Dragging out the Turns

Pretty tired with how this game is going, between the P2P decks and the game rigging your card draws when you win too many games in a row.

So I’ve been continuing to play ranked, but dragging out each turn the full amount of time, not playing cards or attacking until I’m almost out of time. Might as well irritate everyone else too.

That would be me because the each game is so boring. Just finished a top deck game by a shaman now I am against a Heal Soo who coined turn 1 drew a card.

Turn 2 play Lightwarden, Play Voodoo Dr, Play Happy Ghoul, Play another Happy Ghoul. Ah yes, so boring is the RNG. Watching Relics and Rarities while patternstone does its thing. I don’t believe people should have such free and instant victories. I believe they should have to earn them just a little.

How many games do you win before the game rigging kicks in champ? 3? 5? 12? 42?Does it change at different ranks? How does it deal with 2 players who are both on a win streak?

Also, I know you wouldn’t have this information since it’s clearly proprietary but I can’t help it, I have a curious mind: why would blizzard care whether any of its players win or lose a game? (Can’t wait for the theories on this one!)

Just interested in getting some info on how this game is programmed.

The game does have a patented AI program which is designed to make you want to do micro transactions. Article was written last year. Some will say well - its not in Hearthstone - can’t prove it. Yes Activision did patent the AI but…

But look at your games man. How do explain the cards flowing regularly and typically in the same reliable fashion? This demonstrates a pattern not randomness. Random would mean no two games alike or at least further apart vs same after same after same after same.

Had a game vs an Exodia Mage. Yep can tell by the cards. Ah he has both frost novas in hand. 2 blizzards in hand. Archmage and Apprentice ready to go, all in under 10 card off the top.And now I get blasted by 4 fireballs in 2 turns for GG. Another perfect top deck. No skill required decks just draw and drop again and again.

Move on to Hunter. Ah, Springpaws in Scavengers and Razormaws. Into 2 houndmasters in the wings with a Unleash the hounds if I need it. DK Rexxar ready to drop on turn 6, a legend 1/30 in a deck always ready on turn 6. Again, the same cards same sequence same play same pattern over and over again in a game that’s is…random?

Winrates being kept at a 60% cap when the decks and even in power. Only being tilted in balance at ranks 20 - 5 or in Casual.

They know people hate losing. Statistics collected over the past decade show yep people will pay to win and pay big. Spend a lot of money to have the advantage. So why would they create such a system? It pays and profits.

You know I lost a game today to a spectral cutlas rogue and I thought I really played badly. I went over the game in my head and thought of two things that I did in particular that were bad decisions that really cost me.

Imagine how much better I would feel about myself if I invented 12 paragraphs of pure nonsensical, fictitious drivel designed to blame corporate greed every time I lost a game. Doesn’t matter how I played, I can’t beat the algorithm designed to make activision money!

@slimjim said it better than I ever could. Sometimes the cards they get are just conveniently too good, while you’re sitting there holding literally everything that won’t help you somehow. But we’ve all been on the other end of this so it’s not like any of us are innocent nor oblivious. You lose 3 or 4 in a row and all of a sudden you’re rocking a great starting hand and your opponent seems terrible.
It’s just the carrot waving in front of your face.
“Don’t quit, look, you can still have fun!”

The RNG is biased, but why punish the opponent? He didn’t do it.

Good thing I’m at a high rank so I dont deal with dip sh**s like you.
