Rigged
The draw luck seems riggged. Too often I get everything I need or the opponents do. I’d love to believe it’s just random but there is no way. Everyone applauds this game for balance. I believe EA rigg...

II agree it is rigged. Too often a weaker player gets cards that save the day from conjuring. such as a battlecruiser with strikethrough. I've even benefitted from this rigged system. It happens to stop players get fed up with losing. If the packs gave better cards it probably wouldn't need to happen, but then EA would not make as much $$$. Instead when you lose 5 games in a row it says why don't you buy a pack of cards. I've had great decks, with cards 4 of each card, and yet the card draw can really screw your game. Luck, yes it plays a part.. but even bad luck is not that consistent. I've played the game a long time, and very consistently to have made these observations. Look at player who have all the cards, they are less likely to lose, and yes some of that is down to their card draw luck, but alot of the time if you've all the cards you won't be buying anymore until the next release.
This is definitely a biased perception of randomness. Try out any other card game and you will see similar effects.
Also, take into account how a business works and how consumerism works. Most people, if they are losing and feel that the effects are due to bad luck or a rigged system will stop playing the game and switch to another, not spend more money. What makes most people spend more money on a game is when they feel they are being successful in the game and progressing will give them more enjoyment.
This game is very skill intensive and skilled deck building and playing will consistently mitigate the luck elements, this is why those who reach UL can do so repeatedly without issue. I've seen those lucky conjures and occasionally, I lose a game due to one of them, but it doesn't happen very often, making it just an exciting thing when it happens. I have both an F2P account and an account where I've spent the equivalent of a video game on it and in both the results are the same.
Maybe there are some parameters that we do not know, who knows? and who can assure it?
but this is a bad thing? for example with Cornucopia almost always generates another legendary or a card that costs 5 or more, but is that paying 10 suns for a card that creates another 4, costing 1 sun each one, really is not worth it, maybe this has been modified so that you really feel the power of that card.
some time ago I opened a topic where in December I got many Jolly Holly through High Current Voltage, I even started several games in 'random game' 'simply by playing the berries and I kept getting them, even after all this, it could have been just coincidence.
