which means that literally, you can’t loose) i see the outcome of hundreds of matches tending towards the loosing side. I have been loosing multiple times with 90% win rate (tens), with draw and loss divinding the rest . A couple of times even with more than 95% win , and loss was 0,5% (that means that probably, there was only a single possibility of loosing of all the possible outcomes). I wouldn’t say it’s incredibly obvious, but really fishy, just as much to move the mean. And i’m talking only about fight turn RNG. Preparation RNG is even more rigged: i don’t know how many times I had to reload the tavern for 7-8 times to find a single minion of my tribe when i was the only one using that, only to see it appear as soon as i couldn’t buy it. At the same time, when there is multiple people with the same tribe, I can always see the other get the first choices and get the triples done turns before me.

Defo something going on with this mode. Dont agree with the F2p aspect, but when u get offered no eles as chenvala, only able to use hero power as patches to get pirates ( since none are being offered). Or when u on tavern 4 and u just keep getting offered 1 / 2 drops for 3 rolls, something defo is going on with mode

I’m noticing this also. Especially over the last week or two I’m not even finding triples.

You provide no evidence to support your claim.

I see a bunch of people who don’t understand how to optimally play the mode complaining about low rolls on feast or famine heroes.

Like, the tribal heroes either steamroll the lobby or die in flames, but they are rarely in the middle. The whole risk is that you won’t get a good start in your tribe, but the wrong way to play them is to force that tribe. You have to play what’s in the lobby not what you hope is in the lobby.

I took first place as patches last time I played him… as mechs - because those were the best options I saw.

If you refresh the tavern repeatedly before turn 13 you will die fast and early. You can’t hunt for trips until you have an endgame scaler up and running or you die.

I can’t get cards to get a good hand going at all. Frustrating losing all the time and staying at stupid 5000 ranking

What do you do in the first seven turns? Do you pick tribes? Best stats? unsure?

After 5k lobbies are dramatically faster than under 5k. Knowing when you can power level and when (how) to stabilize are the keys to climbing.

Try to get cards of the same type

So that’s wrong.

You should not find a tribe until you find a core piece to that tribe. You can’t decide to play, for example, elementals before you have either nomi or lightspawn because you won’t scale fast enough without them.

This is why tribal heroes are so feast or famine. When you hit the tribe you got this, but when you whiff on the core you are dead because you don’t have a hero power.

Also, idk if you’ve looked through the ranking of heroes, but some of them are dramatically different power wise in the current meta.

The other thing is Mechs are overpowered atm, but they don’t work without the right parts.

The best pirates are scally scam.

tl;dr: Stats regardless of tribe and tier quickly to get to the best minions.

Lol, figured that was the case. Going to take a long to adjust I think.

In a lot of cases i would go:

Turn 1: Buy minion (preferably one, that gives a bonus if you sell it or summons a token)
Turn 2: Level up tavern
Turn 3: Sell 1 minion and buy 2 (or buy one and use heropower)
Turn 4: Buy 2 minions
Turn 5: Level up Tavern and buy a minion
Turn 6: Buy 2 minions (you can reroll 2 times or use heropower)
Turn 7: Level up Tavern and buy a minion

In most cases i just buy the minion with the best stats for this first 7 turns.

Of course this can change based on some factores (like your hero. Sometime you want to use your heropwer on turn 2)

This works for me with 7k rating. But seems not good enugh for more than 7k.

Hearthstone Battlegrounds is 100% rigged. Blizzard isn’t even shy to hide it so when you have ppl defending it, makes me question how few games they must have played. We’ve seen time and time again from players who for whatever reason made charts to show how they can predict exactly what will happen - IE Baron sniped after taunt goes down, the percentage can’t be looked at as random anymore. For each chart someone with a tin foil hat made, there is zero from those who question the guy with the tin foil hat. It’s just the way it is. Remember, the Earth is also flat to some of these guys. That says it all.

Totally rigged. Tested with over 100 games and when you buy pack (any pack) you mysteriously get minions of some value, but after 10 or so games all your minions morph to idiots, who all attack to the worst target ever. With possibility of 99% of win you will start losing for this “randomization” Totally rigged to the core, do not play this game.

the fraudulent situation is not only related to the battlegrounds but it is related to the whole game, everything is rigged, especially the paid modes

Telling us not to play Hearthstone, on the Hearthstone Forums is vandalism.

The game is not rigged.

I just hate how the game suddenly went to climbing to tier 6 by turn 2 or else you are guaranteed bottom 4. Hyperbole, dont be that guy and say “you cant get to tier 6 on turn 2, hur de dur”… I’m not one that usually ever gets to tier 6 in the first place for the last few years. Very rare occasions. Now it seems that every single scaling minion is in that tribe’s tier 6. Yet I consistently run into boards with every minion with upwards of 30/30 stats and Ive had to scrape with every interaction I can muster to get a single unit to have double digits… and its only the turn we finally get all 10 gold… I normally had a 5500 to 6500 rating for the last couple years… now I’m barely scratching 4000… Its just ridiculous how many matches go without a single triple or even finding any key combos for any tribe in the game lobby let alone any key combos for the tribe im trying to go.

Sure would be nice if they released BattleGrounds Classic. lol.

So every pro company poster telling people to “quit,” “take a break,” “maybe this isn’t the game for you” is committing vandalism.

Going to save this one.

source: …nothing.

Pretty much.
