Does equal speed no longer equal coin flip for going first?

My Leviathans speed, like most everyone else’s, is 184, and I don’t remember the last time I went first in arena more than once in a given a day.
Shouldn’t I be going first 50% of the time? Day after day the last month or so I’m lucky to go first once… today as is often the case, my opponent went first every time, which should be quite rare (6%) in the 4 mirror matches I played.
This is the norm for me now, and at this point, it’s no longer a small sample size.
Are others experiencing this? Am I somehow the 1/1000000 who would have this happen day after day? Or maybe equal speed doesn’t mean a 50/50 chance to go first?

    I'm not experiencing this, I'd say I am going first roughly 50% of the time.
