You had a great game, but the rigging algorithms have destroyed what could have been an amazing game. It should be completely randomized, but its basically decided who wins before the game even starts. And im out just deleted the game, Ive played since it came out and paid a monthly amount but Im done with it now for good!

Alright, bye then.
I personally do not buy the idea of the matchmaking being rigged in a way that automatically determines who wins from the start. That’s assuming a level of control that would be noticed immediately by everyone, not just disparate comments every now and then. Pros certainly don’t seem to recognize such a thing beyond “streamer luck”.

You’ve only just figured this out…
It’s AI that’s doing “random” drawing of the cards. AI is a program it cant really do random. For example you’ve a balanced deck with low medium and high cost cards, you “randomly” get all high cost cards as your “draw” your opponent gets all low cost cards that they can play early on giving them the win as they can damage you with out retaliation, did the game decide to give you high cost cards only?
Do you know the seed of the battlegrounds lobby and what cards everyone else is going to draw or even have available to them?
No?
Then the fact that a computer cannot do truly random number generation is irrelevant. For you and everyone else, it is as good as true random generation.
Same applies to regular Hearthstone. Blaming the game for bad hands is like blaming the washing machine for making loud noises when you put a lot of zippered hoodies in it. You want to reduce the risk of getting cards with high costs? Put less of them in the deck or have ways to draw more/reduce their cost.

OP is correct. BG is controlled to a certain extent. There are also Bots in BG who spawn any cards in that they want.
This is why I am constantly calling for recording of matches that can be played back later. If StarCraft can have replays, why not HS?
I have played BG games where an opponent has zero and I squash said opponent and next round he/she has 500/500 minions. That’s not possible, except for a bot.
