Does your good/bad luck also comes in streaks?

[Fibonacci_Finch]

Maybe it's how the cards are shuffled, or I'm not sure if there's a hidden karma system, but it just feels like I get streaks of 10 games or so when I always get OP cards to start or pulls the crow, followed by bad-luck streaks where it seems impossible to win even if you're not making any mistakes... Sometimes I'd rematch and get almost exactly the same hand that my opponent had last round, all to make me wonder if luck on BGA is somehow periodic.

Does any of y'all also feel this way?

It's a pretty famous fallacy to think there are too many streaks in random strings of heads and tails. Random noise just be like that bro.

Usually a good-luck streak is broken by a bad luck... like... what else?

Sometimes it's longer phases of good luck and bad luck, but I also have short phases of good luck and bad luck, with intermittent periods of regular luck scattered in it. It just feels so... random.

This game is not chess, there's RNG in it. So of course you would have periods of ups and downs.

Rather than focusing on "I'm in a bad streak" "of course every game now my opponent starts with crow in hand" and then start spiraling, focus more on not being on tilt and causing yourself to make bad decisions.

Same with "I'm on a good streak" "I feel good, however bad I play, RNG is going to save me" and then proceed to make a dumb move that ends your "win streak".

Take things one game at a time. Shit happens sometimes, sometimes in a row. If on tilt, take a break, have a coffee, look at the sky, then come back later.

But the satisfaction when you come out on top at the end, even though the opponent have a very strong start. So underrated...

I have been losing a lot of close games in frustrating ways recently. Some of it because of bad luck, but in almost every one of those close losses, I made blunders that cost me the game.
