Actually, you’re the one who absolutely without a doubt doesn’t comprehend the statement you keep quoting. Like you’re seriously whooooosh missing what he said right over your head.
The bottom line is people who assert the game is rigged beyond simple MMR to match players are salty about losing and that’s the sum total of the problem.
The rest of us work on playing better and that’s why we aren’t hardstuck in gold and silver.
So years ago I was playing Blackjack in Reno. The new dealer was awful. He’d miscount the hands and pay us off on losing hands. He’d draw when he was at 17 or 18 and bust. This guy sits down next to me and loses a couple hands and starts to get up. I said, “No, no… this is the right table. Trust me.” Next hand my new friend hits on 15 against the dealer’s King and draws a 7. Dealer shouts, “21!” and turns his hole card up for 20 and pays out. “I guess we are at the right table!” Sometimes you just gotta find the “right” casino.
Is not personal, I’m sorry that it comes across that way. If people are saying you don’t understand, misunderstand, etc, it’s an opportunity to rethink what people are saying.
Then, because I didn’t know the exact answer, but I knew that the game is designed to keep you around 50%, I said to ask the people on the forums that do stats.
The Scrotie jumped in and said (para) “Nah, I aint gonna look up no stats for you”
Yes. Because that much error is impossible if you’re thinking about the issue clearly, as I’ve already described. It’s like saying a day has 25 hours, getting laughed at, then saying you were only off by 1.
To address my quote: average winrate across the entire Hearthstone population will always equal exactly 50%. But that’s an average, and some players will have winrates below 50% and others above. Matchmaking by rating matches the players with winrates below 50% against other players below, which means against easier opponents to make it easier to win. It also matches players above 50% against other players above, which means harder opponents to make it more difficult to win.
Well; my beef with the matching has always been far more simple than the claims here.
I maintain that if you change cards you will change the immediate likelihood of opponent decks.
ie; if you tech for Druid, you will see less Druids, at least initially.
Explain please? 'Cause i’m not sure how you prove/disprove this other than recording every match you play, while switching out cards and noting the first match received.
Even that seems flawed tbh.
In fact, I vehemently disagree with Scrotie more than I agree with them, but when someone is correct you call them correct. It’s called intellectual honesty.
They are 100% correct and you’ve missed what they’re trying to say to you.
