Board Game Arena

I have played a lot of seasons and I mean a lot. The card pulls in this digital version of game for the player who is behind seem to be heavily waited to help them catch up. Is there a handicap program in the game to cause that? It happens way to often to be just luck.

Hey,

You will not be the first person to question RNG or shuffling on BGA, but here is the thing, human brain is terrible at guessing randomness and tend to remember only bad strikes (refer to confirmation biais and loss aversion to name a few), You need to run a complete statistics analysis rather than claiming "it happens way to often to be just luck", sorry about that.

BGA randomness generation is based on PHP methods (see here: https://boardgamearena.com/faq?anchor=f ... ing_random)

Last thing, can you imagine the efforts needed to implement such an AI to pick up the right cards to help the player behing catching up? Why would volunteering developpers waste their time for such a thing in the first place? Let's be serious here...

Cheers,
Y.
