My new theory is this. If its early to mid game, and you are down 3+ lands to your opponent , like 3 to 6, chances are you are getting land-screwed and might as well concede.
Yup still bad. and I went through my hopefulness, tried several different deck and got screwed in various ways for about a dozen matches in a row, gave up, switched to RDW and still got screwed for at least 4 more matches before my first win of the day.
Ironically, this could all be saved by simple RNG. They say they use one but it seems the reality is different. We all have seen it. We all know about the 13 land red deck for example. And then there is the horrible matchmaking.
Simply, pick a random opponent from the same tier as me. Then randomly shuffle our decks and let us play. No tweaking. No messing. Whatever they do in an attempt to make things better only seems to make things worse.
If you feel like this about a game, you should probably find something else to play...
Maybe I didn't word it right. What I mean is, to play the game, you need the cards. I'm not going to actually spend money on this game, so I have to farm each day for the gold to get packs to get cards and wildcards. While I am doing that, presumable for a long time, I have to try and be unemotional about the outcome of each game. I am going to keep running into people with pimped out decks, all the sweet cards and such. I just try to ignore all that, lose or hit concede and move on, and remember why I am doing it, to get the cards to one day have competitive decks. Its not about each game. its about the long term strategy. Just keep swimming...just keep swimming. Yes, its a game, but I'm not really playing it yet, because I dont have all the "game pieces". I'm "working" to "buy" the necessary cards to eventually get to play.
I see the same thing constantly. it is like the random generator is not random at all. More like it is designed to screw you or your opponent or both of you over. I just look at this game as follows:
I am a noob. I have nowhere close to the right cards in the right volume to be competitive. To get there, I need to farm. Play every day, earn decks, earn wildcards, maybe get some lucky randoms, and do this over and over again, every day. So, to me, its not a fun activity. Its a job. Nothing personal. I try not to get pissed, but i still do. take a break, and then go back.
